Boston Herald Reporter "Chuckles" at Save The Spartans

Got this email today out-of-the-blue from Dan Ventura from The Boston Herald:

"Part of the problem in Stoneham is that too many people had their head in the sand over this issue. I get a chuckle when people such as yourself claim you didn't know this was going on until the Globe article. Perhaps if more of you had read the Boston Herald article back on March 14, there would have been a groundswell movement started sooner. The article clearly stated that high schools sports in Stoneham was in deep trouble. The problem didn't start with the Globe article on June 23rd."

Save The Spartans has made it quite clear from the beginning that we were woefully behind on this story - as were many other former Stoneham residents who don't follow the town's politics closely. But does the fact that we were late to this situation mean we have to stifle our impulses to do something to change it? We don't think so - how 'bout you?
