The Return of TMQ??
Gregg Easterbrook, author of "Tuesday Morning Quarterback" returned to ESPN.com with a splash today. At 4:48 his article Messing Up Your Daggone Top 10 was the lead story on the front page of ESPN.com.
Two-and-a-half years ago Easterbrook was my second favorite Page 2 writer, with his fall recaps of NFL weekends. Then he was fired for some comments he made about Jewish film producers, even though he didn't write the piece for ESPN. I'm not convinced Easterbrook is an anti-Semite, but his comments offended some and forced ESPN to react. Now, it seems, he may be brought back into the fold.
I think he's served his time and should be re-hired. I look forward to Tuesdays in September.
