I like it so far; I think Bob Costas is rad, just generally.   But I have to see how it shakes out, because some of the things he’s talking about, dynastically, were germane when he wrote the book five-odd years ago but don’t seem as relevant now.   Like, I absolutely understand what he’s saying re: the Yankees and the Expos, but the Yanks haven’t won a Series since 2000, and the Expos…aren’t, anymore, so while I completely agree on sharing revenue from broadcast sources and all that good stuff, I also feel like a lot of the “deserving small-market teams don’t win” pearl-clutching is out of date.   As is every Boston reference.   Anyway, we’ll see.   The writing is good, at least.   (8/12/05)
