Excerpt
The best sportswriters know this. They avoid the exhausted synonyms and strive for freshness elsewhere in their sentences.
What keeps most sportswriters from writing good English is the misapprehension that they shouldn't be trying to.
What makes them special is their humanity.
What gives the article its depth is that it's the work of a writer, not a sportswriter.
Remember that athletes are men and women who become part of our lives during the season, acting out our dreams or filling some other need for us, and we want that bond to be honored. Hold the hype and give us heroes who are believable.
Those are the values to look for when you write about sport: people and places, time and transition. Here's an enjoyable list of the kind of people every sport comes furnished with.
