    Someday0

    Over the many years traveling up and down Route 15, it would be impossible for me to count the countless times I have driven past Clyde Peeling’s Reptiland. Most times I drive by, I’ve noticed numerous cars in the parking lot and say to myself, ‘someday I’ve got to stop in., but I never have.

Talented people are gathering at ‘ESPNville’, preparing to tell the world what is happening at the Little League World Series. TV and the World Series predate ESPN’s arrival. In 1963-64,

  • Do-Over0

    Sometimes in child’s play, or a hacker’s round of golf, a ‘do-over’ is called. It is just what the phrase implies, a second chance to handle a situation differently. It’s not about pretending a first attempt never happened, but rather an opportunity to improve an action the second time around. For Williamsport Crosscutters manager Kenny

    I have seen many baseball venues — larger-than-life professional ball fields to stunning Little League complexes. I once waved a Homer Hankie in the Metrodome. A left-handed friend of ours pitched at Memorial. I almost caught a fly ball at Dodgers Stadium. I used to hang out on the bank to catch the games at
