Aside from occasional fan mail and Golden Quill awards, sportswriters rarely receive accolades, yet they were and often still are a prime conduit between athletes and fans. During the age when newspapers were the main source for news and opinions about sports, Pittsburgh’s top sportswriters wrote daily columns, sponsored major charities, and became household names. They were routinely elected president of the Baseball Writers Association of America and of the National Football Writers Association.2 A few eventually received Hall of Fame recognition for their meritorious service to sports, including playing a leading role in the integration of baseball, and one became famous for creating the Terrible Towel.3 Pittsburgh’s newspaper archives are filled with bylines of The Golden Age of Pittsburgh’s Sportswriters sportswriters who wove the stories that helped transform the city’s championship teams and athletes into legends.
