Our next session is less than a month away. Ray Hudson will be joining us to discuss the film Once in a Lifetime: The Extraordinary Story of the New York Cosmos. The session will be held on Friday, February 24, at 2pm Eastern Time. The film will be an excellent launching point to discuss not just the Cosmos and NASL, but also the representation and construction of sport history on film.
Clive Toye’s book, A Kick in the Grass, also discusses the history of the NASL and would be worth perusing before the session. I would also remind everyone that we are building a film repository. This project can be a great success with the group’s contributions in the form of annotations and adding titles. As always, please RSVP asap to be included in the Skype conversation.
