    <body><![CDATA[This is a perfectly enjoyable little book of answers to questions like &quot;Why do they call it a hat trick?&quot; or &quot;Why do pitchers pitch off a mound?&quot; The authors call clubhouses, halls of fame, and old timers in their search for these facts. In many cases the answer is &quot;It's traditional&quot; or &quot;Nobody knows&quot; which is fine with me. <br/><br/>The smart alec tone cracks me up, as do the aphorisms that accompany each question, like &quot;Where the ice-cream truck of fact hears the childish shrieks of conjecture, slows - then speeds on.&quot;  ]]></body>
