UW-Green Bay student Tyler Brinkman of Sturgeon Bay got a big write-up in his hometown paper, the Door County Advocate, with a story sharing his impressions as a Phoenix cheerleader who, along with his teammates, also got to double as a Packers cheerleader. “Getting to go to the Packers (home) games, you can’t beat that,” said the 6-foot-4, 225-pound former high school football player.

Perceiving an insult had been added to his injury, Marshall briefly gave Brinkman a boxer’s menacing staredown. To read the story.
