Badgers either going to the Final Four or shooting 5/32 from 3 against the 12 seed in the first round and losing by double digits

If you’re ever wondering why wins and losses aren’t a QB stat

This is why

This dude played his fucking ass off

One of the best games of his career

And he just got sold in one of the most disgusting fashions

Jordan Love has been that dude and he’ll continue to be that dude

[Jacob @coach_Wiss]

👀 👀 something about defense and championships #cobrakai defense!

@22CoachMoe @D3Direct D3 allows athletes to obtain a top tier degree, while also being developed by fantastic coaches and lets players compete at an elite level. It also opens tons of doors, ranging from alumni eager to help with jobs, or being lucky enough to have an opportunity at the next level.

[Owen Schmitt @OwenSchmitt35]

If you are a young athlete that wants to continue his athletic career and play top tier football I urge you to watch this video. These facilities rival any D-1 program in the country. #playforglory #playwithgrit

"Someday, all this will be yours…"

A young man in Iowa heard that line for over a decade.

Came back to the farm when his dad had a health scare. At the time, it was just for short-term help. He’d already started a solid career in ag retail after trade school because the farm wasn’t big enough to support two generations. But when he came back, he realized expansion could happen and his passion was the family farm. So he agreed to stick around.

He worked his tail off. Took a job off the farm to make ends meet, married a local gal, built a life there. The farm grew. They dreamed of taking it over someday.

But, "someday" was always just over the horizon.

Every time they got close to talking about a real succession plan, his parents resisted.

The goalposts kept moving.

"If we get 80 more acres, then we’ll talk…"

"If you can find a place to rent nearby, then we’ll talk…"

"If you buy some land of your own, then we’ll talk…"

"If we have a couple good years in a row, then we'll talk..."

But the talk never happened.

Eventually, with two kids and 10 years gone, they gave the owner generation a clear, respectful proposal for the future. And were shot down. Fast.

So he made the hardest decision of his life... he left.

Took a DSM job in ag retail and moved his young family to Minnesota. His heart’s still back on the family farm, but he finally put his family’s future ahead of a fading promise.

Unfortunately, the relationship with his folks has soured.

He told me this story, and asked me to share it, so others might hear it.

For awareness, not to place blame.

If you’re the next gen, don’t ignore the warning signs.

If you’re the owner gen, don’t let pride or fear kill the legacy you worked to build.

Succession only happens if someone’s willing to lead. And leadership means putting things in writing. Before it’s too late.

🚨WILD: #Packers HC Matt LaFleur was PISSED OFF after the #Lions ran the same pick play that was called for offensive pass interference on Christian Watson.

RULE ONLY APPLIED FOR GREEN BAY AND NOT DETROIT…

PARENTS: If you are spending hundreds of dollars on equipment, thousands of dollars on lessons, and 10's of thousands of dollars on travel teams but are feeding your kid pop tarts for breakfast, your priorities are wrong.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

From 1992 until the foreseeable future, the Packers have transitioned from Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers and now to Jordan Love. They now have him for another five seasons.

The Packers are the NFL model for quarterback consistency: 32 years and counting.

[Ty Schmit @tyschmit]

Never a doubt. NOW WE GO.

[ESPN @espn]

Breaking: Jordan Love and the Packers have agreed to a 4-year, $220M contract, that makes him the highest paid QB in NFL history, sources tell @AdamSchefter.

He also gets a record $75M signing bonus plus $155M in new full guarantees.

[Kwik Trip @KwikTrip]

Timberwolves game 1 tomorrow is the biggest thing to happen in Minnesota since we put that new Kwik Trip up in Duluth

[Big Cat @BarstoolBigCat]

Some are saying the Badgers are back. What a shooting performance. Save some for tomorrow
