Sports in America is less a well-shaped and readable book than a random walk on the subject by an author who may be thought of as the writing man's jogger.

The physiological consequences are the same as those for the hockey player...
...lone figure bounds around the Quad decked out in a ski hat, sweater, sweat pants and moccasins. Although it is 10 a.m., jogger is still half-asleep, since his "trainer," an exception to his belief that "Cliffies, for the most part, need help," has just woken him from pleasant dreams...
