It is great to see basketball back at Memorial Park. Tip of my Webb Weekly cap to Mayor Gabriel Campana and his efforts on getting this done. When the basketball hoops were taken down a few years back, I was not a fan of the decision. I reached out to Mayor Campana and let my
Father Manno is one of my favorite people in our neighborhood of the West Branch Valley. When we get together, we can talk all day, about everything from the Catholic Church to Ebbets Field and when his dad played for the Boston Braves. Before I get to our discussion about Lent and Easter, just let
Hippity hop, y’all. It appears the Easter Bunny is on the way. I am trading in hot sauce for sweets this week. I’ll most likely have a new video up as this issue hits mailboxes, but in the meantime, let’s talk bunny! I’ve said before, I don’t really have a huge sweet tooth. One bite
Several years back, I was helping coach a very talented Loyalsock 8th grade basketball team. Datres, Little, Sosa, Baggett, Pastore and my son Jimmy were the mainstays on the roster. I had the pleasure of working with these boys since the time they were in third grade, and they looked forward to playing the best
It’s time for another round of ‘things to do.’ As of this writing, it’s currently somehow sleeting and snowing at the same time, but I swear spring has to be on the horizon. Hopefully, by the time you are reading this, we have hit some nicer weather. There is a lot happening in the area
I’m not going to waste my words on the Mueller Report and Russia. It needs to be put in the rearview mirror. Nor on the despicable Jussie Smollett and the Cooke County DA’s Office. That has the fingerprints of former President Barack Obama all over it. I want to try to stay positive and approach
Spring has officially arrived and with it, a new season of Major League Baseball. I caught the Braves opener (yesterday, as of this writing), and while the Phils got the better of them, I still have high hopes for another winning season. Ender Inciarte, Freddie Freeman and Ozzie Albies are all poised to put up
I walked in the office a few weeks back, and standing at the counter was a very special person in my life. It’s hard to even fathom that it’s been over four decades since we first met. He exemplifies the importance of having a great person as a coach when you first begin playing sports.
If you’ve been anywhere near YouTube in the last year or so, at some point, you’ve probably stumbled across a “World’s Hottest ________ Challenge” of one sort or another. My boyfriend loves these things, and I don’t mean watching the videos, but actually doing them. Wings, chips, chocolate…you name it, and he’s probably done it.
I have never been a fan of zombies. I remember in the late 70s when “Dawn of the Dead” was the big movie. I had no interest in seeing it. When I go to the movies, I want to laugh and be entertained. I have never been into the blood, gore, and things that go
Spring is trying to spring. Though I don’t know that we’ve quite hit that ‘out like a lamb’ portion of the month yet. With April Showers being right around the corner, it seems like a good time to take advantage of the last of the ‘inside days.’ By now Spring Fever is hitting the kids
What a great time to get out and about and enjoy all the happenings early Spring has to offer. There is definitely something for everyone that calls the West Branch Valley home. It is so nice to hear the singing of the robins in the morning and enjoy the sunshine upon returning home in the
