Damn. He was only 68? He seemed old when I was a jit watching him on the Sports Reporters. His “Season on the Brink” was the beginnings of my dislike for Bobby Knight.

RIP

Wow. Great journalist and consummate professional. RIP.

 

[mastermind]

Wow, RIP

I did not really like the topics he covered and he became an angry old white guy the last decade, but he was a force for WaPo.

Sad to hear it. At the peak of my sports radio listening, I vividly recall him filling in for Jim Rome.
