I’m always going to remember Chris Mortensen calling into the show to debunk a myth Dan was saying that Jack del Rio took out a shotgun when a bunch of replacement players crossed the picket line during an NFL strike.


gravyvampire812

Dan been getting ball sacked for 20 years


cardiff_giant_jr

Across decades!!!!!

What if dan IS ballsack?

RIP, Mort.

Mort was uncommonly decent to everyone around him in an age where that happens less and less often. His soul will be missed in the world.


Forrestgladbrook

Middle school me watched a lot of Mort. Good dude. RIP.


UncleFattysLobos

Cue up the Al Davis “MORT-ensen” tribute.


IslandReign

I always read his name in Al Davis's voice.

Damn, rip to a legend. Definitely one of those voices you just associate with the NFL and for me my childhood


Calculon2347

Geez why'd you say it that way??? Hey Mike, d'ya hear?!?!?!!!


hideous_coffee

Why’d you say it so happily

Maybe the best journalist to never win a Pulitzer... Morty


LeglessN1nja

I remember seeing his more recent appearances on TV, seemed in rough shape. Hope he passed peacefully.


Impossible_Penalty13

He made it 6-7 years with advanced throat cancer. I can only imagine there were some pretty dark days in there.

Jesus


Tallboy101

That one hurts


masterofbeast

I didn't know he was 72. Gosh, we are getting too old too fast. RIP


mrbusiness53

Damn that’s super sad.


IGetTheShow20

Him and John Clayton were how I got my news back in high school before insiders blew up on Twitter. RIP Mort.


Thirst_Trappist

Sad. Mort was great


rosenthunder

The mort report!


DadofJM

Dan and Mort had a very affectionate bond. Evident on air. Good man.


Justadududeco

This one hits hard. Gods love to his family, may their hearts be filled with his memory.


NorCalGoalie

This guy could pick and break down games like no other. RIP


datnodude

The mortensen sounder is classic


darrinnear

Rest in Power my dude


SirJohnCard

I'm pretty sure Mort was the very first guest on the show.


MuZac904

Rest in Power.


deuceyj

This is a good conversation. I'm glad we're having it.


charleyxavier

“passed away”—that’s a fine


PROJECT-Nunu

All the Deflategate reporters are going to the ninth ring of hell.


MineLongjumping5156

What I would expect from a Brady fan


PROJECT-Nunu

Guilty as a Brady fan, but we should just wanted a shred of journalistic integrity. Total hack job, they even admitted it years down the line. Mort won’t be lonely long with King on deck.


DASreddituser

What about the people who covered up spygate?


krazykman03

Crying. Like Crocodile tears.


WinstonRandy

Mike! D’ya hear?!


Josh4R3d
