[스크렙] Woody Paige’s final Denver Post column: Looking back at 35 years

 

문학 작품이나 작가가, 넌지시 그리고 그야말로 양념처럼, 종종 언급되기도 하는

그런 특이한 스포츠 칼럼을 읽는 재미가, 내 기억에 남은 Woody Paige 칼럼의

가장 인상적인 특징이다. 스포츠 칼럼이 다 그렇듯 늘 유모러스했던 건 물론이다.

Woody Paige’s final Denver Post column: Looking back at 35 years

(Woody Paige, Denver Post, 7/31/12016)

"I’ve attempted to provoke readers to thought. A 16th-century

philosopher first said: “If two people agree, one is unnecessary.’’

I’ve always been honest with my opinions. I hope I’ve

entertained and informed."

"My heroes are Kurt Vonnegut, Ernest Hemingway,

Geoffrey Chaucer, Dan Jenkins, Jim Murray and Winston Churchill.

I will continue to write until the moment I die. I’m sad not to be

writing for The Denver Post, but I’m happy I will be writing for

the Colorado Springs Gazette..."
