Title: There's No "There" There
Review: Try as I did, I barely made it thorough this dry, rather unimaginative history. What insights it provided were hardly worth making. Better to subscribe to the magazine, which is not, as the author maintains, on the creative downside. Deford, Jenkins, et al. were no prose giants. In retrospect, they were lucky to have access to a vehicle that would print their second-rate blather. I much prefer today's writers. They're funnier, write more crisply and take sportswriting for what it is - entertainment.
