The Sporting News wrote a similar article about Al Davis last January. It's sad but likely true.

Tom McEwen was a real jewel while I was growing up in Tampa. He started most editorials with a description of his breakfast: "Over your homegrown grapefruit sprinkled with raw sugar, two pieces of toast with Amish butter and blackberry jelly, three strips of soft cooked bacon, serving of Yeltons grits and tall glass of orange juice, consider how the Bucs head coach John McKay must feel after dropping his 20th game..."

It worked for him.
