About one week ago, a very good friend asked if I would be interested in putting a bid in on some Packer tickets for the November 1 game. Let's be honest...did she even have to ask? I mean who wouldn't want to be present and accounted for to see one of the most controversial and historic events...

Call it a sign of flattery, call it a sign of laziness, but throughout my blogging career I have definitely been influenced by the work of ESPN.com's Bill Simmons, and have written some of my columns in a similar mold. Clearly, I have been nowhere near as good as him, because he is getting paid millions...

Earlier this week The New York Times reported that former NFL players have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or other memory-related conditions at rates much higher than the national population. In a study commissioned by the league, a phone survey of approximately 1,000 former players found...

The moment most Wisconsin sports fans have dreaded for as long as we can remember (well, at least since last summer) is quickly approaching. Only a few more days until the biggest NFL showdown of the year, heck maybe ever, takes center stage on Monday Night Football. Unless you've been living under...

As the newest entity to Sportsbubbler.com I thought I would give you, the readers, a little glimpse into the sports filled world that is my being. I can't remember a point in time when I didn't like sports. Growing up with two die-hard Packer fan parents it was just a way of life to park in front...

Favre has been the face of the NFL since 1996...

Brett Favre is obviously a great topic of debate. Everyone has feelings on him one way or another, and it's fascinating to hear what everyone has to say about it. The discussion quickly turns to Packers' general manager Ted Thompson and his role in the Favre fiasco. I will agree with anyone that...

Just under one year ago, I wrote an article on this site thanking Brett Favre for a million memories and wishing him well in retirement. I fawned over Favre and his skills and made him out to be some sort of walking incarnation of Christ. There was nothing bad that could be said about him and I would...

Now I know that no one can look at the title of this blog and not have very strong feelings one way or another. And that's okay. There has never really been any middle ground when it comes to personal feelings about Ted Thompson and the off season soap opera with Brett Favre did nothing but cement...

you treat Brett like he owes you more entertainment! you forget he contributed to your entertainment for 16 years already. Brett is also a human being, folks! He’s obviously a sincere, sensitive, down to earth person, which everyone seemed to love about him before… because of these traits, he was obviously...
