The women's hockey selection show continues to be an embarrassment and I want to know what we have to do for these student athletes to get treated with respect bc that show wasn't it.

It was mistake after mistake after mistake and nearly no one had their name pronounced correctly.

Wisconsin wins their 10th regular season WCHA title
February 8, 2025 at 10:06 PM
I believe UW clinches outright WCHA title with ending regulation tied Sat or Sun.

#Badgers are 17 points ahead of MN, which has 6 games left, so a max is 18 points.

So, if UW ends reg tied on Sat or Sun, MN will be at best be 13 points (-17+5-1) behind UW with 4 games left.

Reading it now, this 2001 article from The Onion may seem like it was mocking the main character, but it wasn't. It absolutely captured what it felt like to be overwhelmed by the scope of suffering.

Bob Uecker hit .200 over six years as a backup catcher and turned that into 10 television shows, six movies, a fairly regular spot with Johnny Carson and 54 years calling games for the Brewers. That's quite a life.

RIP Bob Uecker. Never forget the time he and Bob Gibson got in trouble for holding hands during the team photo.

Advice from friends often is horrible.

“Do what YOU want” but accompanied by zero nuance.

Like it’s great to follow your heart, but it has to be ethical!

I’m not feeling good about Wisconsin vs Nebraska tomorrow. Tough matchup. Having seen Nebraska in person — wow. They’re just so so so good.
My predictions for the elite 8.
