A vital book for any sports fan in the twenty-first century. -- Mike Duncan, author of A Hero of Two Worlds Modern fandom is rubbish, and Calcaterra explains why, but in so doing, also shows us the way out of our desensitized, corporate, laundry-hugging ways. -- Keith Law, senior baseball writer for The Athletic
