Happy Birthday, Wright Thompson! May your day be filled with more excitement than a Saturday night in New Orleans and fewer deadlines than an ESPN cover story. From Kansas City Star to Times-Picayune, you've tackled sports journalism like Patrick Mahomes tackles defenses—effortlessly brilliant.Your storytelling has taken us from bourbon-soaked Kentucky derbies to the soulful streets of Mississippi; each piece as timeless as it is captivating. Here's hoping this year brings you even greater adventures (and perhaps another reason for readers everywhere to procrastinate at work). Cheers—to many more years of turning ordinary moments into extraordinary narratives!
