If This Is Not A Place. . .
If this is not a place where tears are understood, Then where shall I go to cry? And if this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, Then where shall I go to fly? I don't need another place for trying to impress you With just how good and virtuous I am. I don't need another place for always being on top of things; Everybody knows that it's a sham. I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, Even when it's not the way I feel. I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes; Everybody knows that it's not real. So if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, Then where shall I go to seek? And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, Where, tell me where, shall I go to speak? So if this is not a place where tears are understood, Where shall I go, where shall I go to fly? -- Ken Medema

Cute post.
ReplyDeleteHey - - - did I hear that your Packers play the Vike's tomorrow!? Hope you rub their noses in the DIRT!!!
The Badgers had a GREAT football day today - - - beating the Wolverines, 37 - 21!!!
The only reason Wisconson won is becaue Henne and Hart did not play so the can be healthy enough to beat Ohio State.
ReplyDeleteWell I guess we have a rival on our hands in this here blog Mark, I hope you don't mind I really kinda enjoy it!
As for signs I like the one you posted!
Tim
Nice excuse but it won't "cut" it with me. We also had several of our key players out with injuries - - - PJ Hill (ONLY our running back)and Luke Swan (ONLY our best receiver.) So - - - MI fans, just buck up and take a loss like the rest of us have to!!!!! (Same thing for the Buckeyes. Good for IL for pulling out that win!!! - Speaking of IL, they will be beating many more good teams in the future, hide and watch!!)
ReplyDeleteNo sympathy from me. We Badgers have been itching to beat our fellow muscadines for a long time!!!!!
;-)
Also Mr. Wolverine, had your boys not tried to go for it on fourth down from their OWN 1 yard line with about 8 minutes left to play and only behind by 2 points, I think you very well may have beaten us.
ReplyDeleteHowever - - - when you lined up to "go for it" on the one yard line at your own end of the field, it just made the Badgers act like Badgers, dig in, and let you know you CAN'T DO THAT IN OUR BACK YARD!!!!
So - - - you can thank yourselves for giving the momentum BACK to WI at that point. Enough momentum to score two more TDs and let you know your total lack of respect for our defense did NOT go unnoticed.
Again, :-)
Besides - - - Mark LIVES in WI - - - he'd better at LEAST be kind to the Badgers.
ReplyDeleteI wonder just how I feel about all of this - - - -
Oh yah - - - Henne DID play for several possessions. He wasn't keeping WI from scoring either, nor was he helping MI to score.
ReplyDeleteMr. Tim, did you even WATCH the game? Or were you and I seeing TWO different things?!?
:-)
#1 -- I was saddened by the Buckeye demise
ReplyDelete#2 -- I am always thrilled when anybody beats Michigan
#3 -- I cheer for Wisconsin always -- except when the play the Buckeyes
Good for you, Mark!!!
ReplyDeleteHey - - - WHAT ABOUT YOUR PACKERS TODAY!!!
I don't EVER remember dispatching with the Vikings in such STYLE even way back in the glory days of VL and BS!!!!!!!
Way to go!!!
i GUESS WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT WEEK BETWEEN oHIO sTATE AND mICHIGAN, AS FOR YOU KEETHA I APPRECIATRE YOUR VIEWPOINT ON THE MICHIGAN GAME BUT I DO NOT BACK DOWN TO IF HENNE AND HART WERE PLAYING MICHIGAN NO DOUBT WOULD HAVE WON!!!!!
ReplyDeleteFURTHERMORE I WILL GLADLY TAKE THE LIONS OVER GREENBAY ON THANKSGIVING DAY.
YOU CAN KICK ME OFF OF YOUR BLOG IF YOU WANT, I WOULD UNDERSTAND.
TIM
Jesus loves Lions fans too
ReplyDeleteNo need to kick you off - - - - you are entitled to your opinion, though the Badgers DID win this time, and nothing will change that moment in history now. (Listen to me - - - it isn't my blog, but knowing Mark I'm certain he won't kick you off)
ReplyDeleteAlso - - - after watching the Pack several times this season, I think you'll have another disappointment on Thanksgiving day.
Time will tell - - - -
