Jim Murray, the dean of American sportswriters, entertained readers with writing that is so good and so funny that even people who don't like sports read him. The Jim Murray Reader gathers some of Murray's best columns from the height of his career and showcases the wit and the style that won him a Pulitzer Prize in 1990.His inexhaustible talent and limitless range are on full display here: from the perplexities of tennis scoring ("a game in which love counts for nothing, deuces are wild, and the scoring system was invented by Lewis Carroll") and baseball rules ("The infield fly rule is about as simple as calligraphy. It might as well be a Japanese naval code") to Murray's Laws ("The way to make a line move faster is to join the other one") and many of his colorful profiles ("Richard Petty has climbed in more windows than 50 car thieves. . . . He wasn't born, he was assembled and modified"). His striking images, evocative prose, and hyperbolic one-liners have made Murray one of the most quotable and most celebrated sports columnists of the twentieth century.

Nice backpack
Color: Raven Crosshatch
The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because there is no strap on the back to fasten to the suitcase. That would be helpful when running through the airport. Nice backpack with lots of pockets to organize and a water bottle holder on both sides.
