What Happens In Henderson. Monday, March 30, 2009. Drew Carey and March Madness. In my most recent Weekly article, I took a look at March Madness from the fan's-eye view at local sports books.

What Happens In Henderson: TBBBC Book 2 review
http://whathappensinhenderson.blogspot.com/2009/06/tbbbc-book-2-review.html
What Happens In Henderson. Monday, June 1, 2009. TBBBC Book 2 review. Book 2 review. The May entry was Frank Deford's The Entitled, a Tale of Modern Baseball. It's a bit of a lofty title, but then again, Deford is a bit of a lofty writer. One of the true living legends of the sportswriting biz, Deford has dabbled in the fiction world before, most notably with Everybody's All-American. Is another character study that just happens to be set in the world of Major League Baseball. The drama centers on an inc...

What Happens In Henderson. Monday, April 6, 2009. The Baseball Bunch Book Club. Do you remember The Baseball Bunch? Here's what's on tap for TBBBC this summer:. The Last Real Season. By Mike Shropshire - I absolutely loved his book Seasons in Hell. Which chronicled his time covering the Texas Rangers in the early 70s, back when Ted Williams and Billy Martin made for more interesting copy off the field than Mike Hargrove and Toby Harrah made on the field. The Last Real Season. Is a look at the 1975 baseba...

What Happens In Henderson: Day 3: Boogie wonderland
http://whathappensinhenderson.blogspot.com/2009/07/day-3-boogie-wonderland.html
What Happens In Henderson. Thursday, July 9, 2009. Day 3: Boogie wonderland. We're here. The cross-country trek, or at least the first half of it, is over. Will I have the energy to blog the return trip in late August? Hard to say, but this has been a pretty fun way of capturing some memories. Eventually I spotted a sign for Western Iowa Community College, and we quickly did the math: college students = need for caffeine. We still didn't find a Starbucks, but we did come across a quaint mom-and-pop-a...

Mike Shropshire's account of the 1975 MLB season, gathered from his notes and stories he collected on the Texas Rangers beat for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

If you've already r...

What Happens In Henderson: August 2009
http://whathappensinhenderson.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
What Happens In Henderson. Thursday, August 20, 2009. Which leads me to my next point. This blog might be in for a name change, because our future in Henderson is currently in doubt. Kris returned to Vegas in early August, two weeks ahead of the rest of the family, to get back to work. The next day, she was laid off. But her job was the reason we came to Vegas, and even after four years, it's pretty much the only thing tying us here. Sure, we've made some good (great! Friends, gotten involved in our chur...
