One of the best local sports journalists in the country - John Murphy, aka the Prep Dog, aka berdooman - has broken on through to the other side.
Please remember him kindly. He was a good dude, had impeccable style and his very own taste in music.

My beat includes two mid-major D1 🏀 programs & they collided for the last time as non-conference opponents on Tuesday night.
Last year, UC Riverside won by 1. This year, CBU dominated in a rout.
Ended up with a centerpiece today that could divide city! 😬

And an announcement this morning with a reel on Instagram featuring popular local social media celebrity "Mark from Riverside" and Riverside Pro Soccer's Greg Scott.
I spoke to Scott 2 weeks ago, but it was off the record.
Major hurdles still to be cleared but this is first sign this is serious.

Reliable sources are confirming that the new stadium proposal in Riverside, Calif. - my city - is indeed associated with an effort to bring in a USL-1 side.
I could be getting a text from the potential PTO today.
Currently writing a reaction piece from soccer people around the city.
