I'm interested in your comments on this book because I am Earl's son, Eric. It's amazing to me that 12 years after my father worked his final game in 1990, and 8 years after his death in 1994, people still talk about him and his views on officiating. Although I've got to say that some people have strange interpretations on some of the things in his book.
For those who are interested, I wrote a series of 50 short stories about my father's career which appeared on a site called
http://www.onhoops.com. This site died last year, but I found the stories on
http://www.archive.org. Just enter onhoops.com in the search panel, then click on the archive for 1999 or 2000, then click on the Earl Strom Memoires link. Feel free to let me know what you think.
