Even with running back Josh Jacobs making his presence known back on the football field, the Packers weren't able to tame the Lions yesterday in Detroit.

Democratic candidate for Governor David Crowley kicked off his Let's Get to Work Wisconsin tour in Green Bay over the weekend.
Crowley's first stop through a packed house at the Brown County Democratic Party headquarters.
Close to 100 people crowded in to hear from Crowley, along with speakers from the rest of the Democratic ticket, including Governor Tony Evers, incumbent candidate for Attorney General Josh Call and others.

Sot County Sheriff's deputies arrested a man last Saturday night for allegedly starting a fire in the woods near Devils Lake State Park.
Firefighters say they found a large fire spreading through the woods in an area inaccessible by traditional fire trucks.
The property is in the township of Sumter.
Fire crews from multiple agencies battled the blaze for more than an hour and a half with specialized ATVs and other equipment to bring it under control.
Authorities found and arrested the suspect shortly after arriving at the scene.
The motive behind the fire is still under investigation.
The Madison Common Council has voted to terminate interim independent police monitor Arameek Glass.
The move comes following weeks of controversy over her job performance outlined in an employment review from the city attorney's office.
That review states Glass had made no meaningful progress in searching for a permanent monitor after nearly 10 months with no approved job description, posting, or interviews.
It also cited a missed July 17 budget deadline, strained relationships with Madison police, and an open
an outside investigation into complaints about Glass' own conduct.
Wisconsin's measles outbreak has topped 300.
Health officials reported 43 new cases over the last 10 days, bringing the total to 310 cases.
Most cases are in southwestern Wisconsin, with Lafayette County reporting 103 confirmed or probable infections.
Northern Wisconsin has reported 34 confirmed cases across Chippewa and Marathon counties.
Health officials warn fewer reported cases do not necessarily mean the outbreak is slowing, and actual infections could be higher.
With the opening of the gun deer hunt less than a month away, 55 of Wisconsin's 72 counties now have chronic wasting disease, according to the DNR.
Wildlife officials say a three-year-old buck on a deer farm in Taylor County is among the most recent detections of the disease.
That farm will remain in quarantine while government veterinary staff work to identify and control the disease outbreak.
If you're a jerky lover in Wisconsin, you might want to check your pantry.
1,000 pounds of beef jerky is being recalled across Wisconsin and six other Midwest states.
The USDA says the products were produced without federal inspection.
Health officials warn that uninspected meat products can pose risks, including bacterial contamination and undisclosed allergens.
The recall affects three varieties of two-ounce sealed bags.
Imperial Fuego Beef Jerky, Imperial Original Beef Jerky, and Imperial Limone Beef Jerky.
If you have any of these products, health officials say you shouldn't eat it, but throw it away or return it to the place where you bought it.
A new $705 million casino is officially open in southern Wisconsin.
Ho-Chunk Gaming Beloit welcomed its first guests Friday.

Tribal leaders say the casino represents a major investment expected to support local employment and economic development.
