I don't know how many of you are regular readers of his Plain Dealer stories, or have read any of his many books, but in my opinion this guy is one of the best.

You don't have to be a fan of the Cleveland teams to appreciate Pluto. If you haven't done so already, you should check him out.

I agree. One of my all time favorites in what is turning into a vanishing job......

Pluto is the best. He doesn't sugar coat things but at the same time he doesn't join into the "sky is falling" mentality that Shaw, Livingston and most Cleveland fans have. He's very good to read.

Nice column today, extending thanks to 1) his readers, and those of the PD (the PD readers DESERVE some thanks...), and 2) for having the opportunity to do the job he does. Kind of self-deprecating, mocking his lack of athletic career at Benedictine, yet marveling at how he can still give LeBron advice about his shot, over-dribbling, etc.

I've grown a bit tired of his lists in his column--the '1', '2', '3', etc.--but he's at his best when he writes a column like today's, about some form of human-interest.

Love hearing him when he's interviewed on the radio. Calls them like it is, and is a schill to no one.

One of the best sports writers....period!

Never read a Pluto article I didn't like, been reading him for 20+ yrs. Great insite, sort of reminds me of Rick Reily.

Very good writer. His book "Loose Balls" about the old ABA is a very good read.

I also read the article in todays PD and he seems like a very humble guy and enjoy his writings.

Pluto was always the best and I used to read him regularly when he was at the Akron Beacon Journal. I was sorry to see the PD steal him away.

I used to read the Beacon-Journal because of Terry and I now read most of his articles in the PD.

When he was at the BJ you could subscribe to his e-mail list for stories not found in his columns. I do miss that feature now that he's at the Plain Dealer.

Pluto is right up there with Windhorst and Rick Reilly as my favorite sports writers. Loved his book about the Indians rebuilding that he wrote a few years ago.
