American football is a tremendous source of entertainment and a key part of our culture - but we were reminded again this week of the extreme danger the game poses to those who play following the traumatic injury sustained by Buffalo Bills wide defensive back Damar Hamlin. Patrick Hruby, deputy editor at Washingtonian magazine and author of the Hreal Sports newsletter joins the show to discuss the state of the game - from a health and safety perspective, yes, as well as a cultural one. What are we to think about big-time football? And is it time that we retire this joyous, dangerous game, from our entertainment menus?
Nesta entrevista, Patrick Hruby nos conta como foi o início da sua vida profissional e o momento em que se mudou para os Estados Unidos, onde foi fazer um MBA. Depois, trabalhou por anos na Google, no Vale do Silício, e, de volta ao Brasil, no Facebook. Hoje é CEO da Movile, uma aceleradora de empresas de tecnologia e startups.

Seeing as we were joined by prolific sports and political journalist Patrick Hruby, we decided to dive into several significant topics. After spending about the first half hour forecasting what 2021 might look like for NCAA athletics — including what a conservative 6-3 edge Supreme Court implies could happen in the "amateurism" cases — we move to discussing Hruby's research on negative outcomes for black coaches in the NFL. We recorded this conversation weeks before the EA Sports relaunch announcement in early February. Interestingly, however, we steer the conversation toward the Ed O'Bannon case and the video game company's decision to settle with the players for $40 million almost a decade ago. Look for that part of the conversation around 33:00. Want to help us grow Suits and Sidelines? Please share our podcast with three of your most interesting friends or connections. Already done that?

In this episode of League of Fans' Sports Forum podcast we talk with Patrick Hruby, a journalist who has done extensive research and in-depth writing on the topic of brain trauma in sports, most notably football. Patrick believes brain trauma is our country's most important contemporary sports issue. We touch on brain injuries and CTE at the NFL and college levels, however, the focus of our discussion is on the millions of kids playing football at the youth and high school levels. Patrick and I talk about how repetitive sub-concussive impact can be as damaging long-term as multiple concussions and how it's very unlikely that a high-tech helmet will ever be developed that will protect the brain inside the skull. Our discussion moves on to other sports in which brain injuries can occur, like hockey and soccer, and why football presents unique challenges. We close with Patrick discussing current scientific efforts to develop a way to detect CTE in the living and what that could mean for football's concussion crisis.

Patrick Hruby is probably best known as the sports journalist who writes about all the unpopular issues in sports. Whether it's concussions in football, amateurism in the NCAA, or cities subsidizing sports stadiums, Hruby writes about the intersection of politics and sports for Vice (among other places). Patrick joins Brian to talk about how sports can serve as a gateway drug to talk about bigger issues in society, and why “stick to sports” is such a false position. They also talk about the generational use of social media, why curiosity is such an important trait for journalists and why he sometimes feels like Darth Vader at the end of Rogue One.
First, we hear from Patrick Hruby, a contributing editor at VICE Sports, who makes the case against High School Football in his latest piece, “Friday Night Lights Out.” Then, I tell the story of 2016 in Sports & Struggle, and finish with a ‘Just Stand Up’ award to the Women’s Basketball Team at UC Santa Barbara their Athletic Director John McCutcheon who stood up for the team’s right to protest.Patrick Hruby: website, twitterFriday Night Lights Out: The Case For Abolishing High School Footballhttps://sports.vice.com/en_us/article/friday-night-lights-out-the-case-for-abolishing-high-school-footballUCSB AD supports Gaucho women's basketball team's right to kneel during National Anthemhttp://www.keyt.com/sports/ucsb-ad-supports-gaucho-womens-basketball-teams-right-to-kneel-during-national-anthem/192889257Zirin column, 2016 in Sports: Joy and Resistance While the World Burnedhttps://www.thenation.com/article/2016-in-sports-joy-and-resistance-while-the-world-burned—http://www.edgeofsportspodcast.com | http://twitter.com/edgeofsports | http://fb.com/edgeofsportspod | email us: edgeofsports@slate.com | Edge of Sports hotline: 401-428-3343 (EDGE)—music: Definition - Black Star | Everybody Dies - J.

