A story about family, loss and starting over, and also about Fresno, food trucks and old baseball cards. https://t.co/7F8KCbgib2
How I’m running to my car this morning.
RIP Samuel Monroe Jr., famous for his roles in Menace II Society and The Player’s Club, has passed away at age 52 due to complications from meningitis, according to his mother.
It was particularly rewarding to work on this with my good friend and original Yahoo Sports editor @KevinKaduk.

I'm saddened to hear about the passing of Darryl Howerton, a Fresno guy who covered the NBA in the '90s and 2000s for Sport and Hoop magazines.
I'd run into him around town every so often. He still had a sportswriter's curiosity and a love for basketball. He'll be missed.
