The Last Great SJ Thread

[Greenhorn]

Also quite a few books recently have been titled "The (election/year/etc.) that Changed America."

 

[Dick Whitman]

When I was selling a book, my agent absolutely demanded that the proposal emphasize, at every corner, that this topic changed the sport. It didn't make the subtitle, but I think it was part of the working subtitle.

Moral of the story: If you want to sell a book to a publisher, you almost have to pitch it this way.

HH - if you added 2011 to thread title you could make it a series - "The Last Great SJ Thread of 2011"

Boom, I think you're presupposing there's been more than one great thread this year ... or one great thread, period!

More indisputably inaccurate and equally unfunny than the one Azrael called attention to:

"The Last Hero: A Life of Henry Aaron", by Howard Bryant, 2011.

Aaron must have been next to last, because in 2007 David Maraniss wrote, "Clemente: The Passion and Grace of Baseball's Last Hero."

Clemente died in 1972. Aaron didn't even retire until 1976.

Someday, somewhere, someone is going to write a book about the SportsJournalists.com Valentine's Day 2012 thread.
