Just yesterday my wife and I surprised our children with a trip to the beach, the Outer Banks in North Carolina to be exact. Those who needed to know about me being out of the loop for two days, while driving, knew about it. One of those people was Dave Schofield, editor and my right-hand-man, and I joked with Dave on Thursday about how I’m sure some news will break when I’m driving south on I-95.
It did, but it wasn’t the news I wanted to see.
It wasn’t a T.J. Watt extension, it was the death of former player, and color commentator, Tunch Ilkin.
