As kids they penned a book of dire prophecies an imaginative work describing the need to save the world from an elusive cadre of villains; when the individuals grew up the global disasters started actually happening and it seemed incredibly bizarre borderline inexplicable. A mysterious fellow named Friend turned up claiming that a terrorist named Kenji was responsible for the... Less

The first decade of baseball in the 20th century witnessed the ascension of two stars who stood above the rest: Ty Cobb in the American League and Honus Wagner in the National. If Cobb was the game's tortured bully, Wagner was the anti-Cobb. He was kind and quiet, the most beloved figure in the game before Ruth, the local boy from the coalfields of western Pennsylvania who made good on the green fields of Pittsburgh's ballparks. Despite terribly bowed legs and freakishly large hands, he patrolled the shortstop slot with remarkable dexterity; he may not have been as acrobatic as Ozzie Smith, but no shortstop was steadier defensively. Offensively, he was a genius, winning eight batting crowns, four in a row between 1906 and 1909, and he remains, almost a century later, among the... Less
