He never gets hurt. He never gets in trouble. He's donated millions to make his community and world a better place. He's a dedicated family man. If you're still looking at something to pick on LeBron James for, that says more about you than him. 🐐 #NBA

By waiting until Lorenzo Cain accumulated 10 years of MLB service time, he gets a fully vested pension, worth about $7,500 per month. A true class move by the @Brewers to make sure LoCain got his full benefit before letting him go.

Here's what I'll never understand: How a historically marganilized group of people can trigger someone else just becuase they are getting a little of representation? Equality isn't a pie. Just because you get some doesn't mean I get less. Life is hard enough, man.

There is an absolute TON of blue here tonight.
I’ve been covering Packers home games now for 30 years and I’ve never seen more of the other team’s colors in the stands at Lambeau than tonight. Ever.

Maybe it’s an unpopular opinion, but I’m far less concerned with the Chiefs winning three straight NFL championships than I am the whitewashing of the fact that the Packers have already done it twice.

Wisconsin Football needed to evolve. It needed to think bigger. It needed fresh, aggressive leadership. If the players are upset, I get it. No one dislikes Jim Leonhard. But Fickell immediately raises the bar. His hiring is the most un-Wisconsin thing they’ve ever done. 👍

The last time Steven A. Smith “covered” the #Bucks in the playoffs, he and Wilbon never left the press room…they never actually saw any basketball played. I was there to witness it. This? This is embarrassing. Don’t show your faces here. It won’t be pretty.
Just saw this on First Take and I'm not surprised whatsoever. Milwaukee has not covered on ESPN for decades. We don't want yall in Milwaukee when we host the NBA Finals!!

The @Dame_Lillard experiment in Milwaukee. A big swing, but I’m glad it happened. Do I wish the result was different? Sure. Do I blame Dame? Obviously not. Do I blame the @Bucks? Nope. Sometimes big swings don’t land as you want them to. But I’ll take big swings over passive ones

Your rule is wrong and violates what football is. No one cares what your book says. This is a trash rule. TRASH. No one argues with keeping the quarterback safe. When the QB has the ball, he may get hit. Until this is fixed, it’s hard to take your game seriously.

What the absolute hell happeend at the end of the Badgers game? Juwon Howard went AFTER Greg Gard. Holy wow. Punches were thrown. Howard threw hands at a UW staff member. Howard should be suspended for the rest of the year. He's the damn coach. Wow.

A lot of folks jumping off the Luke Fickell bandwagon may need to be reminded that at the same time in his tenure, Barry Alvarez was 4-11.
These things take time. Fickell inherited a mess. It’s going to take time and investment. And also some patience. Better days are ahead.

Love seeing how big mad the rest of the NBA is over the Bucks as champions. Bottom line: this is the single most grueling postseason in sports. You have to win 16 games in 4 best of 7 series over two months. No one backs into an NBA Championship.
No one.

What an absurd fine. If this is tampering, then the @nba should just ban coaches/GM’s etc....from doing these kind of studio shows altogether. Good grief.
The NBA announced today that it has fined the LA Clippers $50,000 for violating the league's anti-tampering rule.
The fine is in response to comments made by Doc Rivers on Kawhi Leonard.

We're now seeing why Giannis doesn't want to leave Milwaukee. It doesn't always pay off, but this Bucks front office takes BIG swings, they're always aggressive, never complacent, and are incredibly creative in trying to compete.

Now I’m getting conflicted reports of how much a full pension is. Looking for updated numbers. It’s significant, and important. The main point remains. The Brewer made sure he got there. That’s what’s important.

P.J. Tucker will rightfully never have to buy a drink ever in Milwaukee. He’s a great defender and a TOUGH player.
But he’s 36, played pro ball in 8 (!) different leagues and averaged all of 2.6 ppg with the Bucks in the regular season.
Chill out people.

But that’s not the award. Being a great guy isn’t part of the criteria. I’ve lost some respect for Hub, if I’m honest. I’m not saying voters have to give it to anyone in particular. But when the reason is this specious, that smacks of being childish and petty.

Everyone is free to make their arguments, but no one will ever convince me there was a worse trade in Wisconsin sports history than the Ray Allen to the Sonics for an aging and unhappy Gary Payton rental; a miserable, awful deal commenced 19 years ago tonight.

CC Sabathia will very likely be elected to the @baseballhall tomorrow. His three-month turn as a Brewer in 2008 may have been the greatest half-season rent-a-player stretch in the last 50 years. Nearly single-handedly ended the Brewers 26-year postseason drought.

How many more incidents are going to have to happen before we recognize that AB has some serious medical issues that need to be addressed? Maybe it’s bipolar, maybe early onset CTE, maybe it’s a combination of a number of actual, medical issues. I’m no doctor, but he’s not right.

Menomonee Falls just banned a bunch of books because you know, we’ve fallen into America’s dumbest times. One of them is Slaughterhouse Five. A book I read in middle school and fell in love with. Show me any society that has ever benefited from book bans. I’ll hang up and listen.

Very sad to learn of my friend Davey Nelson's passing. No one who ever met him had anything bad to say about the man. He had been suffering for a while, and now he's at peace. His enduring legacy? The boarding school in South Africa he founded for kids who were orphaned by AIDS.

Let me preface this by saying I have no quarrel with anything Marquette in any way. But when MU fans chirp at UW’s football issues, I’m reminded how one-sided this rivalry is. Because I promise you, no one in Madison thinks about anything Marquette except for one day in December.

When I graduated from “Buddy!” to “Doogie!” by Bob it was a watershed moment in my life. The hours of my childhood spent shooting hoops listening to him on the radio; the hidden transistor under my bed at night. He made me love baseball and love broadcasting.

So I just read the “apology” but what it doesn’t address is the specious criteria you use to come to your conclusion. If you truly feel whomever was more valuable, vote for them. But to hold a childish grudge against someone & withhold your vote for them for that is unacceptable.

Bring Nelson Cruz back to Milwaukee to end his career.
No downside. The price is right, he's a great mentor, and the Brewers (while their offense has been better in the last week or so) still could use another bat.
