The Wild World of Sports: over a Century of Amusing Stories and Quotes Gene Elston

Sports personalities are too often pictured as completely serious competitors, giving their all for the game. While sports naturally involves a very serious attitude, there is also a lighter side which fans are seldom aware. This book has been compiled from a collection of those brief and pointed anecdotes as well as some of the outstanding short sports stories. Fortunately I had the foresight to begin and maintain a voluminous collection of sports humor over the years from which I have extracted what I feel are the best and most worthy of remembering. I hope you will find this intriguing collection of sports humor and wit one of the most enjoyable, amusing and refreshing books it will ever be your pleasure to read
