With Dedham's football teams not starting up again until the summer, fans will have their eyes glued to tomorrow's AFC Championship game between the 14-3 New England Patriots and the 13-4 Baltimore Ravens. Hot off a 45-10 victory over Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos last weekend, the Patriots have only to survive this weekend in order to secure a spot in the 2012 Super Bowl.

The Marauders lost to rival Norwood 48-18 in their 83rd annual Thanksgiving Day game.
Turnovers and a sluggish start hurt the Marauders Thursday as they lost the 83rd annual Thanksgiving showdown with archrival Norwood, 48-18. The loss at Veteran’s Field was especially tough for the team’s 22 seniors, a group that made up half of the team’s roster. “We gave them the ball to score touchdowns, and in our own zone,” Dedham’s Mikyle Hill said after his final game playing in the crimson and gray. “That’s what really hurt us.” The direction of the game was evident early on when only two plays into the game the Mustangs recovered a fumble on a Marauder reverse at the Dedham 39-yard line. Norwood quarterback Tommy Munro’s resulting pass to Peter Kelly in the back corner of the end zonewould be just one iteration of a common scene …

"I think of guys I knew, some who died and some who lived." Len Farnham said as someone older than 50, the day makes him think that he has yet to see a useful war.
