Sports geek : a visual tour of sporting myths, debate and data
Minto, Rob2016
Books
Sport revolves around two things: narrative and numbers. You need the narrative, otherwise why would anyone care about sport? Rivalries, emotions and sporting legends all require it. But sport also needs numbers. Without them, we have no idea who has won. We need numbers to tell which team is top of the table, or who is the world champion. 'Sport Geek' is a visual and numerical tour through sporting debates and ideas.
