38-17 the score of the Badger's opening season game for 2008 at Camp Randall Stadium. They beat the Akron Zips on a very sunny and hot day. Since Ethan is working nights I took my Dad to the game. It is becoming a tradition that my Dad attends a game with me each season because there is always at least one game Ethan cannot attend. Unfortunately, the way his work schedule is there are many more he cannot attend this season.
It was a good day. Luckily for us the old man behind us was a bit quieter than usual. He can never say anything good even when they do something well and always has something to say about at least one player - last season it was "put Bernstein in". The year before he was constantly yelling about Stocco. We will have to wait and see who it will be this year.
I like Allan Everidge. He seems to be a smart quarterback. Let's hope he and the rest of the Badger team can take us to a good Bowl game. Next week is Marshall and this time all 3 of us will attend. We have great people next to us and in front of us. We have gotten to know each other over the last 3 seasons so now we can contact each other for extra tickets if needed.
Go Badgers! On Wisconsin!

Everidge shows some promise, but if he throws that dumb interception near the endzone against Ohio State it's going to be a little hard to take. (Or Hill fumbling in the endzone for that matter.)
Don't worry, I'm sure that old guy will find something to yell about soon enough. Old, grumpy sports fans always do. i remember quite a bit of "bench Favre" in the late '90's.
You know, between this post and your Miller Park trip you're making me homesick. I guess I'll have to go hiking tomorrow to remember why I live here.
The Badgers take on California!! Andrew and I went to the game last weekend at Fresno State and wore our Badger gear with Pride! Glad we got to get a game in this year. You know, they're playing my alma mater this year...might have to switch from red to green on Nov 22!!! Go Mustangs! (like they stand a chance agains Wisconsin!). Glad to hear you're doing well!
