Quin Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 So, this project has been in the works for going on two years of grad school for me, a documentary celebrating the life and legacy of Minnie Minoso. It started as a SoxNet idea and grew from there, now we're proud to publicly unveil it as it enters the home stretch of production. http://www.chicagonow.com/soxnet/2017/02/i...he-cuban-comet/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsox Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Minnie captivated me when he joined the Sox in 1951. I was pretty young, but old enough to know we had something special. I still use his name on various passwords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While looking through the archives of papers, my favorite quote about him in 1951 is that he had "catchers around the league jumping more than a Communist at a Senate hearing" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 Did some animation. Kickstarter isn't done yet, so feel free to donate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad someone can't get this in front of Alexi, Abreu, or Moncada. They'd gladly drop some coin. Hope it goes off well and ends up getting bought by some network.

Trying to get MLB Network to take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 One of my dad's favorite Sox. He was always telling me about the "go go sox" of his childhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted August 16, 2018 Author Share Posted August 16, 2018 As a long overdue update: It's still being worked on and looking for an actual publisher. If anyone wants extra details, feel free to DM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone wants extra details, feel free to DM me. Have you contacted the negro league museum ? I think your film would be a great addition to what ss2k5 posted above, the la vida baseball exhibit. Also seems perfect for PBS . And as far as exposure goes have your tried a Wayne's World approach like public access TV ?
