I was going to post about something that I saw last night on TV…then I went to ESPN. On Monday, Ralph Wiley, a sportswriter for ESPN passed from heart failure. Ray Charles will get his due…but Ralph will only get his due in the sports world. So I feel as if I owe you one…you made me think sometimes more than I wanted too. ‘Preciate it.
Ralph Wiley was one of the best sportswriters ESPN had. In fact, with the exception of Bill Simmons, I can’t think of anybody elses columns I just HAVE to read. With that said, ESPN’s writers paid a fitting tribute to him by allowing the rest of the staff to write about him. You will be missed…
ESPN and the world truly lost a great voice.
