Welcome to International Chocolate Day!
The National Confectioners Association (NCA) celebrates International Chocolate Day on Sept. 13. There's only one way to celebrate chocolate and that is by eating it.
Sure we know that chocolate can be high in calories and apparently it's very bad for dogs. But there are plenty of good reasons to eat chocolate, even if it's not Sept. 13.

Syracuse football notebook: The heat was on in the Carrier Dome - The Juice Online/ (the juice; Salamone)
A little of this, and a little of that as we try to cool off after spending almost five hours (one hour of socializing and four hours watching the game) from Syracuse University’s 62-28 loss to the Louisville Cardinals in the sauna..oops, we mean the Carrier Dome on Friday night.
The Heat Is On
Earlier in the day, a media source reported that the Carrier Dome would finally get air condition as part of the renovation project. It couldn’t come too soon.
The temperature outside of the Carrier Dome was 84 degrees. Inside, it had to be close to 100. Complete dead air.
Hats off to the SU Strength and Conditioning staff for getting the Syracuse players in such top conditioning in the off-season, something that is needed with the fast-paced Dino Babers offense. And certainly, it will play to the Orange’s favor as the season goes on, as the team is in great shape. Not once during the game did a Syracuse player go down with cramps.

Auburn Doubledays attendance continues to trend upward (PS: Kramer)
The Auburn Doubledays are one of only two New York-Penn League franchises to boost attendance for a third-straight season in 2016.
A total of 52,811 fans attended 37 home games at Falcon Park this season, an average of 1,427 per contest. The Doubledays, Class A affiliate of Washington, averaged 1,408 in 2015, 1,240 in 2014 and 1,158 in 2013.
That's an increase of 23.2 percent per game in three seasons under the direction of the current general manager Mike Voutsinas.
Tri-City is the only other NY-P team to improve attendance for three straight seasons.
