    and he can't write, and he can't read.


    And if he could run the 40 in under 5 minutes, Nick Saban would be having dinner at his house tonight.

    The irony, one would think, is that deep down inside, Dr. Z hates Peter King.

    I always feel the need to link to this KSK gem whenever Dr. Z's name gets brought up. Hope he returns soon.

    I always thought Will should have gotten Dr. Z to write on the sly for Deadspin. He was always too smart and well-written for SI. Z, Hunter Thompson, Dick Schaap...the greats of the last generation of print journalists (not just sportswriters) are leaving us. And we're getting the shitty end of the stick. I'm going to curl up with my copy of the Thinking Man's Guide this weekend and pray like Hell for a miracle.

    @ghostsoftheSCupcountry: while not a writer by trade, I felt the same way when I heard Dom DiMaggio had passed. Great book, if you're looking for a summer read.


    P.S. You forgot Halberstam, but that's ok. :)

    I have no joke here. It's very sad to see what SI has become.


    Where is the good longform sports journalism now, commenters? Does it still exist? I mean actual journalism and reporting, not just good writing. It's out there. Joe Posnanski? Henry Abbott?

    That is unfortunate.


    Dr. Z get better. Then tell SI they can't fire you because you're the man.
