SI’s Where Are They Now? - Gary Smith

I wish Gary Smith had written this piece on Gary Smith.

Where Are They Now: Gary Smith - Sports Illustrated

That was a beautiful piece. Exceptionally written, good quotes, intriguing insight.
It made me want to explore Victory Journal, the place where it was first published.

Gary Smith, ever the best of us.

He looks great. And happy.

One of a handful I always considered a must read - regardless of the subject

SI should put all his stories in one book and sell it. Print, digital, chiseled on stone, scratched on a car hood with a knife, whatever. I'd buy it.

If they already have and I missed it, anyone with a link please post.

I know they have the Vault but I don't want to subscribe to yet another thing I barely have time to read. It might be worth it just for Smith's stories, though, sort of like subscribing to the LA Times for the food stoies by the late Jonathan Gold.
