I subscribed to Sports Illustrated for a few years, and reading Rick Reilly's column was always my favorite. He tells some great stories in just a few hundred words. I lost interest in his work after he moved to ESPN, but I really enjoyed this collection from his prime. In one column that wasn't included here, Reilly wrote, “Sports isn't an escape from life–it's woven into the fabric of it.” That is the essence of why I love sports and why I love the stories Reilly shares.
