    Rich's book is awesome. It brought back so many memories. If you love indoor soccer (especially the original MISL version).

    Thanks again for everyone's kind words.

    Like I said, it was a labor of love, telling the tale of the MISL at a time, as I put it to some friends "when it all really mattered".

    Is MISL book printed in color? Is it mostly stats? Are there stories and photos?

    Anyone have photos of some of the pages?

    I feel like a schmuck, but there have been a comedy of errors on this printing. First, the guy who was printing the main pages did a shitty job (after waiting 3 weeks), so I had to go somewhere else to get them redone. Yesterday, I went to pick up the final bound books, and the binding was all scewed up. I showed the guy, and he said "looks like our binding machine is not working". I'm like "no shit, buckwheat".

    So, they have to reprint and rebind all 25 issues. I will hopefully have them by Friday and will mail them on Saturday.

    My apologies for anyone who is waiting,

    I think it's going to be well worth the wait.

    It has many stats, but there are stories and photos too. The cover is colour, but I cannot recall if anything on the inside is. I believe it is mostly black and white

    It is black and white. Rich, you did a helluva a great job with this and I appreciate it greatly. You brought back alot of memories, both of players matches, and people I went with at the old Colisseum.
    Fantastic job.

    Personally, I want to send them out too, but frigging Office Max is screwing me over. I had to send an entire run of 25 back because the binding was unacceptable and falling apart. Supposedly, they were re done and will be availabel tomorrow.

    This is pissing me off as much as the people who ordered them. This is my reputation at stake, and I have always been totally honest in my business dealings.
