Some professional news, since it's starting to get around: My last day as news adviser at the Purdue Exponent will be the end of next week. I have accepted the editor job of the newspapers in Lafayette, Muncie and Richmond, Indiana, which begins at the beginning of June.

MASSIVE Saturday in St. Louis sports, right? Check this out . . . #STLCards coverage from @dgoold, @LWorthySports, @TheDanGuerrero, @hochman #STLBlues coverage from @MDeFranks #CitySC coverage from @tomtimm #Battlehawks AND #SLU coaching coverage from @studurando. Adam Wainwright's concert? @kevincjohnson featured it. @gordo and @caesardan grinding, always. If #Mizzou lands another huge football commit, @byEliHoff will have it. @overbey13, @pHalfacre_STL and preps crew never rests. I'm your man on the scene for SLU women's attempt to win WNIT championship. Photographers capturing. Editors coordinating. Stuffed print section. TONS more online. It's a GREAT day for STL, and a GREAT day to subscribe to @stltoday for comprehensive sports coverage. Thanks to readers for making it all possible. Proud to be a small part of Team P-D today. #NewspapersRule

Our P-D family mourns the loss of beloved baseball writing legend, Hall of Famer Rick Hummel. @dgoold wrote a beautiful tribute to Commish. He was a giant in his profession who never made others feel small. Sending love to his family and many, many fans. #tracking-source=home-top-story" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">stltoday.com/sports/basebal…
