He asked me about the rivalry, and what Yankee fans' reactions would be to Ortiz. I wrote about this subject for the Faster Times last week, and elaborated on it in the interview.
Anyhow, the best part of the piece is that Davidoff wrote the words, "I think Swan is right"! I told Jon I'm going to remind him of that quote every time we argue on something. It could be like a movie blurb!
Davidoff is a great writer who also does a daily blog on baseball. In case you haven't been able to find that blog thanks to Newsday's redesign, go here.
Thanks very much to Ken for writing about me in Newsday!

"The Greatest Game" writer Richard Bradley linked to Davidoff's piece in his own blog, "Shots in the Dark." Bradley also wrote some terrific analysis on the calculation behind Ortiz. Check it out here.

Poor Jon - its all downhill from here! :)
ReplyDeleteI know you're focused on other ventures, but I do hope you're going to have some predictions!
Cheers.
You apparently have also been quoted in the Boston Herald. Not sure why I ventured over there - I can't stand that rag and rarely visit their site unless I've been sent a link. Anyway, I did and his article is on their website as well.
ReplyDeleteSo welcome to the Boston media.
