We truck on with the Bedford & Sullivan research process as the winter season grows thicker around us. Former Associate Press Writer Hal Bock had a long and illustrious career covering all and everything he could possibly cover in sports, whether that was World Series ballgames or Olympics overseas. When he was a kid, he would first turn to the sports pages in the daily paper, always looking forward to the latest Willard Mullin cartoon, the man who created the Brooklyn Bum, along with a slew of other memorable characters.
