The Badgers B-Ball team is at it's highest ranking, well, ever. The latest polls have them at #2 in the AP and #3 in the coaches poll. Either way, it's a view Bucky rarely looks from.Tonight, the Badgers get a home win... err game against the Purdue Boilermakers. The Badgers are 40-2 in Big Ten regular season play at home. Somehow I think that Purdue is not going to be the team to add that 3rd loss.
Can't Purdue update their name? I mean it's so 19th century and they need to get with the times. I've got a great one for them. The Purdue Opossums. They share all the same qualities: roll over and play dead when danger comes, they stink and generally get run over a lot. See, it's perfect.

You need to get out into the outdoors more, man. No one calls them "oppossums". They're just 'possums'.
And not only do they stink, but they're usually covered with insects, lice. They're truly disgusting animals, probably a great fit for Purdue. :)
Hey Jon,
Normally that is how I spell it, but figured most would object.
Good luck next season with those Huskers, I like Callahan and what he's done there. He'll get you guys back in the top 10.
"Possums" are what hillbillies go hunting for in the Ozarks.
I have relatives from there. Don't argue with me. One visit, we stopped at a roadside store, and this one fellah came walking in in full hillbilly garb - overalls, straw hat, squirrel rifle, no shoes. From right out of the woods.
I don't remember, but he might have been carring a "possum."
