Sweet!

The Wisconsin Badgers are still alive in the NCAA tournament! They have made it to the Sweet Sixteen and will face Davidson on Friday! The other Wisconsin team, Marquette University, didn't do quite as well. They lost in second round competition on yesterday.

The Milwaukee Indians?

The Cleveland Indians have moved their series against the Los Angeles Dodgers to Miller Park. All tickets are $10!

What I really want to know is will the sausages race? LOL!

ETA: I found the answer! The Klement's Racing Sausages will race! Woohoo!

Wisconsin Badgers #1

For the first time in the history of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the men's basketball team is ranked #1.

They are #2 in the ESPN poll, but honestly why should a team with two more losses and one of them to the Badgers be ahead? Gotta love those polls...LOL!

Sunday's game will be interesting! It is #1 Wisconsin at #2 Ohio State!

He was real and stood for what he believed in. Those that played with him always talk about the impact he had on their lives.

I am really ready for the football season to kick into gear. The Packers are playing tonight. It is just a scrimmage against each other, but it's still a sell out at Lambeau. It's not even a real game and they still fill the seats!
