Leitura bíblica do dia: Romanos 16:3-16 Plano de leitura anual: Eclesiastes 10-12; Gálatas 1; Como escritor esportivo, Dave Kindred cobriu centenas de eventos esportivos e campeonatos, e escreveu uma biografia de Muhammad Ali. Aborrecido e já aposentado, passou a assistir aos jogos de basquete feminino da escola local e escrever matérias on-line sobre cada jogo. Depois que a sua mãe e seu neto morreram e sua esposa sofreu um derrame, Kindred percebeu que a equipe, sobre a qual escrevia, dava-lhe um senso de pertença: um precisava do outro. Ele afirmou: “Esta equipe me salvou. Minha vida estava triste, e elas foram o meu lume”. Como um lendário jornalista passa a depender de um grupo de adolescentes? Da mesma forma, Paulo se amparou na comunhão daqueles que conheceu em suas jornadas missionárias. Você notou todas as pessoas que Paulo cumprimentou quando ele encerrou sua carta? (Romanos 16:3-15). Saúdem “Andrônico e a Júnias”, escreveu ele, “meus compatriotas judeus que estiveram comigo na prisão” (v.7). “Saúdem Amplíato, meu querido amigo no Senhor” (v.8). Ele menciona mais de 25 pessoas no total, a maioria das quais não são mencionadas nas Escrituras novamente. Mas Paulo precisava delas. Qual é a sua comunidade? O melhor lugar para começar é sua igreja local. Há alguém cuja vida tenha se tornado sombria? À medida que Deus o conduz, reflita a luz de Jesus. Talvez, alguém lhe retribuirá esse favor.

We're saluting Muhammad Ali on his 82nd birthday with a compilation of stories told on Press Box Access by sportswriters who crossed paths with The Greatest. Dave Kindred, Jerry Izenberg and other veteran scribes share their personal memories of Ali going as far back as 1960. They put us ringside at Ali's greatest fights such as “The Rumble in the Jungle” and “The Thrilla in Manila.” They take us on trains, into hotel rooms, and onto the banks of Africa's Congo River. We even go to the circus with the heavyweight champ and world-renowned activist and humanitarian. Enjoy our treasure trove of Ali tales. Dave Kindred, on my Mount Rushmore of sportswriters, covered 17 of Ali's fights, dating back to when he wrote for The Courier-Journal in the champ's hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. Jerry Izenberg, who began his amazing journalism career in 1951, covered more of Ali's fights than any sportswriter, including epic bouts with Joe Frazier and George Foreman that live on in boxing history. Tom Archdeacon has covered more than 200 fights as a columnist and honored boxing writer in Ohio and Florida, and he not only sat ringside at Ali's final three bouts but also went to the circus with him. Tim Smith covered the fight game for many years at The New York Times, New York Daily News, and Cincinnati Enquirer, and he now works for Haymon Sports, a boxing management company. Thom Loverro, sports columnist at The Washington Times and an honored boxing writer, first met Ali as a young reporter visiting training camp in the late 1970s. Vito Stellino is best known as a longtime NFL writer, but he was ringside at Madison Square Garden in 1971 as a reporter covering the legendary Ali-Frazier I. Mary Schmitt Boyer puts us in Atlanta, Georgia on the night when Ali lit the Olympic torch, providing her a most treasured memory of the many Olympics that she covered. George Diaz had encounters with Ali as a longtime Florida boxing writer, and he's also the ghostwriter of legendary fighter Roberto Duran's autobiography, “I Am Duran.” Learn more about your ad choices.

The legendary sports journalist writes about the team that changed his life: the Morton High School Lady Potters basketball team. Dave Kindred has covered dozens of Super Bowls and written about stars like Muhammad Ali, Tiger Woods, and Michael Jordan. But a high-school girls basketball team-the Lady Potters of Morton, Illinois-stands apart from the rest. In this moving and intimate story, Kindred writes about his rise to professional success and the changes that brought him back to his hometown late in life. As he dealt with personal hardship, his urge to write sustained him. For years, he has recapped the games of the Lady Potters, including their many runs to state championships. He attended game after game, sitting in the stands and making notes, paid nothing but Milk Duds. And the team and their community were there for him as he lost a grandson to addiction and his wife to long-term illness. Tender and honest, Kindred's story reminds readers what sports are really about. He trades in the exhausting spectacle of Super Bowl Sunday for the joy of togetherness, the fire of competition, and the inexhaustible hope for victory tomorrow.

