Covering local still matters. Proud to be a part of the team representing RI’s only legacy media that covered the Junior Amateur this week.

The fact buddy hasn’t apologized for this tweet yet is shocking.
I haven’t called my parents’ house “mom and dad’s” since my oldest was born, the same as any adult with children.
Tony Romo told police he was on his way to see “grandma and grandpa” when he was arrested.
Per publicly posted obituaries, all four of his grandparents appear to be deceased.

Coming up at Cranston West, Mike "Sonny" Kollet's dream was to work in golf. He's doing it in a way he never imagined and at Monday's Rhode Island State Amateur, showed he's more than just an influencer.

I think @MaxPreps provides terrific service with schedule and stats, but it needs to either stop stealing content or start ethically producing its own.
Rant over, sorry to put you through it.
Nobody is having a better spring than @MaxPreps, which continues its undefeated run of stealing content.
This time, they made it more obvious.
Here’s a thread, and I’m apologizing now for complaining about something not enough people care about.
🧵 starts now.
I hate that I’m getting this angry over this, but content aggregation is killing this business. @MaxPreps claims to create high school sports content, but it doesn’t - it aggregates and steals from the people actually doing it.
If you believe a private school “steals” players from public schools, you’re looking at the issue the wrong way.
Families make decisions they believe are best for their children. Coaches don’t own athletes. Schools don’t own athletes.
Instead of blaming other programs, focus on building a program that players want to be a part of.
That’s how you win.
