The story of my boyhood sports hero

The authorized story, that is...

When I was a wee lad, all I wanted to do was be a pro baseball player.  I'd play every chance I got, I'd read everything I could about the game, and I'd watch every game I could, whether it was pro (we had a Single A team in town), college or high school.  Heck, back then, I didn't even know they didn't make all that much money.  Certainly not the kind of money they make today.   But I digress.

My baseball idol back in those days was Willie Mays.  Scratch that.  He still is.  And, he's the reason for this post.  We finally have an authorized biography of Willie Mays!  I can't wait to read it!
