Book excerpt: Matt Gaffney, who pleased word-loving fans of the links with his Golf Crosswords, now takes on the entire sports world. He's edited 50 all-new puzzles, so basketball, baseball, football, hockey, soccer, tennis, skating, and even the Olympic Games come in for their share of crossword glory. Each puzzle has a clever heading, including Team Statistics, The Game of Love, Cooperstown Zoo, Poolside, Gridiron Grouping, A Pro's Conclusion, and You Make the Call. The clues will have collectors of sports trivia searching their memories for the answer to such questions as "Long-haired NBA guard Steve," "Melissa of Monday Night Football," and "Home to the USHL's Lancers." Answers: Nash, Stark, and Omaha.
