Reading "Moneyball" right now.  A great read so far!  A must for any baseball fan.

Moneyball was fantasti.  Lewis' next book, The Blind Side isn't bad, but not as good as Moneyball.

I haven't had a chance yet to read Blind Side I know when I was interning at ESPN Radio I tried to get that book as a promotional item. It sounds pretty interesting and very befitting since an LT was the #1 overall pick this NFL draft.
