註釋From one of sportswriting's best-known commentators comes a manisfesto for the common fan - an explosive exploration, by turns angry and mordantly funny, of the state of contemporary sports, and what we can do about it. We go to the games, we buy the merchandise, we commit ourselves to a team, and what happens? The players leave. The teams leave. The whole sport goes out on strike. And the ticket prices go up. Again. The only thing that's left is the uniforms - if the marketing geniuses haven't changed those too. Now nationally known columnist and sportswriter Mike Lupica gives vent to the anger that has permeated so much of contemporary sports discussion, delivering a broadside that not only lays out where we are, but investigates how we got there. Step by step, he explores how the players, the owners, the agents, the commissioners, even his own media, brought us to this state - and then proposes some revolutionary ideas of his own about how fans, individually and together, can make the whole runaway industry sit up and take notice.
