Rodgers on his way

Week 1, first time as a starter, first game without hall of famer QB Brett Favre on the team, prime time game, division rival, enormous expectations.  The only way Aaron Rodgers could have more pressure tonight would be if he had been the one telling Favre to take a hike over the Summer.  The entire football . . . → Read More: Rodgers on his way

Bloody Sunday…

Not a good start to the NFL season for some teams.  First and foremost, it looks like incredibly bad news for the Patriots as Tom Brady hurt his knee early against the Chefs.  Great googly-moogly… It’s still not clear whether he has a torn ACL as Yahoo and others have reported.  There is a small bit . . . → Read More: Bloody Sunday…

A few big games this weekend

Yeah it’s week 1, but there are already some games that matter.  First impressions count, right?

Jacksonville at Tennessee
The AFC South is always going to be a tough division, but the Titans might be going the wrong direction.  Their defense is stout and their running game should be very good, but the QB is a major liability.  . . . → Read More: A few big games this weekend

Busy weekend!

Friday 8/22:
Brewer game!  I love Friday night baseball.  Something about the atmosphere just makes it so much more fun.  I think it’s something about everyone finally getting out of work after a long week and just letting go and enjoying the game.  Brewers played the Pirates.  We had great seats, it was a fun game and . . . → Read More: Busy weekend!

Rodgers looks pretty good in first start

Yeah, it was pre-season.  Yeah, it was agains the pitiful Bengals.  Yeah it was just one quarter.  However, Aaron Rodgers still looked pretty darn good.  A lot of his incompletions and his interception were the fault of dropped passes.  He looked confident and did a good job progressing through his reads.  You could definitely see the . . . → Read More: Rodgers looks pretty good in first start

More signs the Packers are serious about moving on

In some of the best news I’ve heard since “Favre-gate” started, it was reported today (I believe Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal-Setinel first broke the news) that the Packers are shopping Favre around.  It’s likely a sign that the team is worried that Brett Favre might actually report to training camp.  Word is they spoke . . . → Read More: More signs the Packers are serious about moving on

What if Robin got his shot?

Batman and Robin.  Super hero, understudy.  Always has been that way, always will be.  Robin is always an afterthought compared to Batman, because Batman is Batman.  It has nothing to do with what Robin has done or hasn’t done.  In fact, unless you are the type of person who really studied the comics, you don’t know . . . → Read More: What if Robin got his shot?

Favre Comeback – Where do I begin?

Not that it can possibly be a secret at this point, but the word is Brett Favre wants to come back and play again.  The Packers don’t want him, they don’t want to release him either.  They want him retired.  Sorry Brett, should’ve thought of this before you announced your retirement.  Bummer for Brett, but that’s . . . → Read More: Favre Comeback – Where do I begin?

Yahoo! Ranks Bears Offense as Useless in Fantasy Play

During their pre-season fantasy rankings of teams, Yahoo! picked the Chicago Bears as dead last for fantasy value.  This should come as no surprise, as the Bears have clearly shown that they have no interest in winning games or even scoring points anywhere inside the next 4 years.  The team is clearly trying to trim as . . . → Read More: Yahoo!
