    So should this be the thread to discuss his work?

    Which makes it no less sad, but on two levels.

    I would support this idea.

    Summer of '49 was a hell of a book, and I don't give a flip about the Yankees or the Sox.

    I recently read the book on Belichick. One of the best takes on a "biography" I've ever read. More of a profile of his coaching style and its origins... Tremendous.

    So where'd everyone play it in the paper? I'd say for my shop, but I'm so embarrassed I could cry.

    Sad day indeed.

    The Belichick book was very good. Wished it was longer.

    Who knows if Steve Kelley of the Seattle Times looks at this site, but would like to here his thoughts -- he was mentioned several times during 'Breaks of the Game' as the Blazers beat reporter in the late 1970s.

    I was done before deadline, but I'm willing to bet ZERO play up here north of the border.

    I own The Teammates (which is pretty damn good) and Summer of '49 (which is the first "baseball book" I ever owned).

    Did papers run this in A section or in sports?

    Proud to say we had it on the front page of our paper.
