Jack was a sports writer, a deft columnist and a booster of San Diego sports. He wanted my hometown in the big leagues and was instrumental in pulling it in that direction. He transformed the city for the better. He loved his Labrador “Abe” too — a non-sports point of connection. — PolitiTweet.org

@MajorCBS @Padres Certainly the last of its kind in one respect. Could you ever imagine a stadium named for a sportswriter EVER again?
