To Do This Weekend: Don't like football? McKeesport Little Theater, 1614 Coursin St., presents "Over the River and Through the Woods," by Joe DiPietro. The comedy tells the story of an Italian-American man in New Jersey whose family tries to keep him from moving to find his dream job. "Over the River" runs tonight and tomorrow at 8 p.m. and at 2 p.m. Sunday. Call (412) 673-1100 or visit the MLT website.






Your Comments are Welcome!

In Quad A, the four best teams have made it to the Semi-Finals. No doubt. If our Tigers can contain the Vikings from Central early and stick around, they will find a way to win. Our kids are battle tested. With the exception of Norwin, Central has beaten a who’s who? of cupcakes, set-ups and tomato cans. They were impressive against Bethel Park last week. They are not playing BP tonight…..

Besides, who wouldn’t want to see a McKeesport/Gateway rematch?

In single A, I hope that Serra & Clairton both survive stiff oppositionand advance. That is the game Class A fans have been waiting to see.

I wonder who would be playing Duquesne tonight if it hadn’t been for a few stuffed shirts in Harrisburg…..

But hey, we’re talkin’ football, not politics.

GO TIGERS!
