Default There is so much information...

that many guys are not even aware of that were not there in the beginnings of what has come to be. Many guys know some of the history but not a lot of the history.

The Tweak is a magazine, not a book (just my opinion Rookie). A book is something that chronicles the milestones and achievements of the game, not just individuals.

There were things in the early years of Tudor, conversations between Lee Payne and myself, the Klingbeils, the Landsmans, Myron Evans, trips to Superior Toys, and Tudor, and other things before the Internet where many of us were talking via Stadiumtalk,
The Read Zone, Outside the Lines, and other publications that were the forerunner.

There were characters who were as colorful and understood the importance of giving back to the game, hoping that someday the game would take its rightful place.

The game is viewed from the eyes of different people in different perspectives and a book can be written in that way or by one person's perspective. There's no right way or wrong way, only that the person has to be dedicated to the task.

Everyone tells a story with their own flava, in their own way, but everybody does not have that unique ability to convey those thoughts in an eloquent way to move people.

I just wondered if y'all had given it much thought. This was not to force this thinking on anyone, just wondering how many think about giving back instead of just taking information.
