Good morning, everyone.

Well, we need to talk about ourselves for just a moment.

  • First of all, (hey, wake up, Ducks fans!) longtime sports journalist Tyson Alger โ€” who covered the University of Oregon Ducks for The Oregonian and The Athletic, before launching a Substack called The I-5 Corridor โ€” has joined the staff of Lookout Eugene-Springfield. And, yes, he’ll be writing about Ducks athletics. Executive Editor Dann Miller has a column today welcoming Tyson.
  • Second, in four months of existence, Lookout Eugene-Springfield has hit a million page views. Check out founder Ken Doctor’s column today for some more news about what we are up to overall.

OK, thanks for indulging that bit of horn-tooting. We humbly return to the regular news:
