If nothing else, 2018 demonstrated the yin and yang of sports in Wisconsin.

The Green Bay Packers and the University of Wisconsin football and men's basketball teams were down, the Milwaukee Brewers and Milwaukee Bucks were up, making it seem like we're only allowed so much athletic success in Wisconsin at any given time.

Finally ‘living out our dream’ together, Za’Darius and Preston Smith eager to ‘make some things happen’ for Packers defense

With the team having cut ties with Nick Perry, and Clay Matthews expected to depart in unrestricted free agency, the Packers are counting on the Smiths to create pressure on opposing quarterbacks and deliver more sacks than their two former first-round picks managed together last year.
