- Friend of Out of Left Field Adam Radwanski, one of the brilliant minds behind Boatmen Blog , has taken a position with the Globe & Mail's editorial board — and he might end up doing some blogging. Adam was working for macleans.ca . There's always eternal gratitude here that Boatmen crew were supportive of the blog when it was first getting started last summer.
This is as good a time to any to say there's uncertainty here with how to blog the CFL this season. It will be chronicled somehow, but probably not game-in, game-out. - Friend and one-time Simcoe Reformer colleague Samantha Craggs isn't having the typical slack Friday before a long weekend — the aboriginal day of action demonstration in Deseronto falls under the umbrella of her beat with the Belleville Intelligencer. Best of luck, Sam; not that you'll need it.
- Speaking of the old Reformer beat, an athlete we covered, Port Dover, Ont.'s Megan Timpf, is on Team Canada's roster this weekend at the Canada Cup International Women's Fastpitch Tournament in Surrey. Timpf, an infielder, and her teammates face the Dominican Republic in their first game of the tournament tomorrow at 9:30 Eastern.
That reminds us: Two years ago, Timpf was playing in the tournament for the first time. After one game, she got a surprise when her high school principal Bob Foster, came up to say hello — he'd made a point to cheer on a former student, more than 3,000 km from home. Now that's an educator who cares. (Actually, the story was Foster made a sidetrip while visiting a family member out there, but that's neither here nor there.)
Anyway, it'll be light blogging over the weekend... just a few baseball updates.
