First I noticed him in the Detroit Free Press, then he had his own local radio shows, then he started showing up on ESPN, then he started writing his bestsellers, etc.<BR/><BR/>It's been so long since I've seen his earlier work I almost shouldn't be commenting, but I do have the perception that the overall quality in just about anything he does has really declined over the years. And I'm saying this as someone who used to be a real fan of his and couldn't wait to read his columns. With his sports columns, I notice the quality decline in both content and writing style. He has just spread himself too thin and seems to be incapable of writing or saying anything really interesting anymore. What he <I>has</I> done is found his niche market and now has a loyal cadre of fans who lap up everything he says or does.Citizen Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12481323943813270047noreply@blogger.com
