The last item on the City Council’s agenda could eventually be a big deal down the line for the city. But not right now. A proposed measure brought before the City Council by several residents to be considered was put aside for a rainy day. Whenever you say rent control in Culver City, it figures to resonate with residents on both sides of the fence. Protect Culver City, a grassroots organization of residents and business owners, is in the middle of this latest insurgency to fight the rent control ordinance the City Council passed earlier t...

At the end of every sports season there is only one champion. There is only one team that can hold up that championship trophy so when a great team misses the championship mark it's a big disappointment. In the case of the 2019 Centaur football team the hurt runs deep because they went into the CIF semifinal Division 5 game with a perfect 12-0 record and the No. 1 ranking. Losing to St. Paul 14-10 on November 22, was a bitter pill to swallow but sports can humble even the greatest warriors....
The 2019 Los Angeles Chargers season has reached a point after thirteen weeks that almost no pundit thought would occur. The Chargers are essentially done for the year. Their hopes for the playoffs are basically over after a 23-20 loss in Denver to the Broncos. They have four more games on the schedule but with a record of 4-8, this team is not going to the playoffs. The Chargers lost another heartbreaker on Sunday against the Broncos, with Bronco kicker Brandon McManus nailing a 53-yard field...
What a difference a week... and an opponent makes. The Los Angeles Rams jumped back into serious contention for the NFL Playoffs as they handily beat the Arizona Cardinals, 34-7. Coupled with the Minnesota Vikings 37-30 loss on Monday Night Football to the Seahawks, the Rams are only one game behind the Vikings for the final NFC Playoff spot with four games to go. It was the Rams most complete performance of the year. The defense established the tone at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glend...

Why does it seem (rightly or wrongly) the City of Culver City always likes to tweak Fox Hills nose? I guess one of the main reasons is that area has approximately 5,000 people but no one has ever been elected to the City Council. They don’t have a soul to protect their rights’ and voice their concerns. Look at the new voting method coming soon. If one takes a survey to place the booths where oh where would city hall put it to maximize participation? Frankly, most would agree someplace in the...
The exciting part of the football playoffs, at every level, is that the playoffs are single elimination games. This can lead to some stunning upsets, and this season in the CIF football playoffs have been no exception. In a clash of two distinct offensive styles, the Swordsmen from St. Paul High School in Santa Fe Springs upset the Culver City Centaurs, 14-10. For St. Paul, the victory propels them to a Section 5 Division Championship match-up at home against Aquinas High School of San...
Turn out the Friday Night lights... there was no joy at Culver City High School last Friday as the 2019 football season came to an abrupt end. The previously undefeated Centaurs were upset by St. Paul High at home, 14-10, in the CIF Division 5 Semifinals match at Jerry Chabola Stadium. The game was a throwback to days of yore when running games dominated and scores were low. The Swordsmen (12-1) employed a power rushing game plan and stuck with it. The Centaurs (12-1) entered the game as one of...
