Mike Fine also was quoted frequently in Jack McCallum’s book on the ‘91 Celtics, Unfinished Business. Maybe he hasn’t been a really visible local writer but he has been always been an astute, reliable reviewer of the C’s. Definite approve.

Bird liked Fine because he heard he was too cheap to buy bags for his fallen leaves. He would just load up the back of his truck and “redistribute” them as he drove around.

Fine is a solid veteran talent who knows his stuff. A classic writer from the old school who plays it straight and reports the facts. Love to see him add depth to the globes or heralds coverage. Should e scooped up by a bigger entity!

The Ledger has a number of good sportswriters who don’t get nearly the credit they deserve, on pro sports and preps. Fine is one of them — straight shooter, solid writer. Same goes for Eric McHugh, who does a great job on the Patritos beat.

Too bad Gatehouse is handcuffing those writers with their cost-cutting ways.

Approve of Fine. Disapprove of the Ledger’s owners.

I was hoping for guys like Mike Mutnansky, and Jon Rish to be spotlighted.

Hopefully they’ll be spotlighted in this section.

Captain Dunk,
Exactly. Good way to put it. All the ‘who?’s were getting irritating. If they don’t know the person, people should just wait until a familiar writer/reporter/person is posted, then vote.
