No player encompassed what football fans love about the game more than Tiaina Seau, Jr.
The Wisconsin men’s hockey team handed out its nine player awards Thursday at a team gathering at the Kohl Center.
A little more than six years ago, the Wisconsin men’s hockey team transformed Lambeau Field into a hockey venue, skating to 4-2 win over Ohio State in an outdoor game no one who saw it will soon forget. Then, in 2010, the Badgers moved the Kohl Center’s atmosphere a few blocks up Dayton Street, topping Michigan in the Camp Randall Hockey Classic.
At no other time of year does Green Bay Packers’ general manager Ted Thompson shine brighter than during the NFL Draft.

The Gaslight Anthem released a new single yesterday, from their upcoming major-label debut Handwritten, on Mercury records. The song is a return to some of the more punk energies from their debut, but it still maintains some of the Springsteen-esque qualities that engineered their success.
Adolf Hitler was a dictator-tot. Jesus hates you for masturbating. We can fix Africa through laughter. By this point, you are either laughing or nodding disapprovingly at the comedic styling of 21-year-old Robert Burnham. Known affectionately to the world as “Burnham”, he singlehandedly placed the world of comedy into a chokehold from his bedroom piano five years ago. Equipped with a tie-dye T-shirt, a happy disposition and a post-Catholic-school allure that would make any humor-seeker uncomfortable, Burnham has transitioned from viral video phenomenon to beloved comedian for his well-tuned satire.
The Wisconsin men’s hockey team has officially signed on to play rival Minnesota in an outdoor game at Soldier Field in Chicago next February, according to a report from the Wisconsin State Journal Thursday.
The story starts with a sandwich bag that “brims with weed.”
Record Store Day always reminds me of my love for physical media, and this year was no exception. One of the best parts about the event is all of the singles that would otherwise not be released. Be it the Warner’s “Side by Side” series or a heart-shaped Neon Trees single. All of the songs are classics and most feature my favorite part of the single: the B-side.
With one week and four practices to go for the Wisconsin football team before its spring game next Saturday the Badger coaches are getting a look at the players competing for playing time on offense.
With spring practice now over halfway done, the Wisconsin football team is looking forward to its spring game on April 28, and, to this point, head coach Bret Bielema likes the way his team is shaping up.
Six current and former members of the Wisconsin wrestling team and coaching staff hope to earn a spot on the U.S. team for the 2012 Olympic Games in London at the Olympic Team Trials in Iowa City, Iowa.
Few would argue that the National Hockey League’s postseason isn’t one of the best spectacles in sports. Two full months of all-out, emotionally charged hockey and an uptick in the quality of play certainly makes the games fun to watch, but so far during this year’s playoffs the physical intensity has been amped up even higher.
There are some songs and bands on my iPod that I won’t readily admit to. Well, in theory.
The 2012 Wisconsin Film Festival is finally here, and featuring more films than ever over five days, from Wednesday through Sunday. The festival is a remarkable opportunity for Madisonians to see a side of the indie film world that usually requires living in L.A. or New York, right here in our own backyard. To get your cinematic tastebuds salivating, I’ve selected the five films from this year’s lineup that have intrigued me the most:
The end of a band is always a sad thing. Music plays a huge role in people’s lives, and for a band to call it quits may not seem like a big deal if you’re not a fan, but the hope that maybe there’ll be just one more record means a lot to some fans.
It’s no secret that the sport of hockey has a concussion problem on its hands. From youth all the way up to professional ranks, the injury is becoming more prevalent as the sport is played at an increasingly faster and more physical pace. That is what hockey fans pay to come to the rink and watch, but at what price?
A little more than a year ago, I had the chance to see a film called “Not Just A Game: Power, Politics and American Sports.” It’s a documentary co-written by Dave Zirin, a sports columnist and writer for the progressive magazine The Nation, in which Zirin takes on the conventional wisdom that sports and politics are inherently separate entities, and challenges the notion that athletes should stay away from taking political stances.
Wisconsin men’s hockey junior defenseman Justin Schultz made history, becoming only the second two-time All-American blue liner in program history after the American Hockey Coaches Association (AHCA) announced the teams Friday.
