George and I are back on our show a week from tomorrow and will be on the show twice a week with lots of state wide stuff and lots of interviews. The show will be oriented to Vermont topics and that’s what will set us apart from other shows. Of course we will be talking […]
by Bill Murphy Hit the road again is the theme song for the Red Sox for basically the rest of the 2016 season. Beginning with Monday’s make-up game versus Cleveland, they play thirty of their final forty-six games on the road. At least the rumor is, they will open next year at home for […]
There will be a new football team in Division 3 high school football this year in the state of Vermont and that will be a CO-OP team combining MSJ and Poultney. Obviously a move made because of the small numbers at both schools. So MSJ and Poultney will have a CO-OP team similar to other […]
My prediction was Carolina 35 Denver 20. Boy did I ever whiff on that one! I really thought Cam Newton would do pretty much what he has done all year. I never anticipated how bad he would be. The defense had a lot to do with it, but I probably didn’t give them enough credit. […]
Usually during the playoffs or the Super Bowl I write down some thoughts for the following day’s blog. Yesterday was no different. Other than the fact that I think I’ve now got a sinus infection. Two weeks straight of sickness-this thing has to go. Anyway, enough with the poo poo party, here’s my thoughts: I […]
For both the Norwich Cadets and the Vermont Catamounts it was a weekend to host hockey teams above them in the conference standings. The results could not have been more different.

I think the Super Bowl pre-game show has already started and if I can I will try to only tune into the Super Bowl at kick-off time. Here goes: Super Bowl teams who are #1 in defense are 8-0, but I’m going against that trend mainly because even though I think the Denver defense is […]
What they say is true … all good things must come to an end, and so it is for the Norwich University hockey Cadets streak of regular season titles … the Cadets run of 17 straight will end this month … Norwich was officially eliminated on Saturday. It has been a frustrating campaign for Norwich […]
By Bill Murphy Lets say you have two choices in Vermont’s two largest Girls Basketball Divisions. You can choose the defending champion OR you can take the field. In both cases, it is clear how everyone will line-up. In Division I, the consensus easily says Champlain Valley Union. In Division II, the clear pick is […]
Seriously who cares about the NFL Pro Bowl? It is by far the worst pro all star game of them all. Also who cares that all seven Patriot players named dropped out? Players drop out of that game like flies all the time. Get over it! The NHL All Star game isn’t much better even […]
