正當今天ESPN的IG幾乎被籃球熱戰新聞攻佔的同時,有一則與NFL相關的訃聞倒是靜悄悄地
順帶出現在上面,而且主角正是ESPN的自己人—
以下是ESPN張貼此消息的附文:
We're very sorry to share the devastating news that Chris Mortensen, an award-wi
nning NFL journalist at ESPN for more than three decades, died Sunday morning at
the age of 72.
Thanks for everything, Mort. We'll miss you dearly.
我們很遺憾得證實一項必定會讓人難過的新聞:曾經獲獎無數,並且在ESPN效力超過30年的
資深NFL記者-Chris Mortensen,已經於週日早上過世,享壽72歲
我們感謝你所做的一切,也一定會好好懷念你的。
———————————————————————
值得一提的是,Mortensen過世的消息,倒是在ESPN對手品牌The Atheletic有更詳細的生平
報導

Chris Mortensen, an NFL journalism pioneer, died at 72, leaving an enduring lega
cy at ESPN. His work ultimately helped develop an entire cottage industry that i
s ubiquitous today — the sports television insider.
NFL新聞圈的先鋒人物,並且在ESPN建立又持續傳奇地位的Chris Mortensen,在週日以72歲
的年齡過世。他最大的貢獻,就是協助發展了一項如今已變得無所不在的產業—出現在電視
的體育內幕記者
Mortensen, who joined ESPN in 1991, was ever-present on the network's programs a
nd platforms, from “Sunday NFL Countdown" to "SportsCenter" to ESPN Radio to th
e NFL Draft to Super Bowl coverage to offseason features. He covered every Super
Bowl since 1985, except for Super Bowl 50 when he was forced to take a leave of
absence in 2016 after being diagnosed with Stage IV throat cancer.
Mortensen在1991年加入ESPN後,便持續出現在該集團的節目與平台,如賽前分析的Sunday
NFL Countdown、體育新聞Sports Center甚至廣播節目。他參與的重要時刻,更是從超級杯
、選秀到休賽季異動都有。他1985年起就負責超級杯的採訪工作,唯一的例外是2016年的第
50屆—因為他當時要治療第四期喉嚨癌
Mortensen died Sunday morning at age 72, ESPN announced. He is survived by his w
ife Micki and son Alex.
Mortensen過世的消息,也已經在當天獲得ESPN的證實。據知他生前的最後一刻,有配偶與
兒子Alex陪伴
心得:Rest In Peace,也感謝他對美式足球的貢獻
不過ESPN在NFL的記者組合似乎有點失血,除了Mortensen外,Dianna Russini也已經在去年
跳槽到The Athletic了..
