I was drafted by the New York Yankees in the late 1990's and spent a little over 3 years in the Yankees minor league organization. The very first person I met when I got out of my car in Tampa, Florida

My cousin, we'll call him Tom, called me one Monday morning several weeks ago and said, "Well, Rick's in the hospital again." I asked him what happened this time and he said that Rick ran out of booze

A little over three years ago, I was just like many of you. I had two car payments, a mortgage payment that I could barely afford, a semi-secure job...etc. I had no savings, felt unfulfilled with my lot
