When I started at the Globe 40 years ago, there were seven newspapers in Boston and now there are only two. There were only three or four television stations in Boston and now there are a dozen.

William "Will" McDonough (July 6 1935–January 9 2003) was an American sportswriter for the Boston Globe. His other son Terry McDonough is director of player personnel for the Jacksonville Jaguars in the National Football League. His TV appearances included stints as part of NBC's NFL Live pregame show from 1991-1993.
