Peter King Thread No. 57

Peter King was incredibly tone deaf. I remember he was on a preseason tour in a camper with a couple of younger SI writers. He gleefully wrote about telling one of them to drive down the bike lane to avoid a traffic jam. When his readers called him out, he pulled an Urkel. It wasn't the only time readers had to tell him how stupidly he acted.

He wasn't a very good writer.

Finally, he was so far up the asses of the people he covered, it was obvious to anyone who read him.

 

Back when I had a mid-2000s Android "smart"phone and rode the bus to work, I always looked forward to Mondays because MMQB was always long enough to cover waiting at the stop, the entire bus ride to work, and part of the bus ride home.

 

Actual final column:

FMIA Finale: Onward

 

After reading (most of) that, Ragu gets a pass.

 

The tributes from his daughters were sweet.
