Also, before too much time has passed, I again would like to thank both the Stellar "Catch A Rising Star: and SportsFest A-Town Throwdown staffs for their hospitality over the past two weeks.
As usual, it felt more like a family reunion than a work assignment.
I know there's a rivalry between at least some members of the two staffs, but to me both do a great job and I would miss it if I wasn't able to spend several nights per summer with each group. I have a lot of fun all weekend long.
So a shoutout to the Stellar crew featuring Bob Trinkle, Jay Radio, Bob Wootsick, Matt and Kyle Mosher, Tom Malone, Lisa Franko and the head honchos, Glen Klein and Tony Stellar.
Also an equal thank you to the SportsFest crew that includes Andy McGeehin, Matt Wagner, Andrew Treiber, Justin Hutchinson, Randy Atiyeh, Toomey Anderson and tournament director Chris Lakatosh.
The two staffs may do things in a slightly different way, but it all works. The end result are two excellent tournaments for the teams and their fans.
