This guy is a clown. His favorite sport to cover is girls basketball.

He is as solid as they come. A true professional in every sense of the word. Enjoy his no-nonsense approach!!

‘contemporaries’ would have been a better word than ‘colleagues’.

As I recall, Mark’s first training camp article had a “well, today’s the day the lies begin again in Foxborough” angle. I don’t think he’s spared the snark on Belichick either. I don’t deny that he puts the hours in but I’ve seen a least a little of the cynicism that his colleagues like to revel in.

I have to check his articles out, I had him confused with someone else and always skipped over his links because I thought it was one of the snarky, waaaahh Belichick gives us nothing guys.

Old school journalist…stories focus on the football side of things.

Reason people might not know his name is because he doesn’t pick fights, make snarky comments, and generally make himself the story.

Great reporter…he seems to have good access to everybody and usually a reader can tell when it’s a personal interview, as opposed to the scrum, and it seems like he gets a lot of those, though one can never be sure.
