    Good article in Grantland about the demise of the New York Times sports column.

    I wonder with shrinking news budgets if this will not become the fate of the general sports columns at more newspapers.

    Putting Robert Lipsyte ahead of Red Smith is like saying, "The greatest Celtics big men ever: Kevin McHale and Bill Russell."
