Hilarious

Joy in Mudville is an excellent book that takes humorous articles from varioius authors and joins them to create one book. The selections are hilarious(especially one using Abbot and Costello's classic Who's on First routine with real names and players) and include comic strips, poems, magazine articles and excerpts from books all joined together by comments from editor Dick Schaap. The book is an easy read that can be enjoyed by sports fans of all ages, it should be in any sports fans collection.
