Since we were “dark” last night to use the show biz expression, thought I’d throw in an R.I.P. for author David Halberstam. “Summer of ‘49″ – if you never read it as a Yankee fan, shame on you, just wonderful. His “Summer of ‘64″ was good too, the tail end of the Yanks magnificent era. Oh yeah, between baseball books I hear his political books like “The Best and the Brightest” and his Pulitzer winning Vietnam reporting were pretty good too. Understatement, Understatement.
