NOW It Begins

Opening Night is tonight!

Then tomorrow it's truly Opening Day.

Play Ball!

And in honor of the Chicago Cubs starting another year- 100 years is it now?- here's a link to a You Tube video of the late, great Steve Goodman with a Dying Cubs Fan's Last Request.

Good to see your post about "A Dying Cub Fan's Last Request" by Steve Goodman. He often doesn't get his due. You might be interested in my 800-page biography, "Steve Goodman: Facing the Music." The book delves deeply into the genesis of "A Dying Cub Fan's Last Request" and its semi-sequel, "Go, Cubs, Go."

You can find out more at my Internet site (below). Amazingly, the book's first printing sold out in just eight months, all 5,000 copies, and a second printing of 5,000 is available now. The second printing includes hundreds of little updates and additions, including 30 more photos for a total of 575. To order a second-printing copy, see the "online store" page of my site. Just trying to spread word about the book. Feel free to do the same!
