Bristol Stomp

According to ESPN: The Uncensored History (Taylor Publishing Co., $24.95), which is being published on April 5, Bristol University is—or at least used to be—one helluva party school. "It was not unusual," writes author Michael Freeman, "for anchor Gary Miller, after more than a few beers, to shave his rear end at a party to loosen everyone up."
Forced to rely too heavily on ex-employees, Freeman provides an unflattering portrayal, an account more "boo" than "yah." ESPN deserved to be treated better. So did Freeman.
