Each year the Calaveras Redskins and the Bret Harte Bullfrogs meet on a Friday evening in November in a cross county rivalry that dates back a few generations. To victor goes the bell. The bell has resided in San Andreas almost permanently for as far back as most of us can remember. Every year, all teams enter their seasons with great hopes and dreams, and this season was no different. Every year, the residents of Calaveras County wonder if this will be the year that Bret Harte beats arch enemy Calaveras. And remember this is a rivalry that goes to the soul of both schools. There is nothing like a loss to the other school that eats at your gut more.

Let’s start off today with a thank you to all the men and women who have represented our country in the Armed Forces. If it weren’t for the sacrifices that these Americans have made, we would be able to live our lives with the freedom and choice that we all enjoy. Thank you.

It’s been three days since the Cubs acquired former Oakland ace Rich Harden, and those three days have shown a lot about the club. Harden has said he couldn’t be happier in pinstripes and has so far looked like a good fit in the clubhouse. He instantly has formed a sort of kinship with fellow British Columbian Ryan Dempster, and has received the praise of pitching coach Larry Rothschild. Like fellow former American Leaguer stud pitcher “CC” Sabathia, Harden has been place right in the middle of the Senior Circuit’s best race so far. With the Central’s big three clubs separated by less than five games, the division could go either way. For the Cubs, Rich Harden will be a key piece in taking their second consecutive title away from Sabathia’s Brewers. Sabathia was acquired a mere 24 hours before Harden, but by no means is Harden any less of a pitcher despite being the consensus second best available pitcher.
