On paper, it's not quite the showdown it was 365 days ago in Missoula. But what's on paper has never mattered much in the nail meeting between the Montana Grizzlies and Montana State Bobcats. So, it doesn't matter that the No. 2 Cats (11-0) are 16.5 point faviorites, or that somehow, the No. 9 Grizzlies (8-3) could still end up with a top eight seed in the FCS playoffs with a win over their hated rival. Stats don't matter, weather doesn't matter. Nothing really does. All that...

We see preludes of Thanksgiving when the harvest comes in, when the fall colors brighten the store fronts, and when pumpkin spice returns to the menus. It's all a foretaste that prepares our hear...
You know, Lord, sometimes while out shopping, it can be quite interesting when passing by several others who are/were chatting away. One gal seemed to do the most chatting and mentioned how overwhelmed she was, just thinking about the future and all the problems that she and her hubby had to tackle - which all seemed, right then, that they were way too big. Her friend then spoke and said, "Marty, you sit right near me in church, didn't you hear Pastor mention that WE are to...
