The paperback version of LLOYD MCNEIL'S LAST RIDE is out today. It is a good book that I am proud of, and I think if you have not read it, you would like it. You can buy it wherever books are sold, and also here: harpercollins.com/products/lloyd…

“Next Thursday night, CBS will air Stephen Colbert’s final episode of ’The Late Show.‘ It will be emotional, but it will also be tangled in the tension of our fraught era,” @williamfleitch writes. wapo.st/4wvx3zw

@dsmeekeer7 Heck yeah! Also from Mattoon: Recently fired Red Sox third base coach Kyle Hudson, recently Tommy John'd Giants starter Hayden Birdsong and Carson Klein, the very accomplished lawyer and wife of Dodgers World Series hero Will Klein. We're all over your baseball dial these days.

Just listened to the morning lineup, and was shocked to hear someone from Mattoon! My family is in Charleston, and I grew up in Newton. @williamfleitch #bagelfest

For @TheAthletic, I wrote about how CFB's problem is that no one can accept failure as a lesson to be learned from rather than a grievous abnormality caused by malignant outside figures solely motivated by taking from you what you believe to be yours. nytimes.com/athletic/68733…
