THE BATHROOM SPORTS QUOTE BOOK was con-

ceived during the fifth annual movement of National

Bathroom Reading Week. (Honest. There really is

such an event-- the second week of May every year.)

It is in keeping with this sit-down observance that this

book is presented.

You, the bathroom-reading sports fan, will be af-

forded quick relief with wit and wisdom about the

games people play. Inside, you ll find hundreds of

quips and quotes from front office figures (Branch

Rickey: "Luck is the residue of design") to the just

plain funny (YogiBerra: "I didn t say everything I said

I did").

Well documented is the fact that the average person

will spend seven years of his or her life in the bath-

room. I fervently hope that this lavatory literature will

helpyou to put some of that valuable time to good use.
