    If Uecker is indeed up there calling the shots, you know that it's going to be an epic story.

    When a player comes off the field with an obvious concussion after a hit, how is there not some sort of targeting? It clearly looked like the Iowa defender gave him a forearm to the head.

    Mike Greenwell passes away at age 62. Had huge shoes to fill, and he filled them well. Career .831 OPS and .303 BA. In 5,166 career plate appearances struck out only 364 times (to 460 walks). Injuries took their toll and he retired at age 33.

    They're sitting at 2-4, 0-3 in conference, with #22 Iowa State coming to town (who I've never been sold on as a top-25 team and last week showed why, but still). According to 24/7, their 2023 transfer rank was #1, 2024 transfer rank was #8, and their 2025 transfer rank was #19. (They've also had top-25 freshman recruiting classes three years in a row.) Great transfer classes aren't a sure thing for success. 1-8 in games against top-25 teams with the one win coming against a TCU team the first game of 2023... who then went on to have a 5-7 season. So really, winless against every good team they played.

    I wasn't surprised. If he was on the roster, I think there was a plan to pitch him and you want him pitching at home. A young rookie pitcher who can be a bit wild needs to be set up for success, and the best way to do that is to pitch him at home where he has the crowd behind him and not against him. Pitching on the road... probably best to leave that to the veterans. Rookies can easily melt down in that environment. They had a backup plan in Chad Patrick if Miz wasn't sharp. Made a ton of sense to use a well-rested bullpen at home and then save their ground-ball starter for Wrigley where he can mitigate the winds as well as the crowd reaction from home runs.

    Let's give Murph some credit where credit is due. Use the bullpen for a home game, save Priester for Chicago where his tendency to get ground balls can take the wind out of the equation.

    If we can get this ump to call a strike a strike, we'll be doing alright

    As was his bench coach picking his nose after giving Greg the one finger sign.

    Chad Patrick bustin' it 97/98 out of the pen? Good grief.

    He didn't transfer in until after spring practice, so he may have been behind in the learning curve on the offense. He also had a season-ending injury and may not have been healthy enough to participate in football activities until fall camp.

    Purely subjective. I don't find anyone jumping at the Nortwestern or Rutgers or Maryland jobs because they're in the B1G. If you can find quotes from coaches that support that, I'll acknowledge. The objective part is that Oklahoma State has been a better program than UW for the last decade, and that is not debatable. What time period would be relevant for this discussion?

    September is the worst. But October is 4th worst and August is in the middle of the pack.

    Sell them on Facebook Marketplace. Post on social media to your friends/family that you have tickets for sale. Post on NextDoor or other local neighborhood social media sites. Tack up a sign on the bulletin board in the break room at work. And you don't have to pay seller fees that way. StubHub/Vivid Seats/etc. aren't the only way to sell your tickets.

    Oklahoma State finished top 10 in 2021 and played in the Fiesta Bowl that year. They were also top 20 in 2023. Wisconsin hasn't finished in the top 25 since 2019. Oklahoma State has finished in the top 20 six times in the last 10 years, Wisconsin four. I think you're selling Oklahoma State short.

    They gave a big (at the time) extension to Davante Adams after he got a serious concussion on a blatant head-hunt from a Bears linebacker. I know that Doubs has had multiple concussions, but I don't believe that either was as bad as the hit that Adams took. That being said, the science is starting to show that it's more about quantity of concussions. The fact that they have fewer draft picks over the next two years is all the more reason to extend him, one less position that they need to plan for. Remember that 3/$30M is basically baseline for any FA WR now, and pretty much all NFL contracts are structured to be 2-year contracts if need be.

    A lot is spent to cater to stupid people who inherit stupid wealth.

    That sounds like an execution issue, not a play-calling issue. And what's MLF supposed to say? "Yeah, Kraft screwed up by not even bothering to look where the ball was spotted which cost us several seconds in getting set, and Love screwed up by dumping the ball off to a RB who couldn't get out of bounds." Of course he's going to publicly take responsibility because he's never going to publicly throw his players under the bus. He may say something completely different privately in practice and in film review.
