Woody Paige
A couple of weeks ago, I read about the whole Woody Paige incident via Romenesko's site. Paige was probably a little over the top, but he didn't write anything about Salt Lake City that the majority of NBA players wouldn't back up in a heartbeat (every team having to endure at least one roadtrip to play the Jazz each year).
Hell, I emailed the guy and told him if, gawd forbid, Houston somehow manages to win the 2012 summer games and he comes here to cover them, I want to buy him a Shiner Bock. To get him up to speed on the Greater Houston Partnership, potholes, and other charming aspects of the city. He thanked me for my comment. :)
