The System: The Glory and Scandal of Big-Time College Football | Jeff Benedict, Armen Keteyian

“From the blimp‘s-eye view high above sold-out Sun Life Stadium the helmets looked like metallic gold dots, bank after bank of thousand-watt halide lights adding an almost ethereal glow.”

From the book I‘m reading with my husband. We‘ve done bedtime stories for about 20 years, ever since he was dealing with stress at work and I read Winnie the Pooh to him, since you can‘t be stressed while hearing that.

The System: The Glory and Scandal of Big-Time College Football | Jeff Benedict, Armen Keteyian

So I'm not actually doing the #bookphotochallenge or #augustofpages. First, I'm lazy and second, I have no idea what's actually going on. 🤔 But! When I see sports books, I, the ridiculous sports fan, am all over it. I have a huge collection, but as they're mostly digital, I'll stick with this one. I'm realistic and live in SEC country; I get college sports are corrupt. This still blew my mind.

Gayan Oh how I love college sports. My team is in the ACC and it's less than 30 days until kickoff! GO CARDS! 8y

ImaginativeMom I'm an ACC girl, too!! I live down here in Alabama/Auburn country, but my heart is in the ACC. I would discuss affiliation, but it's very complicated! 8y

TheNextBook I blame my husband for my love for college sports. I was professional everything but now I watch more college basketball than anything. SEC all day! Go Cats. BBN! 8y

ImaginativeMom @TheNextBook My husband hates sports! I KNOW!! I'm working on my children. College basketball still takes over our house in season. Obsessed. 8y

TheNextBook @ImaginativeMom No!!!! My son loves to play and he'll watch sometimes. My husband and I have cable because of sports! 😂😂😂 come football season the tv stays on and I'm reading during commercial breaks. 8y

Gayan @TheNextBook Sounds like you might be a Kentucky girl? Louisville is my hometown so you know I go for the RED team. 😉 8y

TheNextBook @Gayan My husband is from Kentucky and I've been completely brainwashed to bleed blue. 8y

Gayan @TheNextBook The RED was totally my late brother's doing. I've had a UofL shirt in my wardrobe since I was a baby. 8y

Lynnsoprano Does this focus on SEC, or include other conferences? 8y

ImaginativeMom @Lynnsoprano As far as I recall, there's lots of SEC, but other conferences, too. 8y
