Thomas George Leaving Denver for NFL Network
Less than two years after moving from the New York Times to the Denver Post, sports columnist Thomas George is changing jobs again, this time to become managing editor of the NFL Network, Scott Monserud, the Post's assistant managing editor for sports, said late Monday.
"I think he had a great following for his style, and he was a good complement to Mark Kiszla," another Post sports columnist, Monserud told Journal-isms.
When George was hired in November 2004, the Post wrote: "For 16 years, George, 44, has chronicled the NFL at The Times, in addition to covering events such as the NCAA men's and women's Final Fours, the NBA, Major League Baseball and college football."
"His wealth of experience and views about the world of sports will challenge and entertain readers. I am very pleased to have a journalist of his caliber writing a column for us,'' Editor Gregory L. Moore said at the time.
"It'll be a challenge to find a new one," Monserud said Monday of the columnist's slot. George's last day is to be a week from Tuesday.
NFL Network is the year-round television channel fully owned and operated by the National Football League.
On Sunday, George wrote that being injured in an auto accident taught Anthony Lynn, the Cowboys' running backs coach and a running back on Denver's two world champion teams, that, "Sometimes, I guess, we get a little full of ourselves."
