I posted earlier in the year about Joe Posnanski, my favourite writer. I really think his columns help prove that sports journalism isn't just reporting scores and cliches but its about great writing and about inspiring people through the story.
This is a link to his latest column on the Sports Illustrated website. It is about Los Angeles Dodgers play by play announcer Vin Scully.
Scully is quite possibly, although it would be argued by hockey fans in Canada, the most famous and legendary sports broadcaster of all time.
The column, in my opinion, is perfect.
