It’s been a busy offseason for the world champion Milwaukee Bucks. Though they’ve retained their starting 5 and overall core, this latest iteration of the Bucks is starting to look nothing like the squad that won them a championship just a few months ago. Of the players who saw rotational minutes in the NBA Finals, for instance, PJ Tucker, Bryn Forbes, and Jeff Teague are no longer with the team heading into next season. Of course, this is not at all meant to imply that these names are great losses or that the inability to sign them back is some…

You can admit it, you were freaked out after week one. Any Packers fan that says they weren’t even a little concerned would be lying. The defense, with their new coordinator, looked worse than they did last year. Aaron Rodgers looked like he had regressed to 2018, and Aaron Jones, with his huge new contract, was a complete non-factor. Well, as Gandalf said to Théoden, King of Rohan, “Breathe the free air again.” The Packers are winners, 1-1 on the season. Let’s erase the memory of week one from our minds. Moving forward, it won’t matter much. Was the defense…

After a busy offseason, the Milwaukee Bucks roster looks primed and ready to battle to defend their 2021 NBA Title this coming NBA season. Even when continuity post-championship is the priority, no team is ever truly able to stay the same after a title run. The NBA is a business at the end of the day: assets need moving, money exchanges hands and tough decisions await team management. With the team looking at options to compete for the 15th roster slot in the forthcoming training camp, it’s likely this Milwaukee Bucks team is what it is for now. As with…

During the 2021 season, we have seen some surprise teams at the top of the standings, and we have seen some teams who have been a major disappointment. For instance, the biggest surprise this season has arguably been the San Fransisco Giants. During the shortened season in 2020, the Giants finished with a record of 29-31, which was 3rd best in the NL West. Then during their last full season in 2019, the Giants finished with a record of 77-85 which was also 3rd best in the division. Considering the Dodgers and Padres bolstered their rosters in the offseason the…

It’s a question that many fans will not soon let go: Who let the dog out? Was it a basketball move anticipating a sharp decline? Was it skewed priorities from ownership in the wake of a historic title run? The dog, after all, was integral to bringing the city of Milwaukee its first championship trophy in 50 years. Anyone who watched the NBA Finals should know how important PJ Tucker’s defense and hustle were to the six-game win over the Phoenix Suns. Losing Tucker hurts the Bucks in more ways than one. First reported by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, PJ is…

Semi Ojeleye has been the subject of much scrutiny among Milwaukee Bucks fans as of late. His signing, first reported by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, came on the heels of the heartbreaking news of PJ Tucker’s move to the Miami Heat after ostensibly questionable choices by team ownership. And instead of welcoming the 26-year-old as the team’s latest signing, pundits immediately made him out to be Tucker’s cheap replacement. How valid are the comparisons really, and what does the Bucks’ new acquisition bring to the table? Here’s a quick look at what Milwaukee Bucks fans can expect from the 37th pick…

With the Green Bay Packers entering their 102nd NFL season after a tumultuous offseason, they need to look in the mirror. Aaron Rodgers reported to training camp Tuesday while the rest of the NFL expected him to be gone or retired by this point. Davante Adams reportedly is willing to restart contract discussions. Randall Cobb is reportedly on his way back to Wisconsin. Everything is seemingly falling into place, right? Here are four goals the Green Bay Packers absolutely should be focused on going into the ’21-’22 season: Winning Number Five The number one goal for the Packers this season…

Today’s NBA likes to glorify individual moments and personalities. Just look at the Milwaukee Bucks’ 2021 championship run, for instance. Fifty years after the Milwaukee Bucks won their last world title, Giannis Ugo Antetokounmpo poured in 50 points to bring the Larry O’Brien trophy back to Wisconsin. It was poetic justice in every sense of the phrase for a franchise that stood by its core pieces for years. Amidst all the noise, Giannis and the Bucks finally had their vindication. Carrying the load alongside the Greek Freak prior to his incendiary supernova of a game were his co-stars in Khris…
