"What the Hell They Got to Do with Ohio?"
George Voinovich, late Gov. of Ohio, said it best back in 2009 when asked, what is wrong with the Republican Party? He answered: “We got too many Jim DeMints (South Carolina) and Tom Coburns (Oklahoma). It’s the southerners. They get on TV and go ‘errr, errrr.’ People hear them and say, '…these people, they’re southerners. The party’s being taken over by southerners. What the hell they got to do with Ohio?'"

John Jay Takes 2018 Season Opener Versus Somers
Last night at Somers High School, the Tuskers opened with two first down drives and quickly showed that they had a grinding running game on the heels of FB Jack Kaiser. Stalling across midfield, though, Somers soon realized that they were up against a stampede of their own.

Somers Turns Cornwall Over in 28-7 Victory in State Regionals
On Saturday Afternoon at Mahopac High School, Somers began its State Regional Quarterfinal Match up against Cornwall with a quick three and out. Both teams then held serve through the next three possessions by fumbling the ball away each time. But Somers broke decisively, and Somers' ace Messiah Horne gave Cornwall no return as he burst through the line for a 57-yard touchdown run. The stampede begun, Cornwall could not get a grip and an onslaught of turnovers allowed the Tuskers to easily string up yet another opponent.

When considering players at Quarterback for a fantasy football team, there are several factors that have to be weighed.

Best Football Movies Based on True Stories
There's nothing better than a sports movie. In my humble opinion, they showcase everything great about watching a movie. They usually include an inspiring journey (accompanied by a fun montage with a great song), adversity, teamwork, and overall, perseverance. That certainly is the case with my favorite subcategory of the sporting film industry, football movies based on true stories.
