It's Hard to Be One is a book about two aspects of life; Sports and Christianity. The author delves into how sports became a big part of this writer's life due to the author's father. If you're a sports fan, you will absolutely love this book; running the gamut from baseball to boxing; from football to basketball, and beyond. Perhaps the memories in this book, may jog some memories of your own team.
It's Hard to Be One takes aim at the suffering and distress of fans who root for teams that go nowhere season after season. That exasperation is shown in humor and heartache. Much of the beginning of the writing is about the Boston Red Sox, the author's father's favorite team. For almost 70 years, the author's dad was a Red Sox fan until his death. From 1919 to 2003, this club seemed to be snakebit, particularly by the New York Yankees. In 1919, Red Sox owner, Harry Frazee sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees and "The Curse of the Bambino" was born which, haunted Boston for decades.
The other part of It's Hard to Be One addresses Christianity in this fallen world. Far from being the ideal Christian, the writer's walk with God was practically nil. Learning more about Jesus, the author wanted non-Christians to know about the love of Christ, but was thwarted by ridicule and the rejection of non-believers.
The parallel between Sports and Christianity is remarkable. Both have faith, trials, frustration, glory, long-suffering and joy. However, sports emotions are fleeting; i.e., temporal. Christianity is eternal. That's where the similarity ends. When a Christian leaves God's green earth, there's no more trials, frustration and long-suffering. We have glory, joy and peace with our loving Lord forever! Enjoy the read, and may the best team win. By the way, it already has!
