Having 10 Montgomery County teams in the state playoffs is the bomb dot com. We have three returning from last season and two that haven't seen postseason play since the 1990's. Ever wonder what song dominated the airwaves when these teams were in a playoff game? Best movie of that month? Or the best selling video game of that year? Of course not, but I did. Anything within the past five years isn't all that impressive but anything beyond that makes you wonder what you were doing at that age. Well, here they are; the #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100, best movie of the month, and the top selling video game of the year when our 10 playoff teams last touched postseason grass..
