Opis

Chasing A Dream I is a season with the last professional barnstorming team in the world, the indianapolis Clowns. Chasing A Dream I is a baseball story but it is also a story about the heart and soul of America. Chasing A Dream I is a true story of America's real dream team. These young men and an old man lived the American dream: They tried their best each day and hoped for a better tomorrow. These Clowns covered more than 25,000 miles and never missed a game or failed to produce a smile. Muhammad Y. Ali and Tommy Huckleberry Nolan kept the dialogues jumping as their experiences from opposite sides of the color line in Chicago gave them different perspectives as they came to know and understand each other. These two young men show the "roots" of black anger and white resentment. There were no failures on this team despite the fact that not all the players made the big leagues. Failure to this team was being afraid to Chase the Dream They learned that when you give your best, you reap the benefits from that effort alone. They were young men and an old man from many different backgrounds and cultures who ate, slept, traveled, fought and worked together. When they woke in the morning, whether it was on the road or in a hotel, they were happy and filled with anticipation for the day ahead. They were happy because they were doing with their lives what they wanted to do: They were Chasing A Dream
