OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

David McCullough wrote this in '92, but he started it in '82.  Exhaustively researched.  Finally finished it.  There's no way to do this biography justice in the limited space other than to say if you haven't read this, you should.    
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

Second'd.  The book is huge.  Love it.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

Gil's gheyness for Nixon is dwarfed by mine for Truman. Outstanding read.
