    I used to think the local sports columnist wrote a pretty stylish weekly notes column, and then later I realized he stole his entire formula from Blackie Sherrod. And even then, it paled in comparison. RIP, sir.

    I grew up near Dallas and was blessed to read Blackie for many years. -30- to one of the all-time greats.

    Always looked forward to that Sunday column and which B-list celebrity of the past made the opening paragraph: "Scattershooting while wondering whatever happened to Edgar Buchanan."
