What's new?
1. My article about college football rivalries was published in the debut issue of Blitz magazine (pages
38-40). The quarterly publication's Web site is in development stages, but you can get information by e-mailing blitzmaginfo@gmail.com or visiting the site at www.blitzmagonline.com.
2. I've started writing a weekly piece about the Packers for www.RealFootball365.com. If my stories aren't on the front page, just go to the Green Bay team section.
3. Check out my recent article for Inside Wisconsin Sports magazine. It's about one of the state's top prep
boys basketball players, Kwamain Mitchell of Whitefish Bay Dominican.
And keep an eye out for my feature story about Angie Murphy (formerly Halbleib), who starred at Middleton
H.S. and is currently the Verona girls hoops coach. It'll be in the April issue of IWS, which hits newsstands in early
March.
4. Also, my most recent book review has been posted on MinorLeagueNews.com. The book is called "Harvard
Boys," about a father's and son's journeys through professional baseball.
Once you get done looking at the cheerleader babe on the front page, just go to the Baseball section.
My three previous reviews are available in the Books section.
