Back in the pre-Mafia-social-media days thin-skinned Bills fans really used to hate Mort because he covered the Bills organization like the irrelevant sh!t show that they were under Ralph.    He caught a lot of flack from Bills fans that he really didn't deserve for being honest, IMO.

He was a quality human being. There was no rancor in his honesty. Old school, before the age of influencers and the like corrupted everything.

RIP

 

For some reason I always found him to be more likable than most. He had struggled with his health for years, but when it comes to an end it’s still a shock. Prayers for the family to find peace.

Throat cancer is what got my Dad.   Rich Eisen announced Mortensen's passing as they were concluding their combine coverage.  Daniel Jeremiah broke into tears talking about what he meant to him.  He said they were texting each other throughout the day yesterday about draft prospects.   He was a real pro until the end.  RIP and thank you, Mr. Mortensen.

A lovely man.  He showed his love of his work, and his courage, when he returned to the microphone after his initial treatments.  

 

So sorry for him and his family.
