Happy Whatever You Celebrate

I think that is going to be my new greeting for this time of the year. Enough of that talk. For the love of whatever person or thing you look to for guidance. Let's talk sports.

Girls Basketball - In probably one of the most complete games I have seen out of the RHS Girls this season, they took it to CVille 55-33. Big game Erin Lind and Taylor Wurtz. Wurtz as many of you know is being looked at by a couple of schools including Green Bay, Minnesota, and Michigan. Well Kevin Borseth Michigan coach showed up to watch the Ripon Girls manhandle Cville. Taylor "no pressure" Wurtz delivered one steal shy of a 3-dub (Triple Double - Points/Rebounds/Steals 10 or more per category) More importantly she played what I thought the most team basketball of the season. We all know she can shoot but it was nice to see her dish and look the floor. Also Erin Lind has anchored this team so far this season she is averaging a Dub Dub with points and rebounds, but more importantly has not gotten into foul trouble which plagued her a bit the last few years. Our thoughts go out to Kaycee Kolberg who went down with a nasty knee injury in Omro last Tuesday. Poor girl I feel horrible for her.

Boys Hoops - Well the win over Waupaca was nice but the lost to Xavier not so nice. I have yet to see a team as quick and physical as Xavier. Crisp passes, quick cuts, open shots. TEXTBOOK! Sean Dugenske is getting hot again in the point department, and the solid play from Mitch and Casey is great to see. Let's hope for good things.

Wrestling - Some day our schedules will align and head coach Mark Bradley will join me at halftime to talk wrestling. His grapplers are doing awesome with a solid core of some upper classmen walking the new guys through the life of high school wrestling.

What up!

Hey friends! Hope all is well. We are knee deep in snow and basketball and wrestling as the Winter Sports season is upon us. Couple of thoughts right now on some teams.

Girls Hoops - The depth of this team is incredible you don't lose a whole lot going down the line. The 1 2 punch of Lind and Wurtz has been kicking, but the play of Morgan Werch and Calla Schnell Harrison and the senior leadership of Carli Hron in your starting five is huge. I am looking forward to great things from this team. No pressure though! Ha!

Boys Hoops - After a win against C-Sport and a whopping by C-Ville the Boys team gets to face Berlin this week in the Berlin Gymnasium. I say bring it on. What a test. I have been impressed with the play of Andrew Cline who is new to the system but certainly not new to the game. He is a transfer from Berlin so it will be interesting to see how that goes for him. Tigers appear to me to be just a little timid in their shot taking but that comes with game experience and practice, something I am sure Coach Vander Plas will address

Wrestling - A big win over Winneconne a tough match in the Andrew Wallace Tournament but the Tiger grappler push on. Some big days from Peter Schroeder who went 4-0 and Travis Bender and Corey Kemnitz with 3-1 records in the tournament. Coach Bradley will join us soon during halftime of a game to talk wrestling.

This week the NFL is morning the loss of Sean Taylor from the Redskins. What a terrible story. A troubled pass but turning his life around and shot by some teenagers and killed. Just horrible, it's days like this, that snaps you back to reality.

Sixx AM: Life is Beautiful
Burl Ives: Holly Jolly Christmas
Hell Yeah: Alchohaulinass

Im Baaack Baaack Im Back in Black

What's up? How you been? Long time no speak. I have actually had a few requests to bring this blog back again so here I am. I will try to update as often as I can. In this blog I will talk about the things I usually don't get to cover in great detail on the air. Chances are I may say some things I shouldn't and I am alright with that. Send your comments to me I will be happy to respond. Here we go

Wrestling - A new conference and some new opponents should be fun. I wouldn't want my worst enemy to have to wrestle anyone from Freedom!

Girls Hoops - How far will they go? My prediction another New London match up in the Sectional Finals. This time the Tigers on top!

Boys Hoops - ????? Everyone has questions. How do you replace a guy like Scott Gillespie. I think some super sophomores are going to have to step up this year.

Packers - Just keep winning

Vikings - Ya you see correctly I am writing about the Vikings. I was the guy on draft day who took some rookie running back named Adrian Peterson and now I look like GM of the Year. His injury should only sideline him for a bit.

Warm up Music - Mark my words we will hear Crank Dat by Soulja Boy at least 637 times during Basketball warm ups. I will be keeping the Crank Dat Chart to document the number of times it is played during the year.

This Week's Musical Picks
Timbaland and One Republic - Apologize
Chris Brown & T Pain - Kiss Kiss
Five Finger Death Punch - Ashes

Until next time... Rock on \m/
