There's an interesting story in the new issue of The Sporting News. The theme (and cover story) is called "Dirty Jobs" and its about the not always pleasant behind-the-scenes world of sports. Dennis Dillon contributes a short but fascinating feature on Tennessee Titans' national coordinator of scouting C.O. Brocato and how he spent the hours after last months NFL draft frantically trying to help the team scoop up some of the undrafted free agents on their short list.
I am a longtime football fan and a draft fanatic, but there are things in the story which surprised me, most especially just how tight some teams are with a few thousand dollars in bonus money when they've just locked themselves into spending tens of millions of dollars on high draft choices.
It's a very interesting piece andyou're gonna want to read the one about the hockey dentist as well.
This issue should be on the newsstands for several more days.
