It never ceases to amaze me — and I’ll always be grateful — that the blogosphere has opened a new channel of communication and that there are celebrities willing to talk with, in many cases, with “just plain folks.”
A good example is BrokenCowboy, “Sports views with a West Coast Bias.” The blogger, who chooses not to divulge any personal information, has posted author interviews with
- Jason Stark, author of The Stark Truth: The Most Overrrated and Underrated Players in Baseball History
- Michael Sokolove, The Ticket Out: Darryl Strawberry and the Boys of Crenshaw
- Tom Stanton, author of books about the Tigers, Cooperstown, and his latest offering about Ty Cobb and babe Ruth
- Alex Bleth, Stepping Up: The Story of All-Star Curt Flood and his Fight for Baseball Players’ Rights
- Jeff Pearlman, Love Me, Hate Me
- Jonathan Eig, Opening Day: The Story of Jackie Robinson’s First Season
