WFAN, New York listeners and the industry are mourning the passing of the station’s Sunday morning “The Sports Edge” host Rick Wolff, who died after a brief battle with brain cancer at age 71. Coverage of his death at NJ.com notes that Wolff was a Harvard graduate “with a master’s degree who dispensed common-sense advice to parents and coaches during his WFAN weekend show.” The family’s obit states, “To know Rick or Dad or Pops was to love him. He was wise, thoughtful, sharp, funny, incredibly smart, and truly just a wonderful person. In his honor, please remember to never give up on your dreams. He never did, even after so many of them had come true.” Read the NJ.com story here.