Dave Kindred, award-winning sportswriter and author, joins the show to discuss his new book, My Home Team: A Sportswriter's Life and the Redemptive Power of Small-Town Girls Basketball. Kindred's professional resume is nothing short of incredible, having covered Muhammad Ali, Pete Rose, Michael Jordan, Martina Navratilova, Tiger Woods and many more athletes firsthand, as well as dozens of Super Bowls, the Olympics, and memorable events such as Game 6 of the 1975 World Series (aka the "Carlton Fisk home run game"). Kindred details parts of those sports endeavors in "Act 1" of his book, though Act 2--covering a local high school girls basketball team (the Lady Potters of Morton, IL) the past 13 years, and what that has meant to him through a number of personal challenges and tragedies--is a core part (perhaps even the focal point) of the book as well. Mike Steib--CEO of Artsy (the largest online marketplace for buying & selling art)--checks in regarding his new podcast, Office Hours with Mike Steib. The podcast features key Chief Executives to answer questions about leadership, career and life. He incorporates listener phone call questions in addition to his own, picking the brains of (thus far) Tommy Hilfiger and Eric Adams (Mayor of NYC). Steib was formerly CEO of XO Group Inc (parent company of the wedding site The Knot), has worked for Google & NBC Universal, and is author of The Career Manifesto. He received a BA in Economics and a BA in International Relations from the University of Penn.

