  • FAMILY ON BIKES: The Yukon Wilderness - Part 7

    by Jacquie KubinPublished August 8, 2008

    This is the "cussedest land I’ve seen." After pedaling 1200 miles through Alaska and the Yukon, I can honestly say I finally understand the allure of the far north. I “get” why people are so captivated with this area. Mountains extending to the heavens and valleys so deep they seem to descend to the depths of the earth… Crystal clear, bright blue skies one minute and pouring rain the next… Moose, bears and beavers… It’s a life so foreign to the one I know and yet so appealing I can imagine the day I drop everything to move here...

  • KILL - Cooperstown Bound? - Lee Smith

    by JAY LeBLANCPublished August 8, 2008

    Lee Smith entered the league during a time when the closer's role was transitioning from what it once was - often times, a multi-inning affair - to what it is today - one and done in the ninth. Smith's case for induction makes for one of the most interesting Hall of Fame debates ever because, as one of the very first one-inning closers to knock on Cooperstown's door, there isn't much precedent for voters to fall back on.
