I‘ve always loved the versatility of sports writing - a good piece can be part mystery, memoir and even Econ lesson. I probably love sports writing more than actually watching sports (tho I can waste a Sunday Knitting and watching NFL RedZone). I think last years edition was stronger, but this one includes a great piece on Tiger Woods and a stunner of a mystery dealing with a missing long distance runner.
