Kareem Calls the Shots in Sports
Four recent sports stories that caught my eye
“Kareem Calls the Shots in Sports” is a regular feature in which I select sports stories that I think help define some significant aspect of sports, whether it’s athletes breaking records or athletes speaking out or athletes making mistakes.

However, I have been on the road a lot lately, most recently interviewing the first Black Attorney General of the U.S., Eric Holder, onstage in front of a packed auditorium. Exhausting. So, I decided to present these four sports stories in writing.
