Given that the football season is almost in full-swing, it brings to mind the rich sports heritage that we have here in the Mohawk Valley and beyond, and not just locally but also in what we've provided to the national sports community as well, from lending our athletes to erecting a plethora of sports hall of fames within driving distance.

Starting this coming Monday we'll start a two-week series detailing a memorable moment in history, an outstanding athlete who came from here or even give you a tour of a local building, team or group devoted to the love of sports.

Our memories and resources only reach so far, so please feel free to contribute your ideas and maybe we'll include them in our series. Simply comment below or on this post on our Facebook page and remember, we're kicking off this Top-10 countdown on Monday so have a great weekend and wait until you see what we've got in store for you!