Sports columnist Dave Kindred talks about the enduring influence of small-town Midwestern values, the impact of a childhood gift, the memorable day he shared a bed with Muhammad Ali, and the late-in-life assignment that has given him purpose and fulfillment.
November 22, 1965. In downtown Las Vegas, thousands of fans come inside from a rare rainstorm to watch a boxing match featuring young superstar Muhammad Ali. But the lopsided crowd isn't cheering for Ali; it's backing two-time heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson. The two men have come to symbolize more than boxing, but an entire societal struggle.Today, why was Muhammad Ali—formerly Cassius Clay—such a polarizing figure across America? How did this boxing match embody an internal struggle within the Civil Rights movement? And how did it serve as a key stepping stone in Ali's evolution into one of the era's most iconic activist voices?Special thanks to our guests: Dr. Gerald Early, professor of English and African American Studies at Washington University in St Louis; Dr. Todd Boyd, professor at the University of Southern California and chair for study of race and popular culture; Jonathan Eig, author of the biography “Ali: A Life”; W-K Stratton, author of the biography “Floyd Patterson”; and Dave Kindred, an American sportswriter known for his coverage of Muhammad Ali. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In his hall-of-fame career as a sportswriter Dave Kindred covered hundreds of major sporting events and championships and wrote a biography of Muhammad Ali. Growing bored in retirement, he started attending girls’ basketball games at a local school. Soon he began writing stories about each game and posting them online. And when Dave’s mother and grandson died and his wife suffered a debilitating stroke, he realized the team he’d been covering provided him with a sense of community and purpose. He needed them as much as they needed him. Kindred said, “This team saved me. My life had turned dark . . . [and] they were light.” How does a legendary journalist come to depend on a community of teenagers? The same way a legendary apostle leaned on the fellowship of those he met on his missionary journeys. Did you notice all the people Paul greeted as he closed his letter? (Romans 16:7–11). “Greet Andronicus and Junia,” he wrote, “my fellow Jews who have been in prison with me” (v. 7). “Greet Ampliatus, my dear friend in the Lord” (v. 8). More than twenty-five people in all, most of whom are not mentioned in Scripture again. But Paul needed them. Who’s in your community? The best place to begin is with your local church. Anyone there whose life has turned dark? As God leads, you can be a light that points them to Jesus. Someday they may return the favor.
Few sportswriters can match the lyrical and insightful work of Dave Kindred. His aim has always been to take readers with him, and make them feel what he felt. Dave does this for listeners in this episode as he recalls first meeting Muhammad Ali in 1966, covering 17 of his fights, and agreeing to a strange request from The Greatest in one of their 300-plus interviews. There was the time Kentucky coach Adolph Rupp called Kindred a SOB, and that magical moment at the '73 Belmont Stakes when Secretariat ran like a beautiful machine in motion. He compares and contrasts Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus, and reveals who he'd take if they were matched in their prime. And we hear how Dave found a community in the past decade by chronicling a girls high school basketball team in Illinois. Kindred forged a close relationship with Ali while working as a staff writer and columnist for the heavyweight champion's hometown newspaper, the Louisville Courier-Journal, from 1965 to '77. He went on to serve as sports columnist for The Washington Post (1977-84), the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (1984-89 and 1995-97), The National Sports Daily (1989-91), and the Sporting News (1991-2007). Dave has been a contributing writer for Golf Digest since 1997, and he's a regular contributor online for the National Sports Journalism Center. He also wrote a news column for several years while at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and he was the Washington D.C. correspondent for the Courier-Journal. Dave's started as a sportswriter in 1959 at The Daily Pantagraph in Bloomington-Normal, Illinois, while he was a student earning a B.A. in English at Illinois Wesleyan ‘63. He worked there for six years before moving to Kentucky. He went on to write more than 7,000 columns and 12 books, including the memoir, “Leave Out the Tragic Parts: A Grandfather's Search for a Boy Lost to Addiction,” that was published in 2021. By his count, Dave has covered 75 major golf championships dating back to the 1966 PGA Championship. He also covered 44 Super Bowls, 43 Kentucky Derby races; 44 World Series, eight Olympic Games (Winter and Summer) and eight Wimbledon Championships, and three NBA Finals, He was in Munich, Germany for the '72 Olympic massacre and in Lake Placid, N.Y. for the 1980 Miracle on Ice. And he likes to say that he's lost golf balls in 22 countries on four continents. Kindred's six-decade career – including how he has written in retirement about the Morton High School girls basketball team in recent years – was featured in a segment of 60 Minutes that aired March 28, 2021 on CBS. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/dave-kindred-local-sportswriter-60-minutes-2021-03-28/ His books include: · “Morning Miracle: Inside the Washington Post: A Great Newspaper Fights for Its Life” · “Sound and Fury: A Dual Biography of Muhammad Ali and Howard Cosell” · “Around the World in 18 Holes with Tom Callahan” · “Basketball: The Dream Game in Kentucky” · “Theismann” · “The Kentucky Derby: A Great American Tradition” · “Glove Stories” · “Heroes, Fools & Other Dreamers” You can follow him on Twitter: @DaveKindred Learn more about your ad choices.

Dave Kindred for KY Sports Memories by Gary Fogle
Mark Bradley of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution remembers being intimidated at sharing press boxes with the likes of Lewis Grizzard, Furman Bisher, Dave Kindred and numerous other giants of the sportswriting industry. Bradley gradually developed a style all his own and is known as one of the best of his craft in sports column writing -- especially when facing murderous deadlines. What was it like to sit next to Grizzard and his old-school typewriter in a press box? What was it like doing a story on the holder for Kevin Butler's 60-yard field goal that beat Clemson in 1984? What's it like being told by Hawks coach Mike Fratello that he's done with you, that "you stabbed me in the heart?" What was it like, seven years ago, hearing that Steve Spurrier waged figurative war on him after Bradley wrote (accurately, as it turned out) that Spurrier might not last much longer at South Carolina? What's it like dealing with the vast modern-day restrictions on media access that make it much more difficult to develop relationships with the people you cover? Bradley is a trove of entertaining anecdotes from his decades spent telling the world what he thinks. He also gives his take on what he think will happen in Saturday night's mammoth showdown between Clemson and Georgia.
