Late WFAN host Rick Wolff was true old-school man of honor
Four days later, Rick Wolf suddenly died of a brain tumor at the age of 71, which still pierces my heart. In addition to being an author, editor, publisher, critic, and WFAN’s weekend radio host, Wolff advocated unconditional sportsmanship to the audiences drawn to him.
