Living with other athletes would be a paradise for you. You could have a Matt Christopher book club—solely with your roommates! Think of the new insights you’ll glean for your Gov thesis on “The Kid Who Only Hit Homers.” Just remember, 50 percent of athlete blocking groups fail because jock itch...
...financial hurdles, which Scotti attributed in part to lackluster ticket sales, resulted in a 30% staff cut. Club Passim, nestled between Church and Brattle Streets, has been in existence under various guises since it first opened as the jazz venue Club 47 more than five decades ago.
