  1. Yovani Gallardo?
  2. I would like to see the Badgers beef up the OL, too. That seems to have been one of the core issues for the past three years.
  3. It seems like the Badger guards will dribble into trouble, panic, and then jump pass into no-man's land. I was getting very frustrated with the TOs in the first half. I didn't seen the Nova game. I don't know if it was the same thing causing them to have 16 TOs in that game or not.
  4. Sounds like "promotion" like in soccer. That would give them incentive but might also pull in recruits from the Transfer Portal if they know they will be in the tourney next year. There would probably have to be some type of limits put on it, though. The team would have to be in the top 25 next year if they win the tournament this year as an example. You wouldn't want a 3-8 team in the First-Division Tournament 😉
  5. Thanks, Jim. Last time I had seen him, I had mentioned that. Thank you for reminding me... and encouraging me.
  6. I found out yesterday that a friend of mine from high school who was about 2 years my junior died of a heart attack. I would see him once in a while in person and chat. I don't spend a lot of time on Facebook. I looked on Facebook and saw there was a friend request from him from a few months ago. Wow...
  7. Tulane and James Madison got their lunch handed to them. Not a surprise at all. Notre Dame was probably better than either of them.
  8. DraftKings or Caesar's would push for something like this. We all know that Notre Dame wouldn't lower themselves to such standards. They are much better than that.
  9. Una Vajagic enters the portal. A little surprised, but they have a lot of talent coming in.
  10. In game 1, the passes to the setter were spot on. In game 2, the Badgers started beating themselves with a bunch of service errors. After that, Kentucky served better / Wisconsin wasn't able to pass as well. That didn't give the setter many options. Kentucky set up their block more consistently when Wisconsin wasn't as consistent. Kelly Sheffield has a very, very good thing going at Wisconsin. It is certainly fun to watch, although sometimes on TV, they use terms that it took me a while to learn. Perhaps a drinking game? "Out of system!" --- Drink! "Overpass" -- Drink! Sheffield and Mark Johnson (Women's hockey) have built a great legacy for women's sports at Wisconsin.
  11. Interesting article on Milwaukee freeway history: https://onmilwaukee.com/articles/milwaukeefreewayhistory
  12. Wasn't he part of the Thuggee tribe? You know, Mola Rom?
  13. Broadcom (AVGO) down 11% today even though they had impressive earnings. Ouch. The 5Day chart looks the same for NVDA. Tied at the hip they are....
  14. Caught up on Tracker on CBS / Paramount. Getting a little darker... nice! Picked up The Diplomat on Netflix. Only watched season 1 right after it came out. Just started season 2. My (new) son-in-law said I have to watch Landman. Thoughts?
  15. C'mon... UConn didn't have the Air Raid.
  16. We knew this was going to happen when the Haslam family became part of the ownership group. They destroyed the Browns, now the Bucks. https://haslamsports.com/teams/milwaukee-bucks/#:~:text=In Februrary 2023%2C Dee%2C Jimmy,Lasry's stake in the Bucks.
  17. Yeah, but they had the easiest strength of schedule (SOS) up to the point he was fired. After that they had the hardest or second hardest SOS. That was one thing that was mentioned a few times, but wasn't really focused on because that really didn't fit the narrative. That doesn't mean that Rivers was / is the man for the job, nor does it say that Griffin wasn't the guy.
  18. Let's GO, AVGO!!!!! Broadcom and NVidia are attached at the hip, so it seems.
  19. Up to #2 in the USCHO Poll: https://www.uscho.com/rankings/d-i-mens-poll #2 in the NPI (still?): https://www.uscho.com/rankings/npi/d-i-men Q: is Pairwise different than NPI? I know they are related, but didn't know if they were really the same thing.
  20. If Bucky wins this weekend, maybe there will be some reflips with the recruits? I really like how the program has turned around. There is passion that I did not see at the beginning of the year. Maybe Fickell didn't forget how to coach, but he might not have known what it means to be a Badger. Let's get it done against the rodents!
  21. Was at the game on Friday night and seeing Giannis get hacked vs. Ball's flopping was crazy. Pat Murphy in the front row stoic as ever, though... 😉
  22. Point of order (and hopefully not treading on a political line)... Taxes were recently raised in the City and County of Milwaukee to avoid a fiscal cliff mostly attributed to pensions. https://reason.org/commentary/public-pension-costs-continue-to-drive-up-milwaukee-taxes https://wisconsinexaminer.com/2023/07/27/milwaukee-county-approves-0-4-sales-tax-increase-to-avert-fiscal-cliff/
  23. Some other fun ones: Eggs vs. Aggs Wisconsin vs. Wesconsin Then there are the Canadians -- what's that all aboot?
