Football to return to Caseville

From our Facebook page: BREAKING NEWS: The last football game played by Caseville was on Oct. 5, 1990. That's about to change. Caseville AD Tom Kennedy has informed us that the School Board has approved the return of football. The Tribune will have a full story on this next week.

The blog will remain

Although we have been dark for a few weeks now, I want to reassure everyone that the blog will remain. I will attempt to update it a few times a week. The blog will have a different feel to it. I will probably provide some quick hitting comments or observations about sports at all levels. Also, we are attempting to renew our commitment to more feature stories. We would love to hear your ideas. Keep in mind, we do have a limited staff, so we probably can't do every idea that comes our way (but we will try our best). As has become a staple, we will be continuing the blog football contest in the fall. We will also be doing the NCAA Basketball Tournament Contest through cbssports.com.

Thank you for your continued patience and support.
