It's not a sports book, but I'm reading the Tao Te Ching. I'm kind of like the most interesting man in the world from the Dos Equis commercials when it comes to books. I don't always read books, but when I do I read something off the beaten path...

Book before last was "Survival in the Killing Fields", based on the Cambodian massacres of the 1970s. GREAT book.
Just finished Rex Ryan's (NY Football Jets head coach) "Play Like You Mean It". Good, but not great, book. About to read Orwell's "1984". And considering getting "Catch-22", which I've heard great things about. I don't read much, but realize I probably should read more often before my mind turns to total mush

"American Conspiracies" by Jesse Ventura, am in the last chapter now.
I've got to say, this book is an "eye opener" to say the least.  I've also been reading through the Kovels' Antiques & Collectibles 2010 price guide, there's a lot of cool items in there and it's pretty fun to learn about antiques.

1919 Black Sox connection
Just started reading a book that's been out a while (2003 I think?), but that I had previously missed somehow. It's called "Rothstein" by David Pietrusza.
I'm guessing a lot of board members have already read it, but it's about the life of Arnold Rothstein, the mastermind behind the 1919 World Series fix. Outstanding book so far.
