More "I hate Brett Favre" ranting

I probably should see somebody about this, but I can't stop dumping on Brett Favre. Well, this seems to be normal for most Packers' fans these days.

I caught a blog by Green Bay Press-Gazette assistant online editor Jeff Ash that I found amusing.

I kind of fell off my ESPN and NFL Network boycott last night and this morning. I admit, I did check out both networks. Well, at least until the latest Favre love-fest. Of course, it was just a warm-up for tonight's Vikings-Chiefs preseason game. More loving to come.

Thanks for the memories

As I put my watch up to my ear, I expect to hear click, click, click, as each second moves forward. Kind of like my current days as a sportswriter ... click, click, click. For some reason, though, the watch is silent as it continues time. Again, kind of like my current days of operating Wyoming Sports.org. Yikes, cliche' overload here. The simple fact is my sports website is probably on its last leg. I say probably because in two weeks I will begin a new job as news copy editor/designer for the Wyoming Tribune Eagle in Cheyenne. Not only will I not have the time to cover local sporting events in Laramie, I can see my new employers likely not wanting me to compete against the WTE's fine sports staff. It makes perfect sense and I totally understand. When the position opened a while back, with my wife's blessing and encouragement, I decided to apply for the job. Friday night I was offered the position and I accepted. I do admit it will be a little strange not being a sportswr

Chargers sign Vinnedge, Betschart

No Wyoming football players were drafted over the weekend in the NFL Draft, but a pair of former Cowboys will try to stick with the San Diego Chargers. Punter Billy Vinnedge and tight end/H-back Wade Betschart both signed free agent contracts Sunday with the Chargers. As of Sunday night, they were the lone former Cowboys to sign with a NFL team. Cornerbacks Michael Medina and Julius Stinson are waiting for that opportunity. Vinnedge and Betschart join former Cowboys, wide receiver Malcom Floyd and quarterback Casey Bramlet, on the San Diego roster. Bramlet was picked up last week, likely as a "camp arm." Other former Cowboys currently on NFL rosters include kicker Aaron Elling (Cincinnati), cornerback Derrick Martin (Baltimore), offensive lineman Adam Goldberg (St. Louis), linebacker Patrick Chukwurah (Tampa Bay) and safety John Wendling and defensive lineman Corey Mace (both of Buffalo).

Winter sports at LHS under way

There seems to be a little irony in the air. Just as the winter sports seasons begin for Laramie High School, it's gorgeous outside. I'd be willing to bet that some of the fall sports teams, such as football, cross country and even golf, would like to have been practicing in days such as Monday and today. It's been a good month since the state golf tournament. Nevertheless, the basketball has been bouncing at will in Plainsman Gym as Jason Mountain gets his boys' team ready and Rod T yson begins his first season as Lady Plainsmen head coach. After all, it is basketball season. It just doesn't feel like it -- yet. In a couple of days, though, we'll be glad that the winter sports (minus Nordic and alpine skiing) are inside. Also hard at work now is Brad Edmunds and his wrestling crew, with Tom Hudson still on a little fiesta (for Hudson) before he begins his boys' swim practices. And yes, pray for snow for the LHS ski teams. Of all of the sports that do
