In The Heart of Motor City, One Superfan's Odyssey For The Ultimate Prize! Join Leo Steigenga, the ultimate Detroit Lions superfan, on a journey that transcends mere football fandom in Needs More Burritos by Ben Schulz. Leo has spent his life immersed in the agony and ecstasy of Lions football, a franchise known more for heartbreak than triumph. Yet, through Leo's eyes, we witness a tale of resilience, humor, and unwavering hope. Schulz masterfully blends dark humor with rich fantasy as Leo's obsession takes him on a bizarre odyssey through the streets of the Motor City. From tailgate parties to late-night radio rants, Leo's devotion knows no bounds. As the Lions face yet another season of dashed dreams, Leo's faith remains unshaken. But when fate finally smiles on Detroit, the city erupts in a celebration unlike any other. Needs More Burritos is more than a sports story; it's a testament to the human spirit and the enduring power of belief. With each page, readers will find themselves cheering alongside Leo, sharing in his triumphs and tribulations. Whether you're a die-hard sports fan or simply a lover of great storytelling, this book will captivate you from start to finish.

Sawtooth Waves
Twenty-five brief sketches of adventure, action and truth, the Sawtooth Waves are calling... Inspired by Stephen Crane and Carl Sandburg, author Ben Schulz observes the giant, clumsy forest and ponders what makes it tick. He usually passes by the perfectly pruned rose. The variety of his subjects is broad, held together by his love of color, imagery, and, at times, humor. The Sawtooth Waves are calling. These poems have rhythm. They are dreamlike and possess a certain rawness, like when you spend the afternoon interpreting a grainy Edwardian era photograph. Take a swim inside the waves and behold a fresh perspective on nature, art, human conflict, and beauty.

Social Exclusion, Power, and Video Game Play
While many books and articles are emerging on the new area of game studies and the application of computer games to learning, therapeutic, military and entertainment environments, few have attempted to contextualize the importance of virtual play within a broader social, cultural and political environment that raises the question of the significance of work, play, power and inequalities in the modern world. Many studies tend to concentrate on the content of virtual games, but few have questioned how power is produced or reproduced by publishers, gamers or even social media; how social exclusion (e.g., race, class, gender, etc.) in the virtual environments are reproduced from the real world; and how actors are able to use new media to transcend their fears, anxieties, prejudices and assumptions. The articles presented by the contributors in this volume represent cutting-edge research in the area of critical game play with the hope to draw attention to the need for more studies that are both sociological and critical.
