fellows how's everybody good morning how are you well Good morning.

John.

How are you?

Fine.

You know, it's funny.

I don't want to start off the show on a sort of a morbid note, but you know, it's sad to see that

Mort passed away.

He had only had him on the show a couple times, but everybody, well I was struck by how everybody said what a great guy he was. He was just like the nicest guy. Do you have any like Mortenson anecdotes or thoughts or? Yeah, I didn't know Chris well. You know he was a football guy the last 30 years of his career and I don't cover that much football but I would see him in Baltimore and occasionally on the road.

I knew him when he was a newspaper guy first in Atlanta and then with the national.

And he was a victim. first in Atlanta and then with the national.

And he was a very good reporter now.

When he went to ESPN, and again, you're right, Morten, never met a nicer guy than Mort,

he'd gone through some personal issues. He became very

religious afterwards, but always a good guy, always a smile on his face when he saw him.

But ESPN, as you know, is very big on anonymous sources.

They'll report almost anything.
