Download or read book Big Time written by Chris Warner and published by Wagon Publishing. This book was released on 2023-04-10 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Big Time” A novel set at Louisiana State University in the Fall of 1988 By Chris Warner Louis Stansbury Underwood has never felt more alive. He is on the precipice of realizing his boyhood dream of attending the Ole War Skule in Baton Rouge, the Bayou State’s flagship, Louisiana State University, like his father and maternal grandfather before him. On a full academic scholarship, he’s spent the summer after his high school graduation as a ten-hour a day roughneck on a remote oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico, giving him the money and moxie he needs to pledge a fraternity, move into a dorm and begin anew; living life as a young adult with a promising future for the first time, forever free from what he considers his shrinking home town’s many shortcomings, restrictions and peculiar confines. For lucky Louis, and his extended, simple, loving Cajun family and friends, he’s going “big time”—to LSU (pronounced Ellishoe); and there’s no looking back—except maybe for that special someone he’s leaving behind. The sky is the limit for Louis. His academic pedigree, rugged athleticism and boyish smile make him sought after among Greek circles, as the fraternities want him as much as the coquettish sorority girls want a handsome date to the first home football game. After much consideration, Louis pledges a fraternity, enrolls in classes, and meets the gorgeous college girls of his fanciful dreams. He is consumed by classes and the many socials and exchanges, mixing on and off campus with interesting people; like his potluck dorm roommate, too an ardent scholarship freshman, from New Orleans, also pledging one of the smaller fraternities on campus—a black one—and despite their subtle differences, they form a fast friendship and a bond that will change everything. The Kappa Alpha Order on campus, along with the Kappa Sigma Fraternity, two Old Row stalwarts, annually hold the Charity Bowl Fundraiser, a football game played under the lights, with paid referees, pitting the two fraternity squads against one another—pads, helmets, cleats, onlookers, refreshments and cheerleaders included. For each of the young, equipped and uniformed men and eager spectators it is an opportunity to relive their recent past, and again play and enjoy the game they practiced and embraced with the usual zeal and vigor during their high school days; it is a singular chance to again excel at a tough, physical game; to assert one’s dominance and impress the ladies, as everyone loves a winner. Understanding this, Louis and his newfound friend offer their fraternity officers a winning proposal. Louis and his roommate see opportunity in a challenge—their upstart fraternities will join unlikely forces and take on a super team comprising the collective best players of the two regular foes, Kappa Alpha and Kappa Sigma, creating much more campus and local media interest and potentially a much bigger symbolic take for the winners. Keen interest in the novel contest spurs a hard sellout at a bigger venue, everyone begging the obvious question: “Can an all-white team take on and defeat a team with black players?” Big Time is a raucous, romantic, retro tale seeking to draw semblance to Southern living, failed politics and pop culture from the not-so-distant past; now a faded, unframed memory.

But Sam has never had a place to call home or someone to go home to. Consuelo Zamora has been serving as a missionary nurse, but her work has led her to be forced to work with some South American drug lords in order to provide medicine for the common people. After being rescued by Sam and his Home Team, Consuelo settles into a new position in Olympia, Washington, to work with a community center there. But somehow, trouble always follows her, and Sam Anthem seems to always be nearby to save the day. When Sam is forced on a two-month vacation, he is introduced to a former covert ops soldier-turned pastor. But the vacation takes a turn when the Home Team comes under attack. As the team fights to stay alive against an unknown adversary, Sam begins to wonder if there is more to life than just the job. With his life on the line, Sam must decide between the job or his newfound faith and possible love.

Download or read book The Team America Loves to Hate written by Charles R. Warner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the animosity towards the New York Yankees among fans of Major League Baseball and what that revilement says about the game, its fans, and America itself. For anyone wondering what exactly fuels Yankee hatred—and for those who think they know quite well, thank you very much—The Team America Loves to Hate: Why Baseball Fans Despise the New York Yankees is a revealing look at the relationship between the guys in pinstripes and the rest of the baseball world. Ranging beyond the legendary New York-Boston feud, The Team America Loves to Hate taps into the world of Yankee-loathing by listening to fans of all other teams—from the Mets to the Mariners, from Anaheim to Baltimore. There are some surprises—judging by the number of Yankee-hating episodes submitted, Pittsburgh seems to be the most aggrieved city, while the Red Sox are now as much hated as their hated rivals. Along the way, the book offers some serious insights into the Yankees themselves, the country's relationship to New York City before and after 9/11, our long-running love affair with sports, and our decidedly fickle feelings about success.
Download or read book Go Big Red written by Mike Babcock and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1998-08-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nebraska has enjoyed thirty-six consecutive winning seasons, made twenty-nine consecutive bowl appearances, and won five national championships, including three in the last four seasons. During that time, the Cornhuskers have had just two head coaches, Bob Devaney and Tom Osborne. Without question, this is the golden era of Cornhusker football, and Go Big Red is a celebration of that indisputable fact. It is much more than a trivia book-- it goes beyond the hefty and comprehensive media guides published each season by the Nebraska Sports Information Office. The book covers Nebraska football in a way no other publication has, with personality profiles, anecdotes, and original research, as well as questions of fact and trivia, some of which will test even the most devoted and knowledgeable Cornhusker fans. Some things you'll remember. There is a section devoted to the best of Broderick Thomas, the loquacious outside linebacker. And there are also some things you won't remember, or things you might not have known. Can you name all of the assistant coaches on Osborne's first staff in 1973? Can you list Nebraska's starters for the 1941 Rose Bowl game? Do you know how the "Blackshirt" tradition began? Devaney was a master storyteller, and the book includes a humorous story or two of his. The program became a haven for walk-ons under Osborne, and the book includes an all-walk-on team. Though Nebraska is enjoying its greatest successes now, Cornhusker football was king long ago. And the book offers insight into that past glory, achieved by the likes of "Jumbo" Stiehm, Ed Weir, and Guy Chamberlin. All-American Trev Albert, the Butkus Award winner in 1993, has expressed the meaing of Cornhusker football in the introduction, which is an integral part of the book's experience. Reading Go Big Red isn't the same as sitting in Memorial Stadium, awash in red on game day. But it's the next best thing.
