<p dir="ltr">In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, veteran sports writer Bill Brophy returns to reminisce about the old days.&nbsp;</p>

<p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The Big 10 held their media days in Chicago, and while it looks a lot different than it used to it still gives a lot of insight into the season ahead. Brophy and Lucas remember the days when coaches would sit down at tables with people, but those days are long gone. Not that it&rsquo;s not a great event now, it&rsquo;s just a bit more choreographed than it once was.&nbsp;</p>

<p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Speaking of college football, the Badgers are rumored to have a roster worth over $25 million this year. In this modern environment, hopefully they can at least stay competitive with a few of the other big name teams. If not, I guess they&rsquo;re going to have to find some more patches for their jersey&hellip;&nbsp;</p>

<p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The MLB trade deadline is just a few days away now, and the question Brewers fans are asking is: will they make the big move for Tarik Skubal? He&rsquo;d make a great addition to the roster, but rumor has it the Dodgers are also interested. By next week we should know the full picture, maybe we can settle with Freddy Peralta at least (so long as he&rsquo;s back to being Milwaukee Freddy).</p>
