In the late 90s, my sister Denise was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. In 2015, we learned she had cancer. She never let either define her. She never let either defeat her. Denise left this world today. She is in a better place with no more pain. May God bless you sis ❤️❤️

Broadcasting is a subjective business, but from my corner of the world Mike Tirico is next level. Beyond the obvious of his rules knowledge & textbook situational awareness, he gives you the impression there is no place he’d rather be. He knows it’s a great gig & he makes it fun.

I hope true Badger fans understand how lucky we have been to have Paul Chryst as coach. I hope Badger fans embrace the good fortune of having Jim Leonhard here to answer the call. He easily could be elsewhere. He’s opted to stay here. I believe he is born to handle to tough time
“This place means a lot to me.”
“I feel like I can take this opportunity and help this place grow. That’s why I came back a number of years ago. It’s why I haven’t left.” - Jim Leonhard

One more thing-these players have gone through a lot this year, now meeting with their 3rd coach. Many of them lost a good friend from a senseless act of violence. They lost a running backs coach they loved. They’ve played on. I imagine emotions are raw. Hope we can respect that.

My admiration for Paul Chryst & Jim Leonhard will never change. Two of my favorites. I don’t know Luke Fickell personally(yet), but I know those who do. They rave about him, both as a coach & as someone who simply is a good dude. From one Ohio native to another-welcome to Madtown

Covering sports for nearly 35 years helps me understand how incredibly hard it is to win. Few reach the summit. The vast majority never come close. Tonight hurts, but I believe the Brewers will be serious contenders for the foreseeable future. They will be back. Heck of a year.
