PMs, we heart you.

The past few days have filled with love showers for a number of PMs from the press.

For example, the mutual fund comeback of former Janus wunderkind Blaine Rollins was dramatized epically in the Denver Post. Rollins, who once helmed the flagship Janus Fund, only to leave after some brutal market tailwinds, has jumped back into asset management with the 361 Global Macro Opportunity Fund, sponsored by Tom Florence's 361 Capital.

Meanwhile, Gavin Baker, captain of the Fidelity OTC Portfolio fund was chronicled by Barron's. The article explores his early aspirations of working in the ski industry with interludes in rock-climbing and photography, and how he now searches for companies that he believes are building the future.

Heavily-seasoned industry veterans also got their due in a Morningstar article. The lauded luminaries include FPA Capital managers Bob Rodriguez, Dennis Bryan, and Arik Ahitov; Royce Pennsylvania Mutual's Chuck Royce and Jay Kaplan; John Gunn and his nine-person team; Weitz Partners Value's Wally Weitz; ClearBridge Aggressive Growth's Richie Freeman and Evan Bauman; the Berwyn fund's Bob Killen, Lee Grout, and George Cipolloni.

All that's left are the autographs to be signed. Maybe flowers, or a dinner and a movie.
