I was stunned to learn this.
He was an incredible writer and correspondent. He was the one who blew the top off the Steelers violating practice rules in the 70s and trying to keep it concealed.
After he was released from ESPN, he became a regular guest host on SiriusXM NFL Radio and did an amazing job there as well. You learned more about his train of thought by listening to his responses to callers and in interviewing guests from the NFL, and he really was excellent at it.
And of course that was the funniest commercial ESPN ever made. Kudos that he was willing to do it.
He will be missed. RIP John.
