Bob CollinsA few days ago, a local TV station gave a ridiculous amount of airtime to a local high school football player who announced what college he wants to go to.
We love our sports and the people who play them, but something is a little out of whack. Football players aren’t going to change many people’s lives.

On Wednesday Thursday, Maple Lake did.
