An easy answer for track DQ controversies

By ANDY KIRKALDY Before every varsity girls’ lacrosse game, the athletes line up for a stick check. The referees place a ball in the pocket of each of their sticks to make sure they are legal — not too deep — and thus don’t give the athlete a ball-control advantage.

That official ritual popped into my head when I read about the controversial disqualifications of a Burlington long jumper and a Champlain Valley girls’ relay running team at the May 30 New England qualifying meet in Essex.

The short flight of the Bird

By Karl Lindholm

I saw The Bird before he was The Bird.

Here’s the story:

Many years ago (early 1970s), my good friend Jim was the basketball coach at Auburn High outside Worcester, Mass. Home in New England for a visit, I stopped to visit Jim and Candy on the night of the big hoop tilt between Auburn and Algonquin Regional High.

Odds, ends and an annual May article

By Matt Dickerson

April is over — or it will be by the time most of you read this. May 1 is opening day of spring turkey season in Vermont. Seems like I’ve seen more turkeys this year than usual. Everywhere I drive. Cornfields and hay fields and lawns next to roads all over the county. Plenty of hens and toms both, keeping good company.

Sports Fans

By Andy Kirkaldy

We sports fans have a championship-or-bust mentality. Where else but in the sports world can the Buffalo Bills or Minnesota Vikings, each of whom have played in, but lost, four Super Bowls, be considered some of the greatest losers of all time?

The President Proves Himself

By Matt Dickerson

It turns out that the president really does know how to handle a challenge.

And no, I am not talking about Barack Obama. I’m talking about Brian Cadoret, the president of the New Haven River Angler’s Association.

By Karl Lindholm

Happy New Year!

The baseball season is upon us once again. Praise the Lord.

Addison County is Boston Red Sox country. Tolerant folks that we are, however, we allow a few Yankee interlopers to live among us.
