The New Champs

Saturday was a banner day for the athletes at The Monterey County Herald. The newspaper's basketball team swept through the media competition at the Good Old Days invitational tournament to earn the championship trophy. 

I don't mean to trash talk the competition -- specifically, KSBW-TV, The Weekly, The Californian, Jammin' 97.6 -- but The Herald was simply superior. 

It was a great Pacific Grove type of day. The sun was out, the wind was down and the crowds at Good Old Days really seemed to be enjoying themselves. Mayor Dan Cort was a gracious host: He was furious at The Herald for the front-page tree ordinance story on Saturday, but refrained from griping about it when I encountered him at Good Old Days later that day.
