A sports anomaly

All you Wisocnsin sports fans out there, please do not get too ahead of yourself. Yes the Brewers are once again in First Place, yes the Packers won, and yes the Badgers won, but there is much more to the story.

  • The Brewers are still being coached by Ned Yost and we still ahve Ray King in the bullpen and Counsell as our first guy off the bench. I am hoping they pull this off and make the playoffs, but they probably do not deserve to. I also fear that they totally embarass themselves in the playoffs in front of a national audience.
  • The Packers won the first game of the year for the first time in 4 year, but they are still very bad. They scored 10 of their 16 points off of special teams, and scored another 3 off of interception. Their offense is terrible. Its all rookies except Driver, who usually has 2 players covering him, and gets leveled every time the ball comes his way. This team will not be so lucky every week, and will play better teams than the Eagles and they are going to have a long season.
  • The Badgers barely beat a terrible team. They're #5 in the country and should be blowing out these terrible non-Big Ten teams. They're going to have a hard time in the Big Ten playing teams like Penn State and Ohio State.
  • This is Wisconsin, where no sports team ever does anything good to get excited about. This weekend was just the exception, not the rule, don't get used to it.

One thing to remember about the Badgers is that they have a habit of playing to their competition.
