    Aw man. Northeast Iowa lost an icon. Well known throughout not only Waterloo and Cedar Falls, but probably the entire state. RIP.

    Courier sports writer Jim Sullivan passes away

    Shit. Worked with him in passing about a million years ago, and he was a good man, helping me out when he had no reason to. A true professional.

    Damn. Literally died at his desk after finishing off the sports section. Horrible news.

    Pretty sure I crossed paths with him and his colleagues years ago at a playoff game in the UNI-Dome. RIP to a class act.
