Anyone see the Greatest Sports Stories Never Told concerning the life of Ralph Schwamb? Wasn't bad but you would have thought he was the next Cy Young. Had no interviews with any old Brownies who played with him. Just the author of the biography of his life. Could have had Sievers, Garver, Chuck Stevens, Bob Dillinger or Less Moss. I did like the one photo of Schwamb later in life by a pool giving someone the finger. What a tool he was! Think that summed up his life.
At least it gave a little air time to the Browns.:reporter:

I liked Eric Stone's bio. Blackie Schwamb was a terrible person whose boozing made his character flaws come out, but to me his story made for interesting reading.
