		<description><![CDATA[When it comes to the national pastime, female athletes find many doors closed despite laws designed to afford them equal opportunities. Marilyn Cohen chronicles these issues in her new book, No Girls in the Clubhouse: The Exclusion of Women from Baseball (McFarland). Although girls and women have played the game since the mid-19th century, their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the major complaints from fans and (especially) non-fans is that the games take too long. Don&#8217;t look at it as a lot of down time; instead perceive it as a chance to catch up on your reading. That&#8217;s why I love compilations such as those published by The Washington Post&#8216;s Thomas Boswell and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to an item in Sports Business Journal,  Bud Selig is the highest paid sports commissioner, pulling in over $18 million during fiscal year 2007.
