The United Soccer League and the city of Green Bay are exploring bringing men’s and women’s professional soccer to Northeast Wisconsin at a time when the USL’s planned expansion into the Milwaukee market has stalled and is all but dead at this point.

Titletown is in the running for a franchise in the same tier as the dormant bid to bring a pro team to the unrealized Iron District.

JJ McCarthy's real nickname is wind chill because the Vikings keep racking up negative yards this half. #Packers

Unsurprisingly, watching the Bucks during this stretch without Giannis.

Bucks might be one more loss away from bringing in a consultant for Doc

Gotta say: an antler-based 3-point celebration by a Buck feels so obvious that I can't believe we hadn't seen it before now. Salute, Myles Turner.

Happy birthday, Jim Paschke! This place is up for grabs #Bucks

From Hang Time to Prime Time is one of the best NBA books I've read and focuses on all of the off-court stuff that hasn't been as discussed when it comes to the growth of the league. If you want to understand the NBA as a business, this book tells that story as well as any that I've come across.
Still $8! Cheap!
Amazon, for some reason, has the book available for $8. Help Bezos get another Dan Flashes shirt. www.amazon.com/Hang-Time-Pr...

The #Packers take on the Giants this weekend. One team is down bad, and the other team is the Giants.

We also unleashed our new Hafley camera.

I had a wonderful time at the Southeast Wisconsin Festival of Books today! Sharing a panel with Todd Rosiak and Tony Walter while talking Bucks, Brewers and Packers was an absolute blast and it was great to talk about how Wisconsin's pro teams intersect with one another. #Bucks
