An ESPN Love Story

The Hartford Courant traces how Scott Burton wound up on the west side of town with a talented wife and young son.

In 2013, ESPN The Magazine executive editor Scott Burton (pictured) moved with his wife, Nicole Blades, and young son to West Hartford, Connecticut. Over the weekend, the couple’s lovely personal history got some nice ink in The Hartford Courant.

Burton and Blades met at ESPN’s New York office in 2003, when both were working there. She has since moved on to novel writing and a two-book deal, while he tells freelancer M.A.C. Lynch that the longer commute to Bristol is something he actually is grateful for, as it affords him some critical decompress time.
