Nathan Fears will tell you he’s a football player. It’s all he’s ever cared about. But after sustaining a brain injury making a hard tackle for his high school team, no one is supporting the only goal he has during his rehabilitation, to return to captaining the Crusaders’ defense before going on to play in college.
Henry Brademeier can hit a baseball better than anyone ever has. He just can’t tie his own shoes. Then Lou Esposito, in town to scout a pitcher with a strong record, sees Henry take batting practice with the home team and hit every ball, every strike, every ball rolled to him or in reach over his head. Lou decides his bosses have to find out if Henry Brademeier’s capable of actually playing the game.
A man struggles over his friend’s suicide; a single dad says goodbye to his bachelor’s pad; an old man learns to fish again; a son has a late-night encounter with his dad; a strange shop-owner seems stuck in the past; a woman remembers her grandfather. Memorable moments in everyday lives revealed in "Goodbye And Other Stories."
My best from over a quarter-century covering motor racing in the Northeast. Noteworthy newspaper and magazine columns and features. Loudmouth opinions covering everything from the shorttracks to the big-leagues of racing. Not that I'm impressed.
