I was thinking this too. Were this 1980 and not 2000, I would have guessed Howard Cosell, but Cosell died in 1995. One of the commenters at the end the article likely nailed it: It's someone that likes attention. A frequent topic in the NY tabloids of the day. Likes to see and be seen, especially at every big event in New York. "Total self-absorption." Yeah, that guy.

Roger Angell's prose was a major factor in influencing my love for baseball in particular, and sports In general.
And yes...it has to have been The Former Guy at whom the spitballs were targeted.
Requiescat in pace, Roger.
