As journalists, we always ask subjects about their memories. But are we doing ourselves (and our readers) a disservice? Also, five questions with Jessica Terry and J. Cole kicking ass.
I'm curious about the extensive interviews with the 720 people for the Bo book..so how much of that was asking about specific games/plays and how much was it about moods (as you put it)? Or like your Laker books seem to have a lot of moments from the seasons that are specific to certain games. I'm planning a project now that is looking back at something 35 years ago, and am in the same dilemma about going through a season and looking for key moments but now I'm worried about relying on the players and coaches' specific memories.