It’s that time of year when the panels of experts on sports call-in shows shout opinions on the best and worst of the past twelve months. To finish the year, New Books in Sports offers its own panels of experts. But rather than arguing over the biggest matches and plays of the year, they’ll share their insights into some of the most acute problems facing sport today. In the last year, the National Football League has had to contend with a growing body of evidence showing brain damage in former players. To learn how these discoveries are affecting football, from the professional ranks down to the youth level, and what they mean for the future of the game, we’ll hear from journalist Patrick Hruby and Michael Oriard, a longtime scholar of football and a former NFL player. We’ll turn from American football to the world game, and look at the impact of last June’s demonstrations in Brazil. Will the political upheaval in Brazil affect the FIFA World Cup in 2014, and will it change the decisions of FIFA and other organizations in awarding sports mega-events? We put those questions to economist Victor Matheson, Rio-based geographer and journalist Christopher Gaffney, and Tim Vickery, the BBC’s football correspondent in South America. And after a year of bad news that spilled from the sports pages to the front pages, we raise the question of whether our fandom compromises our sense of morality. We hear from journalist and author Gideon Haigh, philosopher Heather Reid, and religion writer Tom Krattenmaker about the toll that sport takes on moral character. And because this is New Books in Sports, we also need to get recommendations on some good reads. We’ll hear from David Steele of The Sporting News and cricket writers Bernard Whimpress and David Mutton about their favorite books of the last year. Learn more about your ad choices.

One of the most crowded sections of the sports library is the one devoted to autobiographies and memoirs. The shelves here are constantly adding new titles, by both legends and bit players. For instance, the past week has brought the release of new memoirs by Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes and Olympic rower Katherine Grainger, as well as books by Dave Hanson, one the Hanson brothers of the cult hockey film Slap Shot, and some guy named Ace Cacchiotti, the keeper of the film archive of old NFL games. We also find in these stacks some of the most acclaimed sports books ever written, like Ken Dryden’s The Game, Nick Hornby’s Fever Pitch, and Beyond a Boundary by C.L.R. James, to name just a few. Yes, sports memoirs can be tedious rehearsals of sports platitudes. But, as we learn in this episode, there are quite a few that offer vivid perspectives and thoughtful reflections on the games we watch. In this special seminar episode of New Books in Sports we take a close look at sports memoirs. We learn about the art of the fan memoir from Dave Roberts, author of the acclaimed books 32 Programmes and The Bromley Boys, and from John Harms, founder and editor of the Footy Almanac, a popular site for fan writing in Australia. Literary scholar James Pipkin looks at the themes and literary devices common to the autobiographies of American athletes, while historian Robert Edelman tells us what he finds in the memoirs of sport stars from the old Soviet Union. We get recommendations of favorite sports memoirs from Glasgow journalist Teddy Jamieson and historians of British sport Victoria Dawson and Daryl Leeworthy. Meanwhile, Patrick Hruby of Sports on Earth tells us why he’s not a fan of athlete autobiographies. We hear from Sharda Ugra, senior editor at ESPN Cricinfo, about her experiences as a ghostwriter. And long-distance swimmer Lynne Cox talks about researching and writing her books, including her best-selling memoir Swimming to Antarctica. As with our other seminar episodes–on European football, the Olympics, and sports books for children–this is twice the length of a normal edition of New Books in Sports. But with more smart guests, and more sharp insights, and more good books, it’s worth a listen. Consider it a crash course in sports literature–packed into less time than the game of the week.

One of the most crowded sections of the sports library is the one devoted to autobiographies and memoirs. The shelves here are constantly adding new titles, by both legends and bit players. For instance, the past week has brought the release of new memoirs by Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes and Olympic rower Katherine Grainger, as well as books by Dave Hanson, one the Hanson brothers of the cult hockey film Slap Shot, and some guy named Ace Cacchiotti, the keeper of the film archive of old NFL games. We also find in these stacks some of the most acclaimed sports books ever written, like Ken Dryden’s The Game, Nick Hornby’s Fever Pitch, and Beyond a Boundary by C.L.R. James, to name just a few. Yes, sports memoirs can be tedious rehearsals of sports platitudes. But, as we learn in this episode, there are quite a few that offer vivid perspectives and thoughtful reflections on the games we watch. In this special seminar episode of New Books in Sports we take a close look at sports memoirs. We learn about the art of the fan memoir from Dave Roberts, author of the acclaimed books 32 Programmes and The Bromley Boys, and from John Harms, founder and editor of the Footy Almanac, a popular site for fan writing in Australia. Literary scholar James Pipkin looks at the themes and literary devices common to the autobiographies of American athletes, while historian Robert Edelman tells us what he finds in the memoirs of sport stars from the old Soviet Union. We get recommendations of favorite sports memoirs from Glasgow journalist Teddy Jamieson and historians of British sport Victoria Dawson and Daryl Leeworthy.
