You know Jim McKay passed away!

With all the accolades and hosannas for Tim Russert, the passing of Jim McKay of ABC sports was hardly remarked upon at all. McKay was a true professional who was always on top of the story. He gave you the facts without the Chris Berman bullshit that we have to listen to today. His coverage of the Olympics in Germany was unbelievable and he far outshone the douche bags of today like David Gregory and his ilk. Unlike Russert, he never tied to come off as something he wasn't. He didn't pretend to be an athlete like Russert pretended to be a regular guy. He just told the story and gave you the facts. He was a true professional who didn't interject himself into the game. He will be missed. He deserved a lot more attention.
