OK, time to put pen to paper on the Turkey Day happenings here … I’ll start with Billerica, which feels the wrath of the miaa and has to travel to Reading for a Rockets home game. Now, I’m sure that I’ll hear that this is sheer coincidence, that Reading was a site and this is [...]

There is no other place to start than Beaudry Field where Methuen and Dracut collide. Honestly, I’m bipolar on this one. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to cover this game, I’ve been fired up about it since Central-Billerica. On the other hand, it’s going to be a madhouse, I’m probably going to have to [...]

North, which proved a formidable runner-up, was beaten by Salem on the fast turf at Stellos and the mud at Salem. There is [...]

OK, I’m going to harken back to my younger, fresher days at The Eagle-Tribune, back in the mid-1990s, when local cable TV was big, and I was willing to open my mouth for anyone who cared to listen. Not much has changed with that, other than the fact that I don’t do any local cable [...]
Central-Billerica at Veterans Memorial Stadium Friday night. First off, I say, if you’re at the game, take a minute to look at the memorials in the stadium courtyard. Wednesday was Veterans Day, of course. if you know me, you understand I’m a bit of a history buff. I simply think about all the sacrifices the [...]

All of you Whittier Tech bashers had better back off. Look, I grilled Kevin a bit on his very iffy (at-best) non-league schedule. After that, step off. Whittier’s gritty win over Manchester was a pretty solid testament to the quality of this football team. A lot of people want to cheapshot the CAC. They’ve done [...]
