MINNESOTA SCORES DOWN
The website minnesota-scores.com is not up and running. The popular site has been down for 24 hours. Many people used the site to get games that other media may have missed. One of the sites I checked said the name expired on September 3, 2006, but I believe they were running after that date. Here is hoping they come back online.

MICHIGAN VIDEO UP
Again ABC12 out of Saginaw/Flint & Bay City has highlights leading off with Flint Northern and Southwestern Academy. Two other games are featured. This is must see tv.
