Ok here is my John Feinstein thread. It's gonna be long.

I saw someone praise him yesterday by saying he never made it about himself, which struck me as just about exactly wrong. He ALWAYS made it about himself. It's who he was, at least as long as I knew him That's why he would pursue his crusades -- like against the NCAA's "corporate champions" and "student-athletes" -- in packed rooms, with everyone watching. Why he would blow past helpless security guards to talk to his famous friends.
