How to Rig the NCAA Basketball Championship for Fun and Profit
Do you think that rigging the NCAA Championship can’t happen? Think again. A college referee with troubles on and off the basketball court decided this is the exact solution to all of his problems. And he intended to make millions of dollars in the process.
After years of refining his skills to become one of college basketball best officials, Stanley Osborn became disillusioned by the constant abuse of refs by fans, coaches, and media. Also troubling was the exploitation of the kids, the frequent cheating in recruiting and academics, and the enormous amount of gambling especially on the season ending NCAA tournament. The game's many problems prompted a life-altering decision of applying his officiating skills to influencing the outcome of games--without, of course, attracting any attention.

Curse? There Ain't No Stinking Chicago Cubs Curse
This collection of eleven entertaining, thought-provoking stories about sports and the games people play is not your average book of short stories. From baseball, golf, and tennis to bocce ball, blackjack, and Scrabble, the stories in this book 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. Curse? There Ain’t No Stinking Cub Curse and Other Stories about Sports and Gamesmanship is a collaborative effort that brings both a male and female perspective to what’s funny, what’s ironic, about the way we compete.
