From the editor 11-30-23

Oh, that was CLOSE. And I don’t even mean the game.

But, let’s do that first.

That was CLOSE! It was a tie score right till the end. The Dartmouth Indians almost pulled off a crazy play with no time on the clock, too. But, phew! See page 12 for details.

I have to say that the Thanksgiving Day game is SOOO much more fun when we win. And this was a downright thrilling game.

Welcome Samuel Simoes to the photographer pool. Look at that cover shot he got! Pretty cool, eh? I admit, I had no clue what everyone was screaming about. But I did get the shot of the kick. (Welcome to my world.)

Okay, the other thing that was close, because QR Codes SUCK! They didn’t give us a program book with  the players and their numbers. It was online only. 

But, guess what? When it came time to write the story, I couldn’t access the roster. “Access denied.”

I am seriously hating QR codes right now. 

THANK YOU to the FHS Gridiron Facebook page for getting a screen shot of it to me after I asked very late on deadline night. (Yeah, the roster’s online, but it has duplicates…how can two kids have the same number?)

We have other good stuff in here, of course: Select Board on page 4; Acushnet had a bomb scare (page 3). And the Northeast Maritime Institute dedicated the gym to Joseph Machado. See page 4 for why.

Please be sure to notice who our advertisers are so you can tell them you saw their ads in the Neighb News. And, thank you to our readers who donated, donate regularly, or will donate soon (hint, hint) to support local journalism. It doesn’t get more local than the Neighb News. 

Until next week then, see ya

Glory to Ukraine!
Glory to the Heroes!
