- If you're the dad of a PeeWee girls hockey player and you find it necessary to drop an F*Bomb on a high school kid reffing the game and then make a huge scene after you get kicked out of the rink...you're a big reason why there is a shortage of officials these days....
- You're a sophomore on St Mary's Springs...you catch a 49 yard TD pass..return a kickoff 86 yards for a score and run 33 yards for a TD in a 41-0 win. How does Coach Bob Hyland keep you humble?....Exit Stage Right.... #wisfb
00:00 - The #NCAA has a transcending opportunity to grow the game of women's basketball on the biggest stage ever for the sport and they are letting the officials ruin it. #NCAAChampionship
- Maty Wilke may have been the the most complete girls high school basketball player I've seen in my nearly 30 years covering the sport! She could do it all on both ends of the floor. AND she has been a great role model to my three daughters and the youth of our community....1/2
- It was an honor to have legendary Fond du Lac baseball coach Marty Paulsen present me with the Wisconsin Baseball Coaches Association Media Member of the Year Award today. Appreciate being able to cover local high school baseball and broadcast @Marian_Baseball in Wisconsin.
- At a 4th grade girls basketball tournament...team were playing had 8 kids....coach only playing six..2 on bench the whole game cause having other two on floor "hurts our chances to win"....I'm sick to my stomach....
- Not a fan of the "Great season, we'll get them next year" response by fans after the team you follow loses deep in playoffs. You don't know if that chance will ever come again. Be mad that a golden opportunity was lost. Heard it at Miller Park last fall and reading it tonight.
- I appreciate the honor by the the Wisconsin Baseball Coaches Association.
- Today wrapped up my 3rd year of broadcasting @MUSabres athletics on the Marian Sports Network! Thanks to Athletic Director Jason Bartelt, SID Brandon Bodart, the coaches, players, parents, fans & trainers for allowing me to be a part of of the Sabre family! #FightBlueFight
