A nice book of light and humorous reading about all sports

Interspersed with the drama, sporting events have their moments of hilarity or absurdity and this book is a chronicle of some of the best of the howlers. Some examples are: *) The high school basketball game that ended with a score of 1-0. *) The NFL official that shot himself in the butt with the timing pistol before officiating the first game. *) The pole-vaulter that caught his shorts on the pole and ripped them off. *) The NFL game played in mud that ended in a 0-0 score. *) The catcher that was so angry at a call that he threw the ball into the outfield that allowed all the runners to score. *) The golfer that celebrated a great shot by throwing his club into the air and taking a bow. The club came down and hit him on the head. This is a nice book of light and humorous reading about all varieties of sports.
