I'm not sure what geography majors do when they finish college, but obviously they don't end up working at ESPN.
Friend of the program and lifelong Minnesotan Bdogmarvelous caught the pictured error on Sports Center yesterday -- a rather shocking imagine of the outline of Minnesota labeled as "Wisconsin" in some ...

I'm going to preface this post by saying I'm not a Green Bay Packers fan. I have no allegiance to the team whatsoever.
After the first four games of this season, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has proven himself to be the best signal-caller in the NFL.

OK, so my Week 1 forecast was a bit of a mixed bag. I had low expectations for Santonio Holmes and he basically pulled his pants down and showed me how wrong I was.
But come on, Santiono and his snake, only had one 100-yard receiving game all last year. How ...

Ah, TheBaker's fantasy football expertise. It's a Rumors and Rants' tradition. OK, so I didn't win the league last year. I inexplicably finished second (in a 12-team league) despite having a loaded roster. But that's how it goes in head-to-head leagues. Sometimes you put up 58 points when 80 is ...

Here's a thought that hasn't gotten a whole lot of traction in the whole Brett Favre-Packers-Aaron Rodgers fiasco: Maybe the situation will work out well for both teams. Huh. Seems kind of nice.
Both quarterbacks acquitted themselves well in their regular season debuts. Favre led the Jets to a win and ...

It's been a long, long offseason for all those associated with the Green Bay Packers. You might have heard about a guy named Brett Favre. But let's not rehash. Some of us are still bitter.
Season openers, after all, are about new beginnings. And no, Roy Munson, that's not the new ...

While the summer is great and all, it kind of sucks on the sports front. Everything slows down to a crawl with the lengthy basketball playoffs and the slow-paced trudge that are the dog days of the baseball season. But just around the bend is what likely comprises the greatest ...
