I was very glad to see the new scoreboard and sound system move forward at Bronco Stadium. The Boise State athletic department announced that it will be in place by at least the third home game of the season on September 28. It will be mounted on top of the new football building in the…… MORE

Half Way There
The First Half is over – who excels in the Second Half? The 4th of July is generally considered the halfway point in a baseball season. This season for most teams, they played their 81st game over the weekend. So today's blog will deal with the first half of the season and what I look…… MORE
Will The National League Take The DH?
Saw a story in the Statesman this morning above the box scores and to the left of the standing and today's pitching matchups that I hope isn't true. The story was titled "Is the DH headed for the NL, too?" My reaction is I hope not and I hope that the American League would dump…… MORE
It’s Boise Hawks Season!
The minor league baseball season starts for the Boise Hawks tonight. You can hear all of the games with Mike Safford on 1350 the Ticket. If you are like most fans you'll go to the game and just enjoy it and not no much about the players that are taking the field. As someone who…… MORE

Bad Week For Baseball
It was a bad week for baseball umpires. Two badly blown calls in two games last week. Calls that I don't see how were missed. These weren't out/safe, or ball/strike that an umpire has to make a snap judgment on. These were looking at an instant replay for as long as necessary and simply not…… MORE
New Football Schedules
The Mountain West recently released the entire 2013 football schedule. In a conference that plays divisions and doesn't play everyone, who you play can play a role in who wins. Boise State arguably plays the toughest three teams from the West Division – San Diego State, Fresno State, and Nevada – and faces two of…… MORE
It’s Never Too Early!
The first month of the baseball season is always interesting. Fans panic when a team gets swept in a three game series. Others get excited when their team wins five or six in a row. To compare it with football, where they play a 16 game regular season, winning one football game would equal a…… MORE
