The weak link? Achilles heal? The problems are deeper than "too many injuries.
Failure in the last two off seasons. A fish rots from the head, and this fish is no different. The last two off-seasons have failed to net a big "middle of the order" bat.

GOFFSTOWN - 30 August 2010: On August 29th, many candidates came to Goffstown throughout the day to mingle 
with voters in hopes of winning their approval and
votes in the upcoming Primary on September 14th. The BBQ event provided an opportunity for questions and answers. Jack Kimball who is running for Governor on a platform of "Jack Means Business" was on his mark with voters with every question that came forward.

It should be about the kids. The kids play the games, they make the plays, they pitch, they hit, they run, they lose, and they win. It’s all about the kids. Yet we get so caught up in the teams, the games, the outcomes, the calls, the results of a kid’s game. The kids often don’t even realize how big a deal their actions are and the lasting effect they have on us all. The innocence of kids is at least half the beauty of all this.

Goffstown - 8 August 2010: AcoustiYah performed outdoors at apotheca on Saturday afternoon to a fairly good size crowd. The video to the right is the 1st of several songs currently in production. Thanks to Alyssa for bringing such a great talent to the Village at her shop. The weekend was full of music in Goffstown and New Boston. "When Irene and I moved to Israel 4 years ago, we never imagined this disc would take place. Somehow, we learned the language, found some great Israeli friends to play with, and were inspired to write these songs. Half in Hebrew, and half in English, this disc is born out of our experiences, emotions, and interactions with Israeli | people and culture over these last few years. Our hope is that these songs would somehow encourage you through the challenges we face in our lives and in the world today.  "Peace, Anthony from acoustiYah |
