It highlights some of sports' most interesting people and shares their life stories and the traits that made them successful into short stories that are both entertaining and informative.   Reid Ryan Houston Astros Baseball Club   Andy, I just read the chapter on my dad, 'Shag,' in your book In the Company of Greatness.
