In Religion and Sports in American Culture , Jeffrey Scholes and Raphael Sassower explore the relationship between modern sports in America and religion. They argue that instead of looking at the relationship as marked by competition of cultural ascendency where either sports or religion will win out, it is more accurate and fruitful to view sports and religion as speaking a similar language. This way the respective merits and shortcomings of each discourse can be more fully understood.
