Attention Sports fans! Dave Zirin at Politics and Prose
Bad Sports: How Owners Are Ruining the Games We Love rails against the arrogance of team owners of professional sports leagues, who care more about profit and prestige than athleticism and old-fashion fan fun. Sports columnist for The Nation and author of A People’s History of Sports in the United States, the liberal Dave Zirin isn’t one to mince words. Monday, Aug. 16, at 7 p.m. Politics and Prose, 5015 Connecticut Ave. NW. Call 202-364-1919 or visit politics-prose.com.
