Schwab was a big part of growing up. Even helped my family win a cooler at Disneys Millionaire show back at the first ESPN the Weekend. Truly brilliant and kind man

[Keith Olbermann @KeithOlbermann]

There is a chorus of grief today from those of us who work, or worked, at ESPN

Howie Schwab was an unlikely on-air cult figure but long before then he was one of those who truly built the place: diligent, professional, and more importantly endlessly friendly and supportive to everybody (including the new, lost, anchor in from LA, or the prodigal anchor returning 20 years later)

Simply, ESPN never rises to the heights it did, nor exists today, without him. He died this morning and the memorials and "#RIPs" are insufficient - but they'll have to do.

And as the creator of the research department he'd have been satisfied: the description of his impact, and of the uniform grief at his loss, were both succinct and accurate.

Thank you, Howie.

The colts had no answer for the Pats.

[Adam Bogdan @PatriotsInform]

Man, imagine if Mahomes got suspended for four games for potentially knowing that cold air deflates footballs slightly. Guy would be inconsolable.

With todays rules? Give me Chad and Randy on the outside and we’re putting up 35 next week.

Bill Burr to the Red Sox broadcast booth full time please.

[Ben Volin @BenVolin]

NESN needs to get Bill Burr as a regular analyst on the Red Sox broadcasts. Just delightful

[Wilbur @SportsLaws]

@tmworldwideinc Ahhh tack tack! Forgot that!

[Wilbur @SportsLaws]

@Waviehall Same! Wish you all the luck and now I’ll for sure have to wear a shamrock if I’m heading to Pinewood, ha!

@tmworldwideinc 😶‍🌫️

[Wilbur @SportsLaws]

@Waviehall Boston! Literal across the pond. Where’s your friend?

[Wilbur @SportsLaws]

@AlexHorne Actually in the same situation and the anxiety is crazy! Mind if I ask similar?

[Wilbur @SportsLaws]

@Bejuggled I picked a prime day to fly south! If anyone says anything about defrosting delays: just send me outside. I’ll be heated enough to defrost anything

[Wilbur @SportsLaws]

Greatest. No qualifiers

[Tom Brady @TomBrady]

Truly grateful on this day. Thank you 🙏🏻❤️

The referee will pay the price for that mess by having to answer questions from one reporter on it, with everyone involved then forbidden from ever talking about it again.
