Matt Dickerson: Opening day of trout season featured some success stories

Posted on April 25, 2013 |
By Matt Dickerson



As is so often the case in Vermont’s early April, the weather and water conditions leading up to opening day of trout fishing were fickle. When the week began, rivers were running unseasonably low and clear thanks in large part to a lack of snow. Very fishable water levels and visibility, combined with a series of warm sunny days during the first half of the week, seemed to promise a delightful — and perhaps even successful — opening day.

Sports column: How good are the Panthers: Terrific

Posted on April 4, 2013 |
By Karl Lindholm



Whenever Middlebury hosts an NCAA men’s basketball tournament game, I buy extra tickets and wait for the phone call that always comes: “Karl, can you get me a ticket to the Middlebury basketball game?”

“Why, yes I can.”

This is a call, not so long ago, I never imagined getting. I love it. In the past, even when the Panthers were pretty good, the team played before mostly empty seats.

Sports column by Andy Kikaldy: Feedback and criticism always welcome here

Posted on March 7, 2013 |
By Andy Kirkaldy



Every now and then a reminder comes my way that once again we need to explain how we do things around here — we being my editors and I — and that our relationship with readers really is, or at least ideally should be, a two-way street.

The latest reminder came courtesy of my ongoing participation on the Burlington Free Press sports blogs, which the folks up at that paper are kind enough to allow.

Sports Column: Wish list for 2013:Large wild brookies

Posted on February 28, 2013 |
By Matt Dickerson



I began 2013 with a mental fishing “wish list.” There are a few perennial entries: an all-expenses-paid trip for Atlantic salmon in Labrador or Newfoundland; more time to fish in my favorite Vermont rivers (plus a trip or two with family and friends to Maine and New York); and an increase in the quality trout waters in the state.

Karl Lindholm: A Mess: Sports fan and hypocrite

Posted on February 21, 2013 |
By Karl Lindholm



Our sportsworld is a mess — and I’m a hypocrite.

I am both a fan and a skeptic. Much of what happens in sports at its highest levels I deplore, yet my days and nights are taken up by watching games or by reading and writing about sports. Sports are an essential part of my life.

Sports column by Andy Kirkaldy: Extra thoughts on Sunday's super broadcast

Posted on February 7, 2013 |
By Andy Kirkaldy



Call this the Super Bowl leftovers column. I don’t mean the quesadillas and guacamole I pulled out of the Kenmore for Monday lunch, but a few random afterthoughts about the game and broadcast. If I find my writing momentum stalling, I’ll go into a dark room for half an hour and try to regroup.
