Careers When this column took the position during the Olympics that it would be absurd for Paul Hamm to return his gold medal, reaction generally fell along international lines. E-mailers identifying themselves as European typically wrote that the take exemplified everything that was wrong with America. Yet with some exceptions, Americans were OK with the premise. Such feedback didn't strike me as political so much as reflective of the way different cultures view sporting events. Generally speaking, Americans accept blown calls as part of the game. They might not like it when it happens, but they take it and move on. (A noted exception is the 19-year obsession with umpire Don Denkinger by some St. Louis fans. Yes, he badly missed a call in Game 6 of the 1985 World Series, but all liability rests with the Cardinals for Kansas City's 11-0 victory in Game 7. Get over it, already.).

    Extractions: Not that I was trying to follow European soccer, but I was sitting on the couch minding my business when I noticed that a group of international students were following something on the TV. It was a Champions League battle - a season-long footy tournament between the best teams in Europe. So big, in fact, that ESPN2 was broadcasting it here. I knew a little about what was going on. For instance, I had heard of Oliver Kahn, the goalkeeper of Bayern Munich. He had ratty, unmanageable blond hair that would have been stylish in the 1970s. Kahn didn't have a very fun day, giving up four goals as the Londoners won the first leg of their home-and-home.

    Extractions: The study of men and the medicalization of everyday life details how an established masculine identity (i.e., the strong, silent, youthful, dominant, aggressive, and muscular male), is not an easily attained or privileging status. Rather, it is a perceptively unattainable cultural ideal against which many men anxiously monitor and critically judge their identities through daily physical regimen and rationalized self-presentations. Of central concern in this public discussion are the motives men express regarding their involvement in these body practices. Also addressed is the degree to which men rely on scientific intervention into cultural problems of masculinity, yet have only minimal understandings of the actual science underpinning these types of procedures.

    Extractions: Introduction [HTML] or [PDF format] Search within this book at Google Print Soccer is the world's favorite pastime, a passion for billions around the globe. In the United States, however, the sport is a distant also-ran behind football, baseball, basketball, and hockey. Why is America an exception? And why, despite America's leading role in popular culture, does most of the world ignore American sports in return? Offside is the first book to explain these peculiarities, taking us on a thoughtful and engaging tour of America's sports culture and connecting it with other fundamental American exceptionalisms. In so doing, it offers a comparative analysis of sports cultures in the industrial societies of North America and Europe. The authors argue that when sports culture developed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, nativism and nationalism were shaping a distinctly American self-image that clashed with the non-American sport of soccer. Baseball and football crowded out the game. Then poor leadership, among other factors, prevented soccer from competing with basketball and hockey as they grew. By the 1920s, the United States was contentedly isolated from what was fast becoming an international obsession. The book compares soccer's American history to that of the major sports that did catch on. It covers recent developments, including the hoopla surrounding the 1994 soccer World Cup in America, the creation of yet another professional soccer league, and American women's global preeminence in the sport. It concludes by considering the impact of soccer's growing popularity as a recreation, and what the future of sports culture in the country might say about U.S. exceptionalism in general.
