What do you think of a Gwinnett all-star game?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Gwinnett Touchdown Club agreed Tuesday night to create an annual all-star game to be played one week after the state finals.
Called the Rivalries of Gwinnett All-Star Football Game, the inaugural event will take place Friday, Dec. 21, at Brookwood Community Stadium. Tickets will be $5.
Sixty-six players — at least two from each school and no more than six — will participate.

Ohmm, Ohmm, Ohmm …
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
This sounds so un-Gwinnett. Then again, times have changed.
Gwinnett County Parks & Recreation is hosting His Holiness Paramhans Swami Maheshwarananda for a lecture and yoga workshop next week.
We’re not kidding.
Maheshwarananda (aka Swamiji), so states a county news release, “is the founder of the International Sri Deep Madhavananda Ashram Fellowship, and is creator of a comprehensive master system called Yoga in Daily Life.
“The main points of Swamiji’s teachings are physical, mental, social and spiritual health; respect for life; tolerance for all religions, cultures and nationalities; global peace; protection of human rights and values; protection of environment; and preservation of nature,” the release states.
That’s a mouthful, and a lot of punctuation to boot. (Five semi-colons, four commas and a period, all in one sentence).
Mahesh … um, the yoga master is scheduled to speak at the Bogan Park Community Center, 2723 N. Bogan Road, Buford at 8 p.m. Monday. The event also will feature performances of Indian dance and music.
On Wednesday, the master is scheduled to lead a yoga workshop from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at the Bogan Center. The cost is $25.
Participants can go to www.gwinnettparks.com or call the Bogan Community Center at 770-614-2060 to register.
