SynopsisFrom his beloved father who died when Scott was sixteen, to Ralph, his scholarly, affectionate stepfather, Scott Simon lovingly depicts his attraction to and awe of the larger-than-life forces that shaped his world. He writes about sports talk as a means of communication between fathers and sons; about Chicago as a city of fans.
