These images are from an honorary dinner for longtime Boston Globe sports reporter, Bob Ryan, who recently retired from the newspaper after 44 years. There’s nothing spectacular about these, but I wanted to post them anyway. It was neat to be surrounded by the most accomplished sports writers in Boston, a city so rich with sports history and culture.
