Sports galore this weekend

So you thought the Sports barrage was over with the Red Sox World Series win?

Not yet, it isn't. Not even close.

Coming in Saturday's newspapers:

High school football playoff coverage. I love the slice of Americana that you find by going to late-fall football games in Maine. I eat too many french fries but enjoy the games.

Coming in this Sunday's newspapers:

A 10-page special section from our Sports and Advertising departments celebrating the Sox' World Series championship.

Complete coverage of high school soccer and field hockey state championships. Central Maine has teams playing in games from East Millinocket to Windham. It's a challenge for our Sports staff and we can't have a photographer at every game (many are being played at the same time), but our coverage will be comprehensive.

A two-page preview of what, in reality, is the 2007 Super Bowl: The undefeated Patriots play the undefated Indianapolis Colts. Tom Brady vs. Peyton Manning. Nice guy Tony Dungy vs. not nice guy Bill Belichick. Wow.

And, of course, we'll have complete coverage of the Patriots-Colts game in Monday's newspapers. You won't have to look hard for that. It will begin on A1.
