Remember Golden Richards? His name and his blonde hair seem like something made up for a children’s sports novel, but his name really is John Golden Richards. His mention in “Death and Football” http://nocera.blogs.nytimes.com/death-and-football-by-clark-booth/ led me down the Internet rabbit hole to learn of his track star days in SLC http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1082637/index.htm, his bishop’s ultimatum of playing at the University of Utah and going on a mission, or of playing at BYU and foregoing a mission www.mormonstoday.com/010629/S2GRichards01.shtml, and this reminiscence that sadly seems to read like a day with Hunter Thompson. deadspin.com/5009887/there-goes-my-hero-golden-richards-wont-wake-up
