"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

 A Football Player's Guide to Love
By the Argyle West Football Team

"Love.  Well, you see it's, uh, sort of, you know, kinda like when...Hey, can we talk about this later?"
(Page 10)

Love, Football, and Other Contact Sports is another book that I discovered while making my reading list for my Books & Related Materials for Young Adults class.  It was one of the books listed under the Sports column that we could pick for our list.  Sports is not a genre I often read.  I suppose it's cliche to say it's because I'm a girl, but I've never had a lot of interest in sports.  But the title caught my interest with the world LOVE!  And so far it is very funny!  I'd suggest this book, if, like me, you don't read many Sports books; it will change your mind.
