NFL Free Agency

The lockout pushed back the free agency period so when it came to an end shit went down. Now that most of the dust has settled we can take a closer look at how each team fared. Notably, the Iggles signing Nnamdi and Jenkins, McNabb to the Vikings, Sydney Rice's head scratching move to Seattle, the Packers chillin, Barber to the Bears, John Clay a Steeler, etc.

Free agency. What say you?

Disciples Fantasy Football

So, myself, j-webb and chris gotti were in classic form at chasers last night when we began to discuss the first annual disciples of dayne fantasy football league. After careful deliberation on the matter we decided on starting a keeper league, and more importantly, that the name of the most coveted trophy in fantasy sports shall be... The Dale. Named after the most legendary man to ever walk the earth. Boom Bitches

Big Ten Football

This morning on Mike and Mike they talked about a recent Big Ten Preview article (they blocked ESPN at work so I'm handcuffed a bit right now but I can find it). Apparently it has the Badgers picked to win the Leaders and the Huskers winning the Legends. It also mentions a poll of best coaches in the Big Ten with Bielema edging Ferentz for the top spot.

Last evening on the Badger Hour on ESPN Radio (FM 100.5) they were discussing how unrealistic the National Championship talk was for this team. They argued that National Champions have nasty defenses and they cited the '03 OSU, LSUs d-line, USCs linebackers and several others as examples. We all know that Wisconsin is doing an awesome job recruiting and developing on the offensive side but it seems that the defense is not keeping pace. It seems every year that only one guy on the defensive side of the ball is drafted high in the NFL (Watt, Levy, e.g.). If you look at past National Champions this number is closer to three or four.

There is no doubt Wilson and the offense are going to score points, but can the Badger defense put them in the top five of the BCS? Having Borland back will be a huge help but I would like to see a couple more studs emerge on defense. What do you think about the Badgers coming into this year?

Baseball Predictions

There are still about 60 games to play this season but it is never too soon to take inventory on our teams. How do we think our teams have done so far this season? What do you think the next 60 games will be like? Would you like to see your team make a trade before the end of the season? Let the games begin...

Welcome, Gentlemen

This is the first post of what I hope becomes a great blog. I created this as a forum for us to talk sports, talk shit, and get away from work or school for awhile. This can be as good as we make it. The more we follow and post, the better this site will be.

I plan on posting a general topic to spark discussion at least once a week. Let me know if any of you want would like to become contributors as well and I will gladly make you an administrator. I encourage everyone to post or comment as much as they can. This blog will be valuable in staying in touch and planning things such as the Rose Bowl/National Championship trips and the First Annual Disciples of Dayne Fantasy Football Draft in Las Vegas (we're doing it...). Spread the word to any of your friends that may enjoy talking sports with the bros. First discussion topic will be posted shortly...
