| 500 words or less Has she found a publisher for this book yet? The best writers do more with less. Not critiquing the content; admirable. Such a soliloquy makes it about the storyteller. Yanks. |

| Just read it earlier today after seeing it make the internet rounds. Maybe Geno isn't as bad as I thought...nah, he somehow had a classy daughter by accident.
All joking aside, it was an unbelievable piece and a true tribute. The best rivalries in sports are sometimes the ones with nuances of respect behind all the hatred. |
