Curse? There Ain't No Stinking Chicago Cub Curse and Other Stories
about Sports and Gamesmanship is a humorous and thought-provoking
collection of eleven short stories about the games people play.
From baseball, golf, and tennis to bocce ball, blackjack, and
Scrabble, these games demonstrate the good and bad facets of the
human competitive spirit. A golfing womanizer takes the old adage,
"so much fun to be had, and so little time" just a bit too much to
heart; a woman comes up with a system for betting at the
racetrack-and wins every time; a pair of adult brothers revert to
childish competition to prove themselves; a woman searches for Mr.
Right on a "Scrabble date;" and the wily owner of the Cubs uses an
infamous curse in order to transform his team into a money-making
franchise. Human foibles are laid bare in this entertaining
collection, which brings both a male and a female perspective to
the humor and irony inherent in the ways we compete.
