That book most be out of business, b/c that wasn't even in the same ballpark for the ML on the LSU/Clemson game. 6:1, lol.

Here are 3 I highly recommend

Football: "Friday Night Lights"- been around but great book
Golf: "Tales from Q-School" by John Feinstein- Q-School is no longer around but these are great stories. He took the best section from "A Good Walk Spoiled" which was the Q-School & wrote a whole book on it.
Baseball: "Bottom of the 33rd" by Dan Berry- Story about the game & players in the longest game ever recorded, a AAA minor league game in the early 80s. Fantastic stories about the players & a few names you'll certainly recognize participated in this game.
These are a few off the top of my head.
