The site also posts the original Bernard Goldberg profile of Dykstra on HBO's Real Sports from March 2008. It neglects to post the follow-up story when Goldberg discovers Dykstra has fallen on hard times. Nor will you find my interview with him from last summer anywhere on the Web site.
At Nails Investments, Dykstra compares life to being an athlete.
"Life is not a spectator sport and there are no rehearsals. We owe it to ourselves to give everything we have to give every single day, in fact, the only true failure is to waste the time we've been given on this Earth."

I've emailed Dykstra to see how things are going. If I hear back, you'll be the first to know.
