Dave George

Retried in April 2018 after 40 years as sports columnist at Palm Beach Post. No time to type more. Early-bird dinner hour starts soon.

PB Post's Jason Lieser is off to cover the #Blackhawks in Chicago. My good friend has a bright future in this biz or any other he chooses.

[Jason Lieser @JasonLieser]

Thank you.

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Sorry I missed your farewell cake ceremony, Mateo, but was out of town. Congrats on landing your dream job. It's been fun watching you grow in the biz. Folks at PB Post will miss your numbers and we'll all miss your creativity. I'll be watching for you on the interwebs. https://t.co/ptQk2huxYj

[Matt Porter @mattyports]

Today’s going-away cake session at the @pbpost was great because I got to tell everyone there how much I loved working there, how proud I am of the work we did, and how thankful I am for the friends I made.

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Returned from trip to find a terrific retirement gift from #Dolphins. I'm gone but they keep on giving. So grateful.

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Hey, Mike, you travel more than anybody so I'm especially glad to hear that you have your own one-in-a-million. Couldn't do it without them. https://t.co/3UxqU33d8J

[MikeInglisHEAT @MikeInglisHEAT]

Truer words have not been spoken Dave. A strong woman in this crazy business of media/broadcasting & athletics we’re in is worth her weight in gold to all of the family. I too am one of the lucky ones. https://t.co/UBZhFl8hgq

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Also deep thanks to #Dolphins communications staff for sending a beautiful jewelry gift to my wife on the occasion of my retirement. In any long career that involves heavy travel it's the spouse who is the real hero for keeping it all running smoothly at home. Classy move, Fins.

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

That ball is not deflated. Just my poor Twitter skills getting in the way of a sincere thanks to #Dolphins for a sweet retirement gift.

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Thanks, boss, for the constant encouragement and support. Your staff is top notch. Keep that family together and all will be well. https://t.co/7rHSNnWTfw

Thanks, Darin. Glad to hear you're still in the biz. Tampa is a great sports town. Plenty to keep you busy. https://t.co/8sC5UfLB6f

[Darin @DarinSports]

@Dave_GeorgePBP Congratulations Dave from a long-ago Palm Beach Post UM correspondent! I always enjoyed working with you and your columns will be missed!

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Wow, I used to think I was a big deal because Taye Daggs follows me on Twitter and now this, a really smart math and physics wizard who does the really nice thing of showing how to find all 20 of those columns in one easy click. Many thanks, New Leibniz. https://t.co/WIIx9yqyHI

I'm betting you read that thing on the Post's website, Jonathan. Plenty of great content to come right there, from some hard-working and talented friends of mine. And thanks for looking for me there even when it took a little searching. https://t.co/ZlyWXaC0rs

[Jonathan Wasserman @jhwass]

@ChristyChirinos @mattyports @Dave_GeorgePBP A true professional. Fantastic final column

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

To Mamachelle and Team Moms everywhere I say thank you for bringing all those juice boxes and orange slices to practice for the boys. I don't know for certain if that description fits you, but it sure feels like it. And thanks for the overly kind words. https://t.co/AoTfm6HFtK

Best of luck to @Dave_GeorgePBP on his retirement. Always the consummate pro and by far the most pleasant columnist I have worked with.

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Thanks, Jess. Seems like you're pretty good at spreading the good vibes yourself. Can't ever have too much of that. https://t.co/AF19js0mlO

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Thanks, Steve, for taking the time to write such a nice note, and I especially liked the little photos you chose of a golfer and a palm tree. Thinking you might be onto something there, since I'm usually the golfer whose ball smacks the palm tree dead on. https://t.co/O2vxnYPn6u

[Steve Lewis @Steve391]

@Dave_GeorgePBP enjoyed your last article in @pbpost today as I have for 14 years as a snowbird from Albany NY. Great job and enjoy your retirement 🏌🏾‍♂️🌴

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Thanks, Jim. I'm one of the few people who knows how old you actually are and how long you've been at the paper, because you sure don't look it. https://t.co/aY2hxgFPLC

[Jim Coleman @JimColeman11]

Today, the @pbpost said good-bye to a legend - columnist @Dave_GeorgePBP. I had the pleasure working with Dave in sports. As Al McGuire used to say, he was 'first-class' all the way. @JasonLieser summed it up best here in this magnificent tribute... https://t.co/eR4KSvQEid

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Thanks, Ronen, and I'm glad we're not talking about buried treasure. Not just yet. https://t.co/cqHQV0zsDH

[Ronen Seliger @nensta3]

@Manny_Navarro @Dave_GeorgePBP This is why the @MiamiHEAT is one of the classiest franchises ever!! @Dave_GeorgePBP you’re a South Florida Sports treasure! Enjoy your much deserved retirement!

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]

Appreciate that, Phil. Anything good that's ever happened to me in this biz has been in concert with the good people at the Post, and you were one of them. https://t.co/o9yUb0hVd4

[Phil Galewitz @philgalewitz]

..@Dave_GeorgePBP I've been a huge fan of your work since I moved to Palm Beach in 1995 to work at the @pbpost. Your insights were always spot on and you made reading the paper fun-- whether my teams won or lost. Congrats on an amazing run and best wishes on your next chapter.

[Dave George @Dave_GeorgePBP]
