RIP Jim

Very sad news.
Jim Kelly was one of my fav sports columnists in The Buffalo News.

I loved his work on thefan590. He was so passionate and confrontational.
Heard him last week on McCown talking about Colin Campbells' problems.
He was from the old school and a million times more interesting to listen to than these boring, vacuous, shallow, politically correct, media weasel fakers who dominate sports broadcasting these days.

Here's his last column, filed a few hours before he died.

Wow...didn't even know he was sick. Usually late stages involve serious doses of morphine. How he worked so long is unbelievable.

RIP
