Dan Jenkins

Sports writer and novelist Dan Jenkins has passed away at age 90. How much is was revered in the sports writing community can be viewed with just a small sample of the many who have paid their respects.

SI pays their respects

ESPN pays their respects.

The Ringer pays their respects.

And of course his daughter, columnist Sally has the best of all.

Time to buy another copy of Semi-Tough or maybe Dead Solid Perfect. RIP Mr. Jenkins.
