Albany fans

For those baby boomers who remember the great Albany teams of the late 1960s, I ran into Tom Doody, a starter on the 1967-1968 team, shortly before an Albany-Vermont game in February. It was remarkable how much he could recall from the 18-4 season when Albany was--despite the record--denied a bid to the then Division 2 NCAA tournament.

Last Friday I had the privilege of meeting John Volperian the host of Beyond the Game in White Plains. We recorded an interview about the Madness of March: Bonding and Betting with the Boys in Las Vegas. John was a reservoir of information about all sports and fun to work with.

This Wednesday, March 4, I meet with Bill Littlefield host of National Public Radio's Only a Game program.
