Sports Illustrated 2002 Sports Almanac (Sports Illustrated Sports Almanac, 2002)

There's a reason the hardcover history of Sports Illustrated is called The Franchise . In the arena of sports journalism, it is the franchise, the way, say Greg Maddux is for the Braves, Brett Favre for the Packers, or Michael Jordan for the Bulls. Sports Illustrated's annual Sports Almanac, now in its seventh season, is a comprehensive collection of sport-by-sport results, awards, statistics, and records, but it wouldn't be Sports Illustrated if it just stuck to the numbers. The magazine's writers tackle their respective beats with solid overview essays, including one that shows you the money--and where it went in 1997. Other features, such as "They Said It" and "Scorecard," represent oddities that are woven throughout to raise the level of what is essentially a first-rate reference into an entertainingly readable one.
