My go-to line for the past 30 years when designing a sports section cover: "We should be good to go unless Pete Rose dies." Well ... Pete's death was just announced. For those working the desk tonight, time to rebuild that cover. #RIPpeterose

A little bit of personal news ... Al was the athletic link in my extended family, married to my mom's sister. My wife and I had the chance to visit with him and Vicki last fall, and he had plenty of good stories to tell. He will be missed ... and well-remembered.

A huge THANK YOU to Coach Silm for leading the Wildcat Football Program the past 3 seasons! We wish him the best in his future endeavors!
