Cleveland Browns rookie minicamp began Friday, giving the team's rookies and potential undrafted free agent signings the opportunity to train with each other and Browns coaches for the first time.

Michigan defensive lineman Mason Graham was the Browns' first selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, but it's fifth-round quarterback Shedeur Sanders that has garnered most of the attention from media and fans. Graham told members of the media Friday that he had the chance to meet Sanders a few days ago.

"He seems like a good dude and [the conversation] was all about ball," Graham said. "I want to play with guys that are like-minded."

Graham, the No. 5 overall pick, also added that it doesn't matter to him that Sanders is receiving most of the media attention.

"I come and play football," Graham said. "If the media's on me, then they're on me. If the media's not, then [they're] not. I'm just going to do my job at the end of the day."

Graham was a dominant force on the University of Michigan defensive line. In three years with the Wolverines, the 6-foot-3, 320-pounder combined to log 108 tackles, 18 tackles for loss and nine sacks. He was also a big contributor on Michigan's National Championship-winning team in 2023.

Paired alongside Myles Garrett, Graham will have the opportunity to make an immediate impact as a rookie. The Browns could have one of the most fearsome defensive lines in the league, but they'll need the team's offense, with Sanders potentially at the helm, to step up in order to get some wins.

Over a dozen nurses at the same maternity center in Wisconsin are getting ready to welcome their own little bundles of joy!

In a recent press release, HSHS St. Vincent Hospital’s Women and Infants Center in Green Bay announced that 14 nurses on their team are currently expecting.

The medical center shared the news just ahead of Mother’s Day and during National Nurses Week, which runs from May 6 to May 12.

"This is an incredible full-circle moment for many of our nurses, some of which are about to become first-time moms themselves,” said Amy Bardon, director of the center, in the release.

“Each of these women were already baby experts in their own rights,” she continued, adding that for some, their knowledge is “about to further deepen.”

“I am so excited for each of our nurses and the journey they are embarking on, and I hope they have a special Nurses Week and Mother’s Day,” she said.

Bardon also noted that the moms-to-be — who are all registered nurses, as well as health “educators” and “advocates” — have been receiving their prenatal care and checkups from friends and colleagues right there at St. Vincent.

“When our expecting nurses are ready to welcome their little ones into the world, they’ll be cared for by their friends and colleagues here at HSHS St. Vincent Hospital, and they find comfort in that,” she said.

“But even before labor, these women have already built some really unique bonds with their colleagues, and I love that each of them has the chance to go through this special moment with each other.”

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — Students at UW-Green Bay are speaking out about what they say are hefty online course fees.

They’re frustrated that it costs more to take an online class versus an in-person class, especially if the class is only offered online.

“It definitely adds up and took a big chunk of change out of my wallet,” UWGB junior John Reinke said.

Reinke said he’s paid an extra $300 in fees for online courses. At UWGB, it costs $348 per credit, plus $25 extra per credit for an online class.

This frustrated Reinke and prompted him to start a petition calling for the elimination of online course fees.

“We’re already paying for the tuition itself, and a lot of the same programs that they’re using are the same ones that in-person students use already. It just doesn’t make sense to me,” Reinke said.

So far, Reinke’s Change.org petition has garnered 664 signatures, with a goal of 750. He plans to continue building the petition over the summer and eventually forward it to UWGB staff.

As a psychology student, Reinke said some of his required classes are offered exclusively online, leaving him with no choice but to take on the more expensive, digital learning format.

“The technology we need to be able to offer the online class — there is an expense to that, for sure. It’s different to teach an online class, and we want to make sure the online classes we’re teaching are as excellent as the classes that we teach here in person,” UWGB Chancellor Mike Alexander said.

The fee — called a “legacy fee” — was put in place in the 1990s when online classes were a new concept. Alexander admits legacy fees are an outdated concept and said UWGB is working with the Universities of Wisconsin to either end the fee or offer alternative in-person options.

“I think, though, our students have been right to call out the issue,” Alexander said. “Yes, of course we’d like to offer them all both in-person and online. We just don’t have the resources to do that.”

Alexander wants to remind students that UWGB is the second most affordable in the UW system. Students don’t expect online fees to go away altogether, but hope to at least see more in-person choices.

“Talking just to my roommates this morning, we’re all living on campus, but over the past year and a half, my specific one roommate has had to take all online classes. Like, there’s been none available for in-person,” UWGB junior Jasmine Puls said.

Alexander said many other UW universities also charge extra for online courses.

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — Deacon Nicholas Stellpflug from Combined Locks was in the piazza Thursday as white smoke rose above St. Peter’s Square, indicating a new pope had been elected.

The introduction of Pope Leo XIV came as Stellpflug prepares to return to Wisconsin for his own ordination mass in June, following four years of studying in Rome.

“Really, the moment that was so special is when the curtains opened for the first time, and hearing this announcement with great joy to us. ‘Habemus Papam’ — we have a Pope — that’s when the crowd erupts,” Stellpflug said. “It’s also a little bit hard to hear the name too, and a couple of us that heard it was Cardinal Prevost, which was also special for us because he celebrated our Thanksgiving mass this past year.”

Pope Leo’s Midwest ties, according to Stellpflug, are witness to how God works.

“Seeing him as a guy who grew up in the Midwest, born on the south side of Chicago, and now is the Holy Father. You see the story that God weaves in his life, through all these years, that’s led him to this place — and none of those moments are insignificant. Just in the same way for each of us, whatever God is going to call us to do with our life, there’s nothing that’s insignificant in that story,” added Stellpflug.

Right now, the Green Bay Catholic Diocese has two dozen men in various stages of vocation to the priesthood. That number is nearly double what it was just seven years ago.

While Catholics believe men are called to serve, having a Holy Father from the United States with Midwest ties could be a sign to some to answer their own call.

According to Fr. Mark Mleziva, vocation director for the Green Bay Catholic Diocese, “If the Lord can call a pope from the Midwest, perhaps he might call someone from here to hear the call to the priesthood and say yes to it. So, that’s maybe the biggest sense of joy to come from, ‘Okay why not me?’ because the Lord is the one who makes the call.”

Less than 48 hours since Pope Leo XIV was elected, it’s too early to tell how his papacy will impact the recruitment of priests. But it will surely be interesting to keep an eye on.
