I’d just like to say kudos to Bob McGinn of the MJS, for being recognized by Peter King of Sports Illustrated. Here’s what King wrote about McGinn:

I think few fan bases are better served by a beat writer than those in Packerdom by Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The other day, he told his readers how first-round pick Justin Harrell, the defensive tackle from Tennessee, was struggling mightily with his conditioning; how kicker David Rayner was 28 of 29 in kickoffs with competitor Mason Crosby so far in camp; how well players have adapted to camp, with no camp fights in the first nine practices; how free-agent defensive lineman Larry Birdline was embarrassingly fatigued in practice, so much so that McGinn wrote: “After that embarrassing episode, his career in Green Bay won’t last too long.” McGinn is an underrated giant in our business. I love reading him.

I’d have to agree with Peter King’s assessment of Bob McGinn. He’s one heck of a journalist, and I’ve always enjoyed reading his columns. It’s good to see one of our own from here in Milwaukee get recognized on the national level.
