The Shattucks allegedly offered the victim's family ten (yes 10) MILLION DOLLARS to keep the incident on the "down low" ~ to not report incident to authorities. The victim's family did what was best for their son and family ~ much respect to the parents. Most likely not the end of this story~ Money can create quite a… Read more

Ficker's son lived across the hall from my my freshman year of college. Dude was a piece of work, for sure. Then one time he went on a bender and apparently didn't get in touch with his family for a while.

I too worked in the ESPN The Magazine research department. When I interviewed I met Roger and got talking to him about the best WWII tanks. He also claimed to have been there, when the very first 3 pt shot was taken in college basketball. I never got to work with him as the Magazine moved to Bristol (from New York)… Read more

We, the writers—a word I am using in its most primitive sense—arrived in Chicago about 10 days before the baffling, bruising, an unbelievable two minutes and six seconds at Comiskey Park.
