Some great insight on Arch Manning from speaking with @SethWickersham. The young and famous QB has already won.

Is there a Pulitzer Prize for tweets?
The Spurs know how to TAKE the lead, they just don't know how to HOLD the lead. And that's really the most important part of the lead: the holding

There are a lot of *great* details in here. I think my favorite is that Andrew Berry talks regularly with Sam Presti, and one reason it was essential to get Jared Verse back in the deal is because of Presti’s advice about getting SGA back in the Paul George trade.

My friends at @ESPNFC have published a (more buoyant) excerpt from Legs Hearts Minds. I've tried to teach my son Sammy what my grandfather and mum taught me: that @BurnleyOfficial is the side we're on, and Turf Moor is our forever home.

There’s a reason the biggest names in sports over the past few decades have let Greg into their worlds. It’s not just that he’s trustworthy, it’s that they learn something essential and true about themselves when they read his stories. That will continue wherever Greg lands next.

When I was a kid, all I wanted to do was write cover stories for Sports Illustrated. I loved every day I got to do that — for more than 12 years. I’m part of the layoffs today. Now I’m standing on the side of the highway, holding a cardboard sign. It says: WILL WRITE FOR FOOD

I’ve know Mike since 1999, but I’ve enjoyed the wit, heart, ambition and elegance of his writing even longer. He has made us laugh, think, cry, and boil, but most of all, he’s made us smarter consumers of sports — and he will continue to do so wherever he goes next.

My friends at @TheAtlantic were kind enough to publish an excerpt from my memoir LEGS HEARTS MINDS. Perhaps you wish to read it, or preorder my book from your local bookstore. I hope it helps someone learn from my mistakes and get and feel better.

It feels cosmically unfair to be part of a best books award, with only one winner. Books are too hard to conceive and research and organize and write and revise to judge that way. It’s so cool to join fellow authors as finalists for the inaugural Dan Jenkins Medal for books.

This piece on Coach Kerr from Wright Thompson is extraordinary. Everyone who is interested in good writing, good craft, or good coaching should read it and savor it. My god is it good.

Wright Thompson spent a ton of time around Steve Kerr this season and dropped this story today. Gives plenty of insight into Kerr’s choice to return to the Warriors after agonizing over the decision for months.
