Here's To You, New York

In my final post before I go to New York, so I figured I should give some love to their greatest athletic moments and figures to date.

Game 6


Murderer's Row (from Ken Burns Baseball)


Lou Gehrig


Jordan making a poster out of Patrick Ewing (long version)


Joe Namath


Lawrence Taylor (Lumberjack Match)


The Contest (Glamour?)


I'll be posting again in about five days

Viva NYC

Unrelated literary note...here is a link to Michiko Kakutani smacking the taste right out of Russell Banks mouth in a review of his new book The Reserve. I'm going to see this guy read on Friday...I wonder what he'll have to say about this ass-kicking his book received by the Times.

I know! I read her review of Banks this morning! She really didn't like it, did she?

That Ken Burns knows how to document. THAT is baseball.
