THE BIG 920 UNVEILS “GREEN & GOLD WEDNESDAY” FEATURING GILBERT BROWN
MILWAUKEE –With a full slate of practice and press conferences, Wednesday is traditionally a big news day for the Green Bay Packers and their passionate fans.
It’s about to get even bigger.
The Big 920, Milwaukee’s sports station, is proud to announce that Packers Legend defensive lineman Green Bay legend Gilbert “The Gravedigger” Brown will join the broadcast lineup on “Green & Gold Wednesday” during the football season.
Brown, a fan favorite during two stints Green Bay (1993-’99; 2001-’03), will host “GRAVEDIGGER RADIO” on Wednesday and will make monthly appearances during a live broadcast on Wednesday nights at The Crest, 257 W. Broadway in historic downtown Waukesha.
“Our weekly ‘Wednesday Night Live’ show at The Crest in downtown Waukesha is quickly becoming a tradition for all football fans in the area,” Nelles said. “And with Gilbert joining the show – on location – once per month, it’s a must-listen and must-visit event!”
A member of the Packers’ Super Bowl XXXI championship team that will mark its 20th anniversary next year, Brown was known for gobbling opposing ballcarriers and burgers during his time in Green Bay.
Brown played in 125 games with the Packers and was credited with 292 tackles and seven sacks. He played in 15 playoff games, which ranks second behind Hall of Famer Brett Favre (22) on the storied franchise’s all-time list. Since retiring after the 2003 season, Brown has remained active in Wisconsin in a variety of business and charitable endeavors, including youth football camps and The Gilbert Brown Foundation.
“Gilbert is as well-known and as active in the Milwaukee community as any member of the Packers’ Super Bowl XXXVI team,” Nelles said. “And I can’t wait for him to share his unfiltered – and often hilarious – opinions on the current Packers with me every Wednesday.”

Mayfield Sports Marketing Welcomes Packers TE Jared Cook Aboard!
Mayfield Sports Marketing is happy to announce we are now accepting inquiries, appearance information, booking requests and autograph session rates for Packers Tight End Jared Cook.
At 6’5’ and 254 lbs., Jared is an extremely talented and versatile player while many view him as a reliable pass-catching threat since entering the NFL in 2009- as a third round draft pick by the Tennessee Titans of South Carolina University.
Cook comes to Green Bay after four seasons with Tennessee and three with St. Louis playing in 107/112 games on teams that failed to reach the playoffs in each of his first 7 seasons.
It has been widely noted that Cook wound up in Green Bay in large part because Cook prioritized playing for team that has a number of veteran play makers, and playing with (arguably) the league’s best Quarterback is surely a welcome change of scenery.
Cook’s receiving ability should give Packers’ fans plenty to cheer about this year, and will allow Aaron manipulate the in game matchups more than in recent seasons. Cook will pair nicely with fellow TE Richard Rodgers who is more of a balanced Tight End that thrives in the running game and play action situations while Cook generally plays to his strengths as a receiving threat.
Upon signing with the Packers in late March, Cook said of Rodgers:
““I think I was more excited than he was”
