Football, horse racing, and bowling...

My three favorite sports... LOL.

Football first. I get to broadcast my first game at the Silver Bowl tomorrow, for the Mount Carmel Area/Montoursville game on T102radio.com. I can't wait. It's gonna be cold, but the place will be packed.

Horse racing... Atlantic City Race Course stays open, thank goodness. I didn't get to go this year, but they'll have six days of racing next year... with plans to upgrade the old facility, and maybe get some more racing dates.

Maryland passed their slots bill back on Election Day. Slots will most likely be coming to Laurel Park and Ocean Downs. If Ocean Downs get slots, I hope they improve the grandstand. Get real chairs, instead of folding chairs... and a real place for the camera operators to be stationed.

Bowling... if I sound tired on Monday, here's why... I'll be running one of my bowling tournaments on Sunday in Limerick. Over 170 bowlers are signed up, including yours truly. I may be in pain, considering it's been a while since I've bowled more than six games in a day.

Buckle up,

It's been a while...

It's been a while since I've posted. A lot has happened and a lot has been going on.

Yes, I voted. #63 at the Norwegian Township precinct in Mar Lin. I have the sticker to prove it. The results and who I voted for ended up about 50-50. I was semi-miffed as to why Senator Obama was declared the winner right after the polls on the west coast closed, but I guess the pundits know more than I do.

I've been getting up at 7AM ever since we changed the clocks back. I never did understand why we changed the clocks in the first place. I wouldn't mind an 8:30AM sunrise and 5:30PM sunset.

----

Business Alert: I found out where my massage therapist and good buddy Kelly Salen went... she opened her own salon and spa in Orwigsburg. You'll hear commercials for it next week.

----

I'll be at the Tri-Valley/Lourdes game on Friday night, doing play-by-play on T102. Saturday, I'll be at the rematch of Wilson/Bangor. They met three weeks ago, and the final was 50-40. I don't think the rain will allow that to happen again.

The 2009 desktop calendar are almost ready to be shipped to the printer. Keep listening for how to get yours.

Buckle Up,
