  • We could stands it no more!

    Badgers can beat Purdue but not James Madison? The first half of the Badgers game against James Madison U. last night was excruciating. Embarrassing. Triggering! Need a Disturbing Content advisory. The Badgers were shaken, not stirred. Flustered. Tried to play at the same frenetic pace as the Dukes of Harrisonburg, who will now move on…

The defending national college football champion Georgia Bulldogs versus the only undefeated team not invited to the final four college football playoffs, Florida State. A ballyhooed match-up. (Bally WHO?) Number 4 Seminoles v. #6…
