The Owner's Box After Dark, Ep. 27.

It's another double-podcasting day, and it's timely, too.

Foxboro High School girls' basketball coach Lisa Downs makes her first visit to the "After Dark" platform, as we discuss the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the quest to crank up a winter sports season in Massachusetts. Downs, the coach of the defending Division 2 state-champion Warriors, shares her concerns about the lengthy process to get a season approved by the MIAA, and the pitfalls it may face as the COVID-19 pandemic begins its 38th week. She also talks about the concerns she has for her student-athletes' well-being if they are denied another high school sports season.

The conversation lasts about 25 minutes, but we had a lot to talk about, so it continues on for another 25 in Episode 29 of the audio-only The Owner's Box podcast, due out later Tuesday.

After the break, I delve into the Patriots' stunning upset win over the Baltimore Ravens at rainy Gillette Stadium. And I even offer a few tips about how to make a decent Chicago-style deep-dish pizza at home. It's all yours for just a click on the box below. And keep an eye out for the new episode of The Owner's Box, coming shortly to a podcast-receiving device near you.
