The sports journalism community is mourning the sudden passing of Mike Dickson, a prominent figure in tennis reporting. Dickson, who was set to celebrate his 60th birthday on January 27, died suddenly while in Melbourne for the Australian Open.
The news of his death was confirmed through a social media post by his wife and children. "We are devastated to announce that our wonderful husband and Dad, Mike, has collapsed and died while in Melbourne for the Aus Open," read the message shared via Dickson's X account. "For 38 years, he lived his dream covering sport all over the world. He was a truly great man, and we will miss him terribly," added the message from "Lucy, Sam, Ruby, and Joe."
While generally respected in the sports journalism space, Dickson was also the author of many stories shaming and trying to cancel tennis star Novak Djokovic.

"Novak Djokovic will remain a hero to some, but to many others he has TRASHED his reputation beyond repair," and "Novak Djokovic could ruin his chances of becoming the GOAT by refusing to take the vaccine… it is a strange hill to die on for a player who is so desperate to be loved."

Next female dog I get, I’m going to name her “Karma”.
Sexist.
I hope every Deep State Globohomo democrat took multiple COVID jabs.
“Died suddenly” is going to be preferable to what awaits them in 12 months when Donald Trump takes power.
yep ... racist and homophobic as well.
* well played!
I’m not mourning. FAFO
Soul brother/sister!
The winter of severe illness and death rolls on.
___________________________
The carnage has not peaked by a long shot. The piled-up humanity will turn into the new Dark Age, which precedes societal collapse. This bio-weapon is stripping society of its economic strength. because it uniquely removes the young from the equation.
Fake news. Trump was in Iowa talking about the billions saved worldwide by operation warp speed. Iowa has confirmed the vax saves.
It would be different if he had just reported Novak’s [fake] vax stance. But to actively try to destroy the man’s reputation and career........
I am unable to care about this man’s demise if it is indeed clot shot related. Which in Australia is well within the realm of possibility.
The 3 counties north of SF are apparently not seeing a lot of Covid or near Covid so far this year.
No panicking in the streets, stores and media so far.
20 January 2024!
“Safe and effective” for early death.
Well I’m po’d since it didn’t save mine since 🚫💉! Oh, wait I’m still here. Imagine that!
It would be so much worse if he didn’t have the jab. /. Sarc
How many “boo$ter$” ?
Exactly. I have a kitty too and always end an emphatic statement with “even a cat knows that”.
Karma comes in strange ways..................
What was foisted upon this country during COVID is my only voting issue. Evil doers are literally trying to kill the population. RFK knew it, knows it, and is trying to do something about it.
This is from yesterday…
Same here but instead of lung issues, she has fibromyalgia issues and may have to go on disability.
