May never the two meet.

Is this due to lack of officials?

I don't know anything about Andover but West is always very good and has a lot of talent that will play on Saturdays.

Good on PJ. For many of us born after the Vietnam War, this was one of the most, if not the most, defining day of our lives. Yet, while I was keenly aware of such events as the Vietnam War, Pearl Harbor, and other era defining events, I find that younger generations are barely cognizant of...

Under what constitutional or legislative mandate does Congress get involved? This isn't an anti-trust issue.

It wasn't that long ago that the demand was for all artificial surfaces so that the players, and not the condition of the field, dictated the outcome. For the stadiums that do not have a giant rolling tray like Arizona, here was Houston's gimmick: Turf grown and maintained in smaller trays...

If you ever think folks around here need perspective and a reality check, head over to the bisonville forums. Those folks live in a whole other dimension.

And although they might be competitive and a curiosity (for a time), they bring few televisions to network deals.
