Learning Series: Sports Cheats, Frauds and Con Artists In-Person
Based on his soon to be released new book, Bob Ainsworth takes you on the trail of cheaters from ancient times to today, from baseball to Indy car racing to the card game of bridge. Many of you will recognize the stories from headlines in the sports pages or on ESPN. Some stories will surprise you for the audacity of the methods used to win at all costs. Cheating doesn’t just exist in major sports. It occurs everywhere that people compete, from fencing to boxing to chess. And it is pervasive, from little league baseball to colleges to the professional leagues to the Olympics and even to the Special Olympics.
