With the excitement of high school football playoffs we decided to record the first episode of what we hope to be a weekly sports podcast covering local sports at The Saratogian. It doesn't have a name yet so we're accepting suggestions.

In Episode 1:

Chris Maley and David M. Johnson break down the Section II football first round playoffs matchups for Saratoga Springs, Shenenedehowa, Schuylerville, Burnt Hills, Mechanicville, Corinth and Greenwich. They also talk about Peyton Manning's right arm.

Questions, comments or thoughts on what we should talk about next week? Contact us on Twitter or shoot us an e-mail to sports@saratogian.com.

The Shenendehowa student body voted on its new logo, and the winner is:

It seems like the next logical step is to find a name for that intense-looking horse. Send suggestions to @SaratogaSports and we'll retweet the best ones.
