Book Detail: You Might Need a Jacket -
This delightful book contains nearly two hundred stories and little
anecdotes, chronicling the activities of “Straitjacket Parents,” which
is the term created to describe these overzealous sports’ parental
units. Some of these stories may be hard to believe, but they are all
true. They range from the funny and cute to the strange and truly
bizarre. Most of them are of the humorous nature, but others take on a
more ominous tone. Earl Austin Jr. - In twenty-two years of covering amateur sports in the St. Louis area, Austin has virtually seen it all from the sidelines and now he is sharing some of those funny stories with you in his new publication. Be ready to laugh out loud. He is the author of "The PHL in the STL" The Public High League: A St. Louis Basketball Legacy. A resident of Ferguson, Mo., Austin is the sports editor of the St. Louis American, one of the leading black newspapers in the country. Earl has been covering sports in the St. Louis metropolitan area for 22 years. He is also a local sports historian who is a frequent guest on local radio and television talk shows.
