I’m not sure why, but I lost track of Norman Chad’s work of late. Thankfully, I found his latest column Monday and it made me realize what I had been missing.

For those of you who don’t know, Chad is a very entertaining sports media critic. Well, you probably won’t think he’s very entertaining if you are one of his targets. Such as Jim Gray (see below).

OK, you can read the rest. Well worth it.
