[QUOTE="Shake Tiller, post: 2796334, member: 73216"] The [I]Fort Worth Press[/I] had a fabulous set of sports writers, perhaps the best in the country at the time. Jerre Todd, Blackie Sherrod, Dan Jenkins, Gary Cartwright and Bud Shrake. [I]The[/I] [I]Press[/I], a Scripps-Howard newspaper, was fun and fearless. Mack Williams, the City Editor, was also a star -- but on the city-side. When I was in journalism school at TCU, I was an intern at [I]The Press[/I] and got to work in the shadow of those guys. They were friends and kind and tolerant. After deadline the fun continued. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't afford many of those happy Happy Hours which occurred almost daily. I learned a lot and had a wonderful time, got "printer's ink" on my hands and it never came off. [/QUOTE]
