New scoreboard



Workers were getting a few things done late during the Cowboys' scrimmage on the new North scoreboard. I got a shot from the press box very late.

It's looking good. Can't wait to hear the sound system.

Thanks for the memories

As I put my watch up to my ear, I expect to hear click, click, click, as each second moves forward. Kind of like my current days as a sportswriter ... click, click, click. For some reason, though, the watch is silent as it continues time. Again, kind of like my current days of operating Wyoming Sports.org. Yikes, cliche' overload here. The simple fact is my sports website is probably on its last leg. I say probably because in two weeks I will begin a new job as news copy editor/designer for the Wyoming Tribune Eagle in Cheyenne. Not only will I not have the time to cover local sporting events in Laramie, I can see my new employers likely not wanting me to compete against the WTE's fine sports staff. It makes perfect sense and I totally understand. When the position opened a while back, with my wife's blessing and encouragement, I decided to apply for the job. Friday night I was offered the position and I accepted. I do admit it will be a little strange not being a sportswr...

Central night at Goodell Gymnasium

It was Rapid City Central girls’ basketball night Thursday at the King Center as Metro State Denver faced South Dakota Mines in Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference women’s basketball in the King Center. The Roadrunners were represented by 2021 Central graduate Jordon Heckert and 2018 graduate Mya Jones. The Hardrockers countered with 2019 Central graduate Bailey Johnson.

Be thankful, because you can

I was going to write today on Facebook what I was thankful for -- on Thanksgiving -- but who am I kidding? There is not enough room on FB for that, so on the blog I go. I realize that I am a little late in doing so tonight, but I have pretty much been in bed all day sick. That, I'm not thankful for. But I am thankful that, although I kind  of ruined my Mom's Thanksgiving get-together being sick, I am thankful that I was here and my mother was able to take care of me. You're never too old to have your mom take care of you. To start with, I am thankful that the Rapid City Journal had enough faith in me to hire me at the end of the summer, bringing me to the Black Hills again after being away for 30 years. I say that because it became apparent that nobody else in Wyoming had the same faith in me despite all that I accomplished there. I wouldn't have been able to come to Rapid City if not for my brother, Ralph, and his wife, Sharon, as they have brought me into thei...
