Yes, there has been a lot of press about the NBA debacle. While I think the NBA folks have been ham-handed at their inept handling of the "error," I would be remiss if I did not also note that the other 5 books are deserving of our attention, too. The link above will take you to the blog of one of the NBA judges, Will Weaver (and if you do not know his books, for heaven's sake, read them all!), with some thoughts.
And I would also be remiss if I did not tell you that I now have 5 extra copies of SHINE that I purchased from Amazon. I am trying to come up with some fun way of getting them out into the hands of folks who will read them and pass them along. Ideas?
