Jeremy Lin Meets Fired Headline Writer

Jeremy Lin has met with the ESPN headline writer who was fired over an offensive headline he wrote about the Knicks star's first loss, and all appears to be forgiven."It went incredible," Anthony Federico, 28, told Newsday. "We talked for an hour. I'm just so thankful." Federico has previously called the headline an "honest mistake."

Lin declined to talk about the meeting, which came about after a member of his family contacted Federico. They've been trying to coordinate a meeting ever since, but Lin's busy schedule has proved prohibitive. "The fact that he reached out to me … He's just a wonderful, humble person," Federico says. He says they bonded over their shared Christian faith, and talked about Lin's knee injury.
