SMART, TOUGH, DEPENDABLE

He was arguably the first big,influential internet voice for the NFL outside USA.

He was not a TV/radio natural but his long form column worked better with international audiences than the more standard US sports media click bait material. His eclectic content, willingness to digress and self deprecating style certainly resonated with Brits even if his hokey folksiness was a bit strange to us at first.

The only time I missed his Monday column was when I was in intensive care in hospital for 8 weeks. I now need a new fix to accompany my Monday breakfast coffee.
If you live your life as a pessimist you never really live your life at all.
