I stand corrected.
I stand corrected.
Actually, most of them were. Just not the important ones.
Talk about someone who really gets it. Thanks so much.
Definitely not always right, but my guess is I’m right more than the guy who was so upset with the piece, Robert.
Claim them as your own. Thanks for letting me know. Much obliged.
Hardly perfect, but I’m thrilled that you thought so. Thanks.
Thanks for letting me know, man. Thank you.
The feeling is mutual, Dan. You’re one of my favorites.
All the time. Just have to pay for it.
What am I supposed to say? I picked Lomachenko to win for the reasons that he did win. Seeing the fighters from ringside, the size difference was even more pronounced than I’d expected. Lomachenko is a very good fighter, who fought a highly effective and intelligent fight.
First, thanks for thinking to send the piece to your ten closest friends. That’s a real vote of confidence, and it’s much appreciated. I actually was very impressed with Lomachenko, by the way. I believe he falls short of being the all-time great he’s now being pushed as, but the guy is awfully good.

While you may well be right about some of my blind spots (although I have no doubts about…
Thanks a thousand times, Hurk. Really appreciate your saying so.
Really appreciate your saying so. Thank you. People have been very generous with this piece (something that’s not always the case with my work).
Thanks for reading the piece. I’m really happy to hear that you’ll look for more.
Morgan, I feel like the one thing that actually happened was something I would never have imagined.
We learn something new every day, I guess.
I’m really pleased that the piece held your attention, Rob. Thanks for reading.
