Schadenfreud - Mitch Albom

BrooklynDodger has had it in for Mitch Albom since he scabbed the newspaper strike in Detroit, these many years ago. He crossed the line at a time it would have made a difference, hurting the strike since he had a bit of a liberal veneer, and certainly had other places to peddle his talent.

So, Mitch reported a story about two MSU players at the game, who didn't go to the game, with a lot a really nice details which never occurred. He posted the story before the game was played, so there's no doubt it was dry labbed.

Albom crossed over from sports with "Tuesdays With Morrie," which the Dodger recalls recounts discussions with a dying professor. Did Mitch write both parts of those conversations?
