The Owner's Box After Dark, Ep. 35.

Plenty is jam-packed into the 35th episode of my video podcast -- our first of the new year. 

We start with a half-hour of analysis of the rules changes that local high school basketball players will need to master as they begin a COVID-challenged season this week. Former Xaverian basketball coach Alex Salachi joins me to break down the alterations in the game that are supposed to make the game more safe.

After the break, I take a critical look at the Patriots' season-ending win over the Jets (because of which they sacrificed five spots in the first-round order of the upcoming NFL Draft), and a loving look at the Northwestern football team's dominating victory over Auburn in the Citrus Bowl on New Year's Day.

And I also update the plans of two local cable TV systems to provide live streaming of the home games for Mansfield High and King Philip Regional -- strangely enough, for whom I'll be providing the play-by-play starting tonight.

Finally (although we do this right off the bat), I announce the winner of the "The Owner's Box After Dark" winter wool hat. Yes, we really did get one!

Enjoy my three wardrobe changes as well! Happy New Year!
