What a great time to be a Wisconsin sports fan.
The Milwaukee Brewers are in first place in the National League Central Division by 4 games over the St. Louis Cardinals and are about 14 games over .500.
Steve Stricker and Jerry Kelley, both from the Madison area, are in first and second in the PGA championship after the first round.
In NASCAR, Matt Kenseth of Cambridge, WI., has pretty much secured a spot in NASCAR Sprint Cup Chase and has won 2 races this year.
Paul Menard of Eau Claire, WI. has a really good shot at qualifying for the NASCAR Chase and won the Brickyard 400 a couple of weeks ago.
The Green Bay Packers are set to open up the pre-season, in defense of their Super Bowl title from earlier this year. The odds makers list the Packers as a 4-1 favorite to win the Super Bowl again.
The U.W. Badger football team is favored to have another great season in Big Ten.
All in all, if you are live or are from Wisconsin, it's been a great year. And it sure beats being a FIB.
The Las Vegas Badger is about politics, humor, sports, reality shows in Las Vegas, especially Pawn Stars and anything else interesting. While I live in Las Vegas, my heart is still in Wisconsin. Thanks for visiting the blog and feel free to browse the web site.
