Unabashedly Sentimental -- Delightful

I guess that I'm getting old. In my mind the Dodgers still belong in Brooklyn. And all the other teams should be where they started. The Cubs, and a very few others are where they belong. Staying in one place gives one a sense of history, a sense of belonging, a sense of family. It's been sixty years and more since Andy Pafko made his Cubs debute before a crowd of 314 fans. What's he doing now? What indeed are all the 50 players interviewed for this book doing now? This is an unabashedly sentimental look at the Cubs family. It's like catching up with a cousin visited as a child and long since moved away. A delightful read.
