Bummer. Mort was one of the best.

Great guy..always one of the greatest reporters as of late..true loss for the NFL..will be missed

 

[seabowl]

He seriously had great knowledge and inside sources. Also just the way he presented showed he was a class guy. Remember, he was the one talking with Vince Tobin, where Tobin said “who in the hell is Mel Kiper anyway?”. Mort was great and will be missed. RIP.

One of those very few guys a lot of people didn't have a distaste for i think because he was genuine
R.I.P. one of the true greats
