Impeccable Timing: High School Hoops  Playoffs, NASCAR Season On The Horizon
Impeccable Timing: High School Hoops Playoffs, NASCAR Season On The Horizon
This is one of my favorite times of the year. High School basketball playoffs begin next week, Saturday February 20th. This week, conference tourneys are in play.

We could possibly see a third East Rutherford/Freedom boys match up this Friday night, while R-S Central (21-1) is likely favored in the girls title game.

Last year, we all know that East Rutherford’s boys brought home the 2A state title last year. While they are not as deep this year compared to a year ago, they only have three losses this season and many think that they won’t be an easy out this year either.

Opinion

Listen To Life
Do you act on your dream?

Today in America we honor the life of an important leader in our nation’s history.  A man who not only dreamed, but acted as well—Martin Luther King, Jr.

Of course, Dr. King is best known for his “I have a dream” speech in Washington.  It’s a persuasive speech, a visionary peek into the man’s very soul.  He shared with us the pathway to a preferred future of racial equality.  He inspired us that it could be true.  But most importantly, he showed us how it could be done.

Outdoor Truths
A comedian once quipped, “aim low boys, they’re all ridin’ Shetland ponies.” That’s one of the funniest one-liners I’ve ever heard. Yet one thing that bow hunters are very familiar with is aiming low. If a deer is almost directly under our tree stand we are instructed to put our first pin about two or three inches below the place we want to hit. If that same deer is 27 yards away and above our line of sight and we are hunting from the ground, we are also instructed to aim low.
