Badgers lose to Michigan.
Hi, I'm Mike Clemens with sports.
The Badgers lost to Michigan last night 67 to 64 in the Cole Center.
Wisconsin now 8-1. Their first loss of the season, Greg Gard.
As I told the team, this is the lowest possession game we've had all year.
So when you get in these type of games, the ability to defend.
We didn't defend the paint well.
It's rebounding. We gave up too many offensive rebounds in the first half.
A lot of them were all long rebounds and wild possessions.
And then untimely turnovers.
The Badgers faced Marquette Saturday in Milwaukee.
Marquette on the road tonight against Iowa State.
The Bucks advance to the NBA Cup quarterfinals.
After a 127-107 win over the pistons in Detroit, Damien Lillard.
Coming into this game, they know it was a big game for them.
But it was a big game for us too.
Closer tours, you know, getting to Vegas.
Also closer tours becoming the team that we want to continue to become.
NFL, the 9-3 Packers, head to Detroit to face the 11-1 Lions tomorrow night.
On Thursday night football, Josh Jacobs says it'll be a showdown.
Obviously, you know, they've been rolling.
They've been playing really good ball.
So we feel like we've been playing good ball too.
You know, they top of the division and that's we hunt.
It's going to be fun.
That's Packers running back, Josh Jacobs.
With sports, I'm Mike Clemens.
On your entertainment beat, I'm Pete Schwabba.
Sharon Stone has accused director Sam Raimi of having no loyalty.
That's according to Deadline.
The two work together on Raimi's fantastic film, The Quick and the Dead,
on which Stone was a producer.
She says after that film, Raimi went on to direct big films and totally forgot about her.
Stone credits herself for bringing Raimi from B-movies to A-list movies.
That might be true, but she also took credit for Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio's stardom.
Great actress, but who knew she was a kingmaker.
If you're one of those people who still watches Saturday Night Live, good for you.
There are still some good laughs here and there.
Also, you can look forward to former cast regulars Chris Rock and Martin Short hosting before Christmas.
Rock will host December 14th and Martin Short will host December 21st.
This coming Saturday, Paul Muskel hosts with Shibuzi as the musical guest.
Enjoy.
When I saw Wicked last weekend at my local theater, I was surprised the crowd wasn't more into it.
On the other hand, some theaters are taking issue with moviegoers singing along.
Stars Cynthia Arrivo and Ariana Grande wait in, saying audiences should do whatever they feel.
Moana's two Dwayne the Rock Johnson also says it's okay to sing along.
So to those who heckled me last weekend in the middle of my performance during the film,
I say take that and seriously clapping is good, but let's leave the singing to the professionals.
If you're a fan of Yellowstone, there's a pretty good bet.
One of your favorite characters has been killed off in recent episodes.
I will hold off on the most recent killings for spoiler purposes,
but the killing spree started with Kevin Costner's character, John Dutton,
who was found dead in the first episode of the second half of season five.
If you're a fan of the show, you better start watching while there's still a cast.
If you're in the Milwaukee area and looking for live holiday entertainment,
run, don't walk to see a Christmas Carol at the Paps Theater.
The Dickens Classic is one of the most well-known Christmas stories ever,
and as usual, is put on by the Milwaukee rep.
Because of a few harrowing moments, recommended ages are six and above,
but word on the street is they aren't checking IDs.
Ticket start is low as $15, and at those prices, you can't afford not to check it out.
You might think being nominated for an Academy Award is a big deal.
For most people, it would be, but not Samuel Jackson.
Jackson was nominated in the best supporting actor category for his role as Jules.
In Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, Jackson told the AP that people barely remember
who won, much less, who didn't, when it comes to nominations.
Jackson did, however, say it would be an honor to win, even though he hasn't had the pleasure yet.
For more showbiz fun, tune in tonight, light with me, Pee Schwabba.
Weeknights from 6 to 8 p.m. on the Civic Media Radio Network.
It is going to be cloudy and very windy with off and on light snow today
and falling temperatures this afternoon.
We're going to drop into the low-to-mid teens by later today
with a windshield below zero by late this afternoon.
Tonight, cold, windy, eight above tomorrow, partly cloudy.
High of 22, I'm meteorologist Sean Cable.
Currently, it's 28.
