In the spring of 1988 I was the low man on the totem poll, which meant when there was a boxing match at some place such as Bally’s, I got to write a short preview story on the main event and a shorter story on the fight itself. Sometimes we’d run a photo, if there wasn’t a game at Bishop Gorman.

With Hawaii officially having rubbed more salt in the gaping wound of what once was the Western Athletic Conference, the Mountain West got a little Mountain Westier on Friday.
When I was in kindergarten, my mom helped me write a letter to a ballplayer on preschool penmanship paper, the kind with the two solid lines and a dotted line in the middle.
Recent developments in the Mountain West Conference recall the board game Monopoly, with commissioner Craig Thompson cast in the role of Rich Uncle Pennybags, minus the top hat and bushy mustache.
