Comment Guidelines

Presidio Sports encourages our readers to comment on our stories. It’s a great way for fans to congratulate athletes on jobs well done and accomplishments worth noting. It is also a forum for our readers to have their voice heard, and we respect that. Presidio Sports supports the presence of a public forum in which voices can be heard, but we ask for your cooperation in making the discourse civil and good natured.
