Can I widgetize a page?

[timglase]

Perhaps the title of this post doesn't most-accurately ask my question.

I currently use Outreach (www.timglase.com) and Enterprise (www.magicsportscomplex.com), but have a new project that I'm still shopping for a theme for.

My issue centers around pages and category feeds. Is it possible to have a page title Football with some general info page-type info including overview, standings, etc, then underneath show the latest headlines of stories that were tagged "football"?

For the site objectives, I'm beginning to think Platinum would be a good start for this. However, I'd like some insight on the question above before moving forward.

Thanks!

Tim

PS: My apologies if you deem this a "Theme support" question. I regarded it a general question before moving forward with a specific Theme for this new project.
