In this week's episode of OnMilwaukee's Postgame Tailgate, sports editor Jimmy Carlton and pop culture editor Matt Mueller discuss the Packers' win over the Buccaneers, Wisconsin's loss to Ohio State and the recently defensively competent Bucks.

Jimmy talks about the atmosphere in Green Bay, Matt wonders whether it's worth bringing back Aaron Rodgers and they evaluate the Packers' faint playoff chances. Then, they look back at the Badgers' Big Ten Championship game defeat and their surprisingly successful season. And later, they debate the rumors about the Bucks acquiring DeAndre Jordan and whether the team should make another big move or just chill for a bit.

Born in Milwaukee but a product of Shorewood High School (go ‘Hounds!) and Northwestern University (go ‘Cats!), Jimmy never knew the schoolboy bliss of cheering for a winning football, basketball or baseball team. So he ditched being a fan in order to cover sports professionally - occasionally objectively, always passionately. He's lived in Chicago, New York and Dallas, but now resides again in his beloved Brew City and is an ardent attacker of the notorious Milwaukee Inferiority Complex.

After interning at print publications like Birds and Blooms (official motto: "America's #1 backyard birding and gardening magazine!"), Sports Illustrated (unofficial motto: "Subscribe and save up to 90% off the cover price!") and The Dallas Morning News (a newspaper!), Jimmy worked for web outlets like CBSSports.com, where he was a Packers beat reporter, and FOX Sports Wisconsin, where he managed digital content. He's a proponent and frequent user of em dashes, parenthetical asides, descriptive appositives and, really, anything that makes his sentences longer and more needlessly complex.

Jimmy appreciates references to late '90s Brewers and Bucks players and is the curator of the unofficial John Jaha Hall of Fame. He also enjoys running, biking and soccer, but isn't too annoying about them. He writes about sports - both mainstream and unconventional - and non-sports, including history, music, food, art and even golf (just kidding!), and welcomes reader suggestions for off-the-beaten-path story ideas.
