Tapping into the rich tradition and exceptional storytelling of the Associated Press, Profiles of the Game delivers an outstanding collection of sports reporting that will capture the attention of sports fans and non-fans alike. Culled from the archives, readers will experience original sports writing about people, events and newsworthy moments in sports history. Readers will get to experience the same stories their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents read in the sports pages years before them. Profiles of the Game is not your typical sports fact book or encyclopedia. Profiles of the Game delivers a rich story experience, taking readers back in time to when the stories were originally written. Firsthand experience is captured in these articles written by writers who witnessed the event or moment and interviewed or had strong relationships with the participants. Just like the great Joe Namath who guaranteed a Jets win in Super Bowl III, "I guarantee" all sports fans will enjoy Profiles of the Game.
