Baseball has been America's pastime sport for ages. The tide is slowly turning towards football. More people watch football, even if your team is terrible. But I think otherwise. Baseball is not dying at all. I was at the dentist a couple days ago and had a great conversation with the secretary there. She was […]

The Power have a new wide receiver in the mix for playing time. A.J. Jackson, from California (Pa) University has been assigned to the team and could contribute quickly to the team. Jackson set school records in 2009 with 101 receptions for 1424 yards and 18 TD's. He totaled 2130 yards and 28 TD's in […]
