About this listen
This book will dive into the hearts of fans, the glory of true champions, as well as the sometimes controversial and muddy water of sport. We will look at the highs and lows, the surprising and sometimes disturbing. Covering a range of sports, we will be looking at everything from performance-enhancing drugs, to the surprising link between a lower league soccer team and one of the biggest soccer teams in the world. We will look at the heartache, violence, and joy that being a fan can bring, and we will consider what makes it so hard for some players to let go.
As we delve into this world of elite athleticism and grandiose pride, we will see the devastation caused by ego and greed, and how sometimes the best stories of heroes are the underdogs. We look at great individual comebacks as well as team comebacks. We will look at controversy in all its forms and the rivals that elevate a sport, and the fans who undermine it. This book is for sports buffs, and those with just a passing interest, as we will grow to understand what it is that makes sport so special.
