PLEASE NOTE: There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

ALSO NOTE: Derisive name-calling of an individual or group will result in the entire comment being deleted. This includes the terms "stupid" and "idiot" and similar references.

Welcome to our new online comments feature. Before you can join the discussion, you must first register with Disqus and verify your email address.

Once you do, your comments will post after they have been reviewed by a moderator.

We welcome your thoughts and your opinions, including unpopular ones. We ask only that you keep the conversation civil and clean.

Not all comments are deemed printable. Some are disqualified, at the newspaper’s discretion, for a number of reasons. Here are some typical practices to avoid in trying to get your comment printed:

There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

Don’t state as a fact something that is unsubstantiated or that our editors wouldn't know to be true.

Don’t presume someone’s guilt in a case when it hasn't been established by a court.

Don’t assail or impugn an identifiable individual or group. If you have that kind of criticism, sign your name and submit it as a Letter to the Editor. (There is some leeway on this in connection with public officials, but it is not unconditional.)

Don’t use profanity. This includes the term “tea bagger.”

Don’t be incendiary or tasteless. Those qualities are subjective, of course, and our editors will be the arbiters.

Do not identify yourself in the main content area of the article content form. Only by enforcing this rule can the moderators prevent unscrupulous commenters from falsely identifying themselves as someone they are not.

Don't type in all caps. It is considered the Internet equivalent of shouting.

In sports articles, do not criticize officiating.

Remember, moderators are not allowed to edit any article comments. If an article comment fails any of the above criteria, the entire comment will be deleted.

We monitor comments Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Approval of comments outside these times may be delayed.

Tough night for Malone

Press-Republican

OGDENSBURG — The Franklin Academy Huskies dropped a dismal 40-6 loss to the Ogdensburg Friday night in their Northern Football Conference opener.

The Blue Devils took advantage of several Malone physical and mental errors to go out to a 34-0 halftime lead. Also, Malone quarterback Jordan Cosgrove was injured.

With just seconds left in the first half after the Blue Devils scored their fourth touchdown of the second quarter, Malone senior halfback Darren Fullum was hit hard on a kickoff return and was eventually taken off by stretcher.

One of several poor plays in the punting game led to the first OFA touchdown in the opening quarter as they received the ball on the Huskies 25.

Jarred Morrow, who went 6-for-7 for 133 yards in one half of play, found Joel King for a nine yards to cap a 4-play drive.

Morrow tossed another touchdown pass in the second quarter on a 43-yard catch and run by Owen Luckie just minutes after he had scored on a 8-yard run of his own.

Senior running back Kris Folsom scored twice in the second quarter — a 2-yard run early in the quarter that was set up by a Huskie fumble and a 1-yard run with just 13 seconds left.

The Blue Devils got their final score on the first play of the third quarter on a 80-yard kickoff return by Eric Barr. Barr also had four extra point kicks on the night.

With both teams going to their bench, Malone finally got on the scoreboard with 2:46 remaining as junior Zac Peck hauled in a 8-yard pass from sophomore Mitch Gallagher.

Also Friday night, Massena defeated St. Lawrence, 21-2. Malone entertains Saranac Lake next week while OFA plays Peru.
