My Wide World of Sports: Travel Along on a Lifetime Journey of Bats, Balls and a Whole Lot More - Paperback
Description
by Tom Schuman (Author)
The world of sports touches our lives in so many ways. Most of us played some version of the games in our younger days. Even more become ardent supporters of their favorite teams. Some take to the road to view the contests in person, while others practice their fandom from afar.
I qualify for all of the above. In addition, I have spent 45 years as a journalist - sportswriter, newspaper staffer and magazine editor. In each of these roles, and beyond, I accumulated fascinating stories about the games, personalities and experiences.
Yes, we've got hoops' tales from basketball-crazy Indiana and the ups - and mostly downs - from professional teams in Cincinnati. We mix in global tennis and soccer adventures and everything from hockey and golf to cricket and curling.
The individuals encountered, to name a few, include Bob Knight, Lou Holtz, Jack Nicklaus, Tom Brokaw, Carl Erskine, Pete and Alice Dye and many more. The big games include multiple NCAA Final Fours, the World Series and Super Bowl.
I have spent most of my life telling others' stories. Along the way, I've accumulated a few anecdotes of my own that I'm confident you will enjoy.
