A big thank you to @protagonistsoccer.bsky.social for wanting to run this. One thing that I hope came across in this is how genuine Cameron is. First thing he did when he said hello pregame was ask what sport my son was training for. He always made a point to make him feel a part of our talks.

Always read @leagueoneupdater.com.

No matter your team this is a good read. Ian sounds like a cool level headed guy. Nice work @lukermartin.bsky.social

reboot 30 Rock with Jazz as Tracy Jordan, who says no

On a personal note, this is the first time I've been issued a media credential through Stormwatch912. Previously it's always been through the Statesboro Herald.

What might have kept Ian Cameron at Tormenta? What's the biggest difference between being an assistant coach vs. head coach? His reaction to Tormenta's hiatus? Are he and his wife expecting another child? (He volunteered that info, I didn't ask.) All that and more from my interview with Cameron.

▪️I had a chance to speak with Jorge Villafaña - former @timbers.com now head coach of the @portlandbangers.bsky.social ▪️Community is important to him and played a large part in returning to Oregon after his playing time was done #RCTID

New at #Stormwatch912: I caught up with former Tormenta Manager Ian Cameron to talk about, well, pretty much everything since his departure from Statesboro. stormwatch912.blogspot.com/2026/06/ian-...

Biggest League in the World (Cup)™️

Back at a soccer game with my oldest.

What two of the wise men said to Mary and Joseph when their buddy had to stop to pee on the way to the manger.

One Knox with fortune deflection (that is an understatement) to get the opening goal minutes into the second half against Greenville.

Spano is absolutely MAHA btw.

Heading to Charleston tomorrow for the Charleston Battery game against Detroit City FC and to catch up with former Tormenta Manager and current Battery assistant Ian Cameron. Hopefully I'll have a new #Stormwatch912 post up Monday morning following my interview with Cameron.

We spoke to Kyle Prewett with AC Boise podcast Pitchside Peregrines for his opinion on what Kickers fans should expect this Saturday in the first ever meeting between the sides - the ups and downs, growing pains and players to watch 👀 @rivercity93.bsky.social

I can promise you #Stormwatch912 is 100 percent AI free.

I wrote this. Google sucks.

The field conditions in Chattanooga are terrible and I understand the frustration of fans that the game is being played with puddles all over the field, but it is objectively hilarious soccer.

A surging Richmond faces a chaotic Chattanooga tonight. Here are four Red Wolves players Richmond fans should keep an eye on 👀 @rivercity93.bsky.social

Appreciate @protagonistsoccer.bsky.social rerunning my Corner Kick sponsor story. Hopefully I didn't sully their good name by appearing on their site.

🚩 This Corner Flag Brought to You by... ▪️ @lukermartin.bsky.social looks into the sticking power of corner flag sponsorship. Polling numerous fans and fellow lower league journalists, he shares his findings about the value of putting your name in the corner www.protagonistsoccer.com/coverage/thi...

Can't recommend enough, if you're in a position to do so, in making 3-day weekends into 4-day weekends by using any personal time off your get at work. Either the Friday before or Tuesday after a Monday holiday.

My favorite part of the “Oh My Gerd, a 16 (or 24) Team Playoff—We Have No Idea What That Will Look Like” discourse is the willful ignorance of FCS (I-AA) where such playoffs have been a thing for over 40 years. (And DII & DIII, but FCS is ostensibly Division I.)

“And it’s deflected out for another #StormWatch912 corner kick” has a great ring to it

Hey, content creators. Remember that you might be the one to inspire someone.

New at #Stormwatch912: "This post brought to you by..." We take a look at corner kick sponsors throughout USL League One because sometimes I just get bored. stormwatch912.blogspot.com/2026/05/this...

As I remain absolutely terrible at actually understanding marketing and self promotion, I've scheduled my latest blog post to publish at 8 a.m. on a holiday Monday.

You people are all bubbled off and don't want true intellectual engagement. Which is why I have disabled replies. bsky.app/profile/core...

I just noticed that. The Madison/Charlotte match didn't have scores then all of a sudden it did.

Why don't all the USL League One scores update after kickoff?

We have company so my wife and her friend are trying to find a true crime documentary to watch tonight and they all seem like they're just "Blonde, White and Gone" from Reggie Dinkins.

Lewie Coyle, Hull City’s captain, wore special ear defenders to raise awareness for autism while walking out of the tunnel for the Championship Play-Off Final on Saturday. A beautiful moment 👏

What better way to celebrate the end of first grade than with a giant water slide

Apple TV should not be allowed to take the Wrigley Friday afternoons from us is nothing sacred

Only slightly less well known is that former Tormenta legend Gabriel Cabral played at UNC-W as well.

inside you there are two wolves:

Super proud of my youngest. He got the Best Speller award in his class and was one of two kids in all of first grade to get the Leadership Award.

Naples with a late equalizer and then they come away with the extra point against Jacksonville in the shootout in USL Cup action.

Greyson Mercer, he of the Dickensian Names list from last week, equalizes for Chattanooga against Birmingham. stormwatch912.blogspot.com/2026/05/what...

This was a great read. There's a paragraph in here that seems like it was written specifically for my sensibilities.

My brother's book is out now. Still waiting on my copy to arrive but to my knowledge there are no digressions into mascot attire or a ranking of the handsomeness of the characters. Even with those shortcomings, it's still something I'm excited to drive into when it arrives.

I think about this (made up) quote quite regularly.

9th goal contribution of the year for Spengler, who continues to be the best transition player in League One.

Beautiful pass from former Tormenta legend Ajmeer Spengler to set up the New York Cosmos opening goal of the night against Westchester.
