Mike Royko, Circa 1982

I was a fan of Chicago columnist Mike Royko from the time I started reading newspapers. I don't that know that I've run across very many bloggers who were fans of Royko, too. I don't know if it is because bloggers tend to be too young to remember Royko, if it was because of his politics (he was a Democrat, despite all of his columns on Mayor Daley), or if it is just because it has been so long since he passed away. If you are a fan, though, you may enjoy this video of Royko from 1982 which Eric Zorn points out at the Tribune blog Change of Subject.

By the way, he's talking softball in the video.
