Analysts like to say that the NFL is a “quarterback driven league”–meaning that offenses are geared so heavily toward the passing game nowadays that not having a QB who can fling it all around the yard handicaps your chances of winning. One need look no further than the stadium north of here to see what…… READ MORE

Turning Pot Against Itself
I’m hoping the Oshkosh Common Council keeps its marijuana possession fine debate going for another two months–as the people who come before them in support of the drug are far more entertaining than those that come to complain about special assessments on their property. Last night, Mayor Steve Cummings warned those signed up to speak…… READ MORE
CRASH VICTIM CAUSE
AUTOPSY RESULTS SHOW A CAMPBELLSPORT WOMAN KILLED IN A TRAFFIC CRASH DIED FROM A MEDICAL CONDITION. DIANNE MAJERUS RAN OFF COUNYT HIGHWAY “K” IN THE TOWN OF EMPIRE LAST THURSDAY. SHE WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD AT THE SCENE. THE FOND DU LAC COUNTY CORONER SAYS THE INJURIES SHE SUFFERED WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN FATAL.… READ MORE
Enough With “The Process”
I know its early in the year, but I’d like Lake State University to already select its word to be banished from the English language for 2018. My nomination is “the process”. If you listened to all of the news conference announcing Brian Gutekunst as the new General Manager of the Green Bay Packers…… READ MORE
Oprah Ain’t Running
Based on my social media feeds this morning, the field of Democratic candidates for President has been cleared–Oprah Winfrey is clearly the people’s choice for 2020. I have to admit, I have not seen Oprah’s “stirring” speech at the Golden Globes last night. One of the issues with coming to work at 3:00 am every…… READ MORE
The Self-Identification Champions
Let’s take a minute this morning to congratulate the University of Central Florida Golden Knights on their National Championship in College Football. Now, if you are thinking “Aren’t Georgia and Alabama playing in the ‘College Football Playoff Championship Game’ on Monday night?” don’t worry–you aren’t losing your mind. UCF is actually becoming…… READ MORE
When Godwin’s Law Actually Applies
I don’t usually engage in comparing modern politics to those of Nazi Germany. There is a principal called “Godwin’s Law” that hold that any on-line discussion about politics–if allowed to go on long enough–will lead to a reference or comparison to Naziism. One need only refer to the comment section below any article about the…… READ MORE
So Where is All of the Outrage Today?
I think I’m going to start referring to January 3rd as “Disappointment Day”. Here in Wisconsin, January 2nd–unless it falls upon a weekend day–is the date by which candidates in the non-partisan spring elections must file their nomination petitions to get on the ballot. And barring a few instances in the 17-years that I’ve been…… READ MORE
Predictions….Sure to Go Wrong
Last week I told you I would look into the crystal ball to form some predictions for 2018. Instead, I spent most of the weekend sick and having to run back and forth from home to the Radio Ranch to let people into the building because the locks on the main door have frozen and…… READ MORE
Who Could Have Predicted?
I was all set to review my predictions for 2017 that I would have sworn I had made at the start of the year–but darned if I didn’t actually make any. I went through the My Two Cents archives all the way back to late December of 2016 and found no bold pronouncements on the…… READ MORE
