An excerpt from book on problems with UW football - fullmetal - 11-08-2010

It\'s a decently-long excerpt from the book "Scoreboard, baby," which is self-tagged as "a story of college football, crime, and complicity."

Essentially, this seems to be a corpus built around those Seattle newspaper exposes on the deliberately overlooked crimes of the UW football team from earlier this decade.  The author of Friday Night Lights apparently called it "the most harrowing book [he has] ever read about college sports."

Hey, that sounds like UW football.
