Very interesting read, and sad....

What are the details of the NYPL incident?

[JP]

I think the SI article outlines it...I think he was very young when it happened...and he was very forthright about it.

EDIT: actually the article I just read said that Nash accused Lifson of stealing from the NYPL in the 1970s, based on an old Times article. And Lifson is quoted as saying that is a categorically false accusation. So while Nash has been proven to be a liar and thief in and out of court, is there a single shred of evidence against Lifson?

There is one story in which Rob is quoted saying that he tried to swipe a couple of photos from the New York Public Library when he was a juvenile. I think I will start a rumor that he once tried to steal a base in the New York Pennsylvania League. In either case, it happened a long time ago and seems to be a rare mistake in an otherwise very respectable life.
