Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardcover. It's All About the Numbers: The Legends, Superstitions, and Culture Behind the DigitsMichael Jordan didn't choose #23 to become a legend. He chose it because his brother wore #45, and 45 divided by 2, rounded up, equals 23. That simple calculation-born from sibling rivalry and respect-changed sports history forever.Behind every jersey number is a story hiding in plain sight: the catcher who wears #12 to honor the twelve minutes his daughter survived without oxygen. The linebacker who paid $250,000 for two digits. The goalkeeper who chose #00 hoping for shutouts-and got exactly one. The player who built his entire brand on a girlfriend's miscount.From Rolexes to Porsches, from beer to college funds, athletes have traded everything for the right number. Some honor fallen heroes. Some follow superstitions. Some turn digits into hundred-million-dollar brands. And some discover too late they've been wearing the wrong number all along.Drawing on 350+ sources and featuring over 200 athletes-from Michael Jordan to Caitlin Clark-across baseball, basketball, football, hockey, and soccer, It's All About the Numbers connects scattered stories across a century of sports into a comprehensive narrative about what jersey numbers really mean: identity forged through tribute, negotiation, faith, family, and sometimes pure accident. You'll learn why Tom Brady settled for #12, how your brain processes athletes differently based on their numbers, and why some teams have banned #13 for decades while others embrace it as lucky.These are the stories of sports' most visible symbols-and proof that in athletics, as in life, the number on your back isn't decoration. It's destiny. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
