because Tim Russert has died, a crushing loss to journalism in the United States.

My Sunday mornings will never be the same. I can't believe I'll turn on Meet the Press tomorrow and not hear his booming voice saying "our issues this morning.." The man I've watched cover every major news item and election in my adult life. The man who got me through one of the worst nights of my life, the 2000 election, with a mere white board.

King of the gotcha, he could also be extremely funny:

He could put together shows combining the best guests, from James Carville and Mary Matalin to Andrew Sullivan and Christopher Hitchens. I could schedule my whole day around watching shows such as these.

A Springsteen fan, moderator of presidential debates (including for the candidacy of Red Sox Nation), and family man...

I'll miss you , Tim. Go Bills

and I'm not sure I'm fine.

I just received this email from a friend of mine:

Subject: This is why you need to join Facebook.

This an old picture that you sent me, but I got a scanner so watch out. I'm going to post pictures of you from the 80's and you will want to come defend yourself.

oh, this is SO not good.

  Red and I are officially throwing our hats in the ring as co-governors of the Massachusetts branch of Red Sox Nation. I have no idea what that really means, other than we might get to rub elbows with Remdawg, carry DO's bags to his car, or make sure there
