March 19, 2022 https://youtu.be/Yewe2nP-Sdc Town mottos. Webster is of course, "Where Life is Worth Living." Penfield is the less inspiring "Town of Planned Progress." "Discover the Promise" of Greece. Irondequoit is the "Town for a Lifetime." East Rochester is the "Home of Champions." Now there's a tough title to live up to. It was a ...
The Long Road to Legitimacy
It wasn't always like this. In the early days the then Boston Patriots were the sorriest franchise in the NFL. The last of the eight original American Football teams to join, they were homeless, playing alternately at Harvard, Boston College, Boston University and Fenway Park. There was talk of moving the team to Tampa... ironically... ...
The Big Drum and other things…
Honestly now. Before this week, did you know that Purdue claimed the world's biggest bass drum? Marching bands were and are still are a big deal in the Midwest. So, the drum became Purdue's thing.

In the Beginning…
May 29, 2021 Until last week I didn't know who Joe Valerio was. He was like a lot of people who work behind the scenes to produce television programs. Invisible. His calling card was ESPN's The Sports Reporters. A panel discussion show on ESPN. A ground breaking production that brought serious discussion to real sports ...
Remembering Matt Trabs…
Matt Trabold died a young man last week. I first came to know Matt when he was a guest on John DiTullio's radio show. A true savant when the subject was basketball.

This Needs to Work
July 18, 2020 We are used to the playbook of sports in 2020. Empty arenas. Shortened seasons. Duct taped playoff systems. Bubbles. Hub locations. Crown a champion however you can.
