Just the Ticket

Have you ever wanted to be as informed as your friends when watching or reading about a sports event? When the sportswriter and the sportscaster run through the plays and you only get a glimpse of what they are talking about and feel you can't enter the after game discussion with your buddies - then this is just the ticket for you. Gerry Cox and Don Jozwiak have zeroed in on these listings making them concise and to the point. I wanted to have the book mostly for baseball and football but many other sports will now be of more interest to me. Having had this publication for only two days I feel much more informed and eagerly anticipate the next sports event.
