Bumpers Up – April 13, 2023: Enjoy Any Victory
How good is winning! I don’t care that the Eels weren’t “pretty” in defeating the Tigers. Any victory was far better than the alternative. From a selfish perspective, it’s much easier creating site content after a successful weekend. As a…
From The Stands – April 12, 2023: Eels vs Dogs = Genuine Football Rivalry
