It'S About the People, Not Just the Games: 50 Years Covering New England Sports

Theres no one in Rhode Island who has covered as many sporting events in as many places as Paul Kenyon.

Over his fifty-year career as a journalist (including thirty-seven years at The Providence Journal), he covered the Boston Red Sox, the New England Patriots, University of Rhode Island basketball, high school sports, all things golf, and other sports.

As much as he enjoyed watching and writing about the games, it was getting to know what the coaches and athletes were like as people that most held his attention.

Tom Brady, for instance, used his smarts as much as his talent to win big games. Tiger Woods has done much for himself and society, but he could do so much more. Lamar Odom is an easy man to like, but hes always lacked maturity.

Whether its national events such as Major League baseball playoffs, the Super Bowl, the NCAA Basketball Tournament and Ryder Cup Golf or regular season matchups between arch rivals, Kenyon tells stories that focus on the people behind the scores.

Join Kenyon as he celebrates his love of writing, athletics, and teamwork in Its about the People, Not Just the Games.
