Milwaukee Bucks: Fear the Deer!

Posted: 14th March 2010 by Adam Lindemer in NBA
Raise your hand if you thought that the Milwaukee Bucks would have 36 wins by mid-March and have a fairly tight grip on the five-seed in the Eastern Conference. Even I have to keep my hand down, because I thought the Bucks would barely squeak into the playoffs in the weak East. I'm in awe of what the Bucks have done already this season, and I'm sure all the analysts and prognosticators ...

John Salmons Proving To Be Perfect Fit for Bucks

Posted: 28th February 2010 by Adam Lindemer in NBA
John Salmons has played seven games with the Milwaukee Bucks since coming over in a deadline deal that sent Hakim Warrick to the Chicago Bulls. Since the trade, Milwaukee has gone 6-1, winning its first six games since acquiring the 6' 6" 30-year old from Chicago. When Michael Redd went out earlier in the season with a torn ACL, his second such injury in as many years, the Bucks needed someone who ...

Posted: 18th December 2009 by Adam Lindemer in MLB
The Milwaukee Brewers recently signed catcher Matt Treanor to a minor-league deal, in hopes that he will compete for the backup role out of spring training. Milwaukee already has its full-time catcher in 38-year old Gregg Zaun, who was already told that he will get the majority of the starts behind the dish. Zaun was signed when Jason Kendall was let go to free agency and quickly signed with the Kansas City ...

Charles Woodson Draws Attention of NFL:Too Bad He Doesn’t Want it

Posted: 14th December 2009 by Adam Lindemer in NFL
Ever since he won the Heisman Trophy in 1997, Green Bay Packers' Charles Woodson has been trying to live up to the hype. Whether or not he's lived up to the other people's hype is irrelevant,áall that matters to Woodson isáhowáhe lives up to his own standards. Before the Green Bay Packers played the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving last month, FOX aired a piece on how Woodson recently donated $2 million to ...

Who Is…Spencer Havner?

Posted: 1st November 2009 by Adam Lindemer in NFL
Unless your a fan of the NFL'sáGreen Bay Packers or the UCLA Bruins of college football, you might not know who Spencer Havneráis...until now. Havner has made a little bit of a name for himself in the NFL, as he caught two, yes two, touchdowns passes from Aaron Rodgers, in the biggest game of the year for them. Granted, Green Bay lost 38-26 against the Minneota Vikings Sunday afternoon in Brett Favre's ...
Brandon Jennings hasáonly played two games in the NBA, but already the league is finding out exactly how talented he is. Jenningsáwas given slackáafter he graduatedáhigh school, when he decided to hop on a plane to Europe and play ball overseas, rather than spend a year in college like aáGreg Oden or Kevin Durant. After a year, he came back to the States, whereáhe was drafted No. 10 by the Milwaukee Bucks. It ...

2009-10 Milwaukee Bucks: Work Hard, Play Hard

Posted: 28th October 2009 by Adam Lindemer in NBA
That's the slogan for the Bucks this year, and in a blue-collar town, what more can you ask for. But there's more to the NBA than just playing hard though, you need talent, and the Bucks are slowly starting to acquire that. It may not be LeBron or Kobe talent, but Milwaukee has the players that know how to get the job done. Let's just hope they can do enough to improve on ...

A Packer for Purple?: Green Bay Fans, It’s Still OK to Like Brett Favre

Posted: 29th September 2009 by Adam Lindemer in NFL
I know there's a veryálarge percentage of the people reading this giving me the "Boy, you must be crazy" look right now. In all honesty though, Packers fans can still like the old gunslinger. I've been a cheesehead for nearly 20 years, and even though he's now wearing a different color with that gold, I can still call myself a fan of No. 4, the player. No, I'm not a traitor. It's not ...
