On a personal note, this grizzled old beat writer would like to thank you for inviting me into your home these last two years. As I discard my wrinkled searsucker suit and dime store cigar, recall the endless train rides and taxi fares and cheap lonely motels, I leave you with this: It was a privilege to witness and write about a bunch of swell kids and their Coaches. Bon Appetite.
