Win a Copy of "Willie Mays Aikens: Safe at Home" - Contest #1

I have a couple copies of the book "Willie Mays Aikens: Safe at Home" to give out. Here is a brief description:

An intimate portrait of a tortured player, this biography culls interviews, letters, and the personal account of baseball legend Willie Mays Aikens. Touted from a young age as the next Reggie Jackson, Aikens' promising career quickly turned disastrous when he fell into drug abuse and was ultimately sentenced to the longest prison sentence ever given to a professional athlete in a drug case. Not only an exploration of baseball and culture in the 1980s, this book also delves into the United States justice and penal systems.

The first contest is easy, make a comment to this thread with the work "Entry" in the subject. On Monday morning, I will lock down the thread, pick a random winner, and mail them the book. it will hopefully be that simple. I will make the second contest a little harder.
