My wife and I were recently vacationing close to where Steve Hovley resides. I requested an interview but never heard back from him. Some former players love talking about their playing days. Others have moved on, and I respect that.
Hovley is reported to be one of those guys who has moved on and that should come as no surprise, as Hovley was always a little different. I don’t mean different in a bad way. Hovley would often visit art museums in the cities where he was playing. He would read Nietzsche while sitting on the bench. I don’t read any Nietzsche, but like Hovley, if I’m in a city or more than two days, I too seek out the art museums.
