This is a nice bit of history ... or at least it seems to be, but it's behind a paywall! C'mon, you don't charge people for a piece of birthday cake at a party, do you?

Congrats, Tyson! Your ability to keep chasing the sportswriting dream and find these gem-lined career pathways is really amazing. Long after so many of us gave up on this profession, your perseverance is unique. Lookout is lucky to get you!

"He wants to defend, bleed and avoid Vegas" is some quality headline writing!

Great reporting and writing by my guy, @jwquick.bsky.social. The number of high level folks he interviewed is really impressive.

What article did you guys clip this from? Not cool to just lift it without a link or attribution.

This is a really fun story.

33, all but one or two for work, back when I did that kind of work.

Apropos of nothing, " ... And Our Come the Wolves" is a great album.

Hey NYT, surely you know not to use "exploded" this way. That's like headline writing 101, especially with the real war and violent rhetoric all over your other posts. Thank you.
