Mike Lupica, once considered (by some) as one of the best sportswriters in the country, is a shell of a poor man's version of his former self.
All he can do at this point is string together basic statements of fact. He puts maybe four or five of these bland sentences together, then hits "enter" a couple of times and starts a new paragraph. Any person reading his column could do his job at this point.
Lupica's latest Daily News column has a nice headline - "Coming Through In October Is Not A Yankee Tradition This Decade" - but it's a brutal (yet fascinating) read.
