This is about the football-playing members of the two schools who, although playing in the same game, turned out entirely different from each other and from the supposed mission of high school sports. The coaches of the two squads were severe, but one of the coaches of the losers found some humor in this grab bag of players he had inherited. The book traces the happenings on the gridiron of a small school football team that cannot win a game. Their winless situation is created by lack of size, leadership, and talent. There is a rough side to the treatment parceled out by the two coaches methods, and at least in one case, there is some humor involved. The quarterback of the losing team was the books author, who had an insiders look at the game as his dad was the teams former coach. The author spices up the story by exploring sensitive topics, including interracial dating, teen smoking and drinking, and premarital sex, not to mention the woman beating, which led to a campus murder.

Even before the New York Mets began the 1992 season, they had set a critical record: the highest payroll ever for a major-league team, $45 million. With players Bobby Bonilla, Vince Coleman, Bret Saberhagen, and Howard Johnson, winning another championship seemed a mere formality. The 1992 New York Mets never made it to Cooperstown, however. Veteran newspapermen Bob Klapisch and John Harper reveal the extraordinary inside story of the Mets? decline and fall?with the sort of detail and uncensored quotes that never run in a family newspaper. From the sex scandals that plagued the club in Florida to the puritanical, no-booze rules of manager Jeff Torborg, from bad behavior on road trips to the downright ornery practical ?jokes? that big boys play, The Worst Team Money Could Buy is a grand-slam classic.
