It’s Zimmerman (Dr. Z If You’re Nasty)

“I’m a senile old man. Don’t know what I’m saying or what I’m doing. It don’t matter much none anywhoo, because Sports Illustrated pays me just the same. That’s they way we does things in the sports journalism game.
“See here my NFL Power Rankings for this week. Patriots! Colts! A mess of them other teams, [...]

Dr. Z Can Go Screw Himself

Not tough enough? Whatever, old man. We’ll see what kind of song you’re singing next week after the Packers get win number five over the Redskins.

Badgers & Packers: Worst Of The Best?

If you look at the standings of the Big 10 and the NFL, you’ll see that both the Wisconsin Badgers football team and the Green Bay Packers are undefeated and at the top of their respective leagues. Looking at the polls and power rankings, though, you’d think both were having just mediocre seasons so far.
The [...]

Another Win But The Badgers Fall In The Polls

There was not a lot of love and respect for the Wisconsin Badgers from the pollsters this week. Despite overcoming some first half challenges and beating The Citadel by two touchdowns, UW fell to #9 in the AP poll and remained at #7 in the coaches poll. To echo the sentiments of a commenter on [...]

Party Like It’s 2004: The Badgers Are Fifth In The Nation

The AP and coaches polls both came out today and both agree: The UW Badgers are the fifth best team in the country. These are some lofty heights; I hope no one gets a nosebleed.

The first AP poll, which has USC #1 of course, agreed that UW is seventh best [...]

Preseason Poll Is Out: Bring On The Haters

The 2007 USA TODAY coaches pre-season poll came out today, so I guess that means college football is really underway now. Low and behold the Wisconsin Badgers got a little love from the pollsters and placed seventh in the rankings, behind Michigan but ahead of Ohio State. Bring on the haters and the non-believers [...]

Oh My, Ohio!

Way to go, Ohio State. So, should we have that debate again about why it should have been Michigan vs. Buckeyes for the mythical national championship? Looks like they should have been playing for bragging rights in the Choke Bowl.
I not really sure what to make of the meltdown tonight in Glendale, though congrats are [...]

Who’s Riled Up About The BCS? Not Me

The final BCS rankings came out last night and it seems that someone got robbed. Or not. I guess it depends on how you look at it.
Say what you will about Florida’s merit as the No. 2 team in the country and the BCS as the right system for determining that fact, but the system [...]

Let The Bitching Begin

Do you suppose Will Ferrell crapped his pants when Eric McNeal intercepted John David “Big” Booty’s pass, sealing UCLA’s 13-9 upset win over USC today? If anyone has video of that, please upload it to YouTube immediately.
So now that the Trojans have been eliminated from the mythical national championship picture, the debate has really started [...]
