is it possible to put any less effort into a preview?
with the seemingly growing support for HS football,
you'd think that the only written source of media, might spend more than a day putting together an incise preview of the 165 teams in the GHA. just gets worse & worse every year.

I thought last years "Myspace" layout they did was horrible.....this is just as bad. KT2000....you need to publish the Gridiron guide yearly.

The "theme" is a matter of taste. But I just perused it quickly and immediately noticed 3 or 4 glaring mistakes. For instance they captioned a picture of Jarvis Moore with "Lee" and they called North Shore "Northwood" in another...

Chronicle led off the sports section with a blurb about how serious they're taking their HS coverage this season... puhleeze! :)

I like it how they continually make mistakes on school names and recalling scores....

Who's your top 5 in the area for 5a?

1. Katie Cats
2. Northwood Bovines
3. Baycity lee Ducks
4. Fair HS Platypuses
5. Peachland Miners

It's good for the stadium map.

I would say also for the schedules, but I'm sure some of them are wrong. :puke

Any word on weather or not she helped with the preveiw this year?

Atleast we would be able to say the staff was good looking to make up for their lack of knowledge.
