I ran across this charming piece of Illowa APBA League history and couldn’t pass up the chance to share it. It’s an article written in 1979 for our monthly newsletter. Tedd Mallasch wrote it after winning the league championship that year.
Charming because it’s a handwritten note, something we rarely see in these digital days. Also charming because it’s not full of analysis and stats but rather of humor and emotion.
It’s essentially a thank you note to his Chicago Champions team for winning it all. And he certainly found something nice to say about everybody (“to Doug Rau for winning 2 of 3 decisions”).
It brought a smile to my face.
