Former Gov. and U.S. Sen. George Allen has signed a contract to publish a book drawing parallels between politics and sports.Just to be helpful, here are a few possible chapter titles.
The book, "The Triumph of Character: What Washington Can Learn from the World of Sports," is scheduled to be released by Regnery Publishing next June.
*"Using The 'N Word' Habitually: How Not To Succeed (Or Make Friends) In Sports Or In Politics"
*"There Are No Cowboys In Virginia, But That Never Stopped Me From Pretending To Be One"
*"Slower Than A Wounded Sea Slug: How The U.S. Senate Is Just Like A Washington Nationals Game"
*"Running For President Before You've Won Reelection To The U.S. Senate: On Getting Overconfident And Losing A Huge Lead In Sports Or Politics"
*"The Fish Rots From The Head Down: How A Political Campaign Or Sports Team Is Only As Good (Or In My Case Bad) As the Guy At The Top"
