My favorite Klosterman essay is ""George Will vs. Nick Hornby" from Sex, drugs, and cocoa puffs. His rip on soccer is hilarious and true. I'll have to check out "Paper Lion".

What a great book...not only about football, but about so many other things as well. I loved the book...have you seen the movie? Should I not bother? I too enjoyed Chuck's football essay very much; one of the best in that collection. I also thought about advertising George Plimpton's masterpieces of participatory journalism and sports, starting with "Paper Lion." Keith,

Don't let the Sandra Bullock movie put you off, it's an great analysis of the evolution of the LT position in football. Chuck Klosterman has a great essay on football in his new book Eating the Dinosaur. The blind side : evolution of a game by Michael Lewis is an excellent football book.
