Rick Reilly is the back-page columnist for ESPN the Magazine, as well as the host of Homecoming, a monthly interview show for ESPN. He previously spent 23 years as a sportswriter for Sports Illustrated, where he wrote the popular "Life of Reilly" column.

His latest book, "Sports From Hell" is the result of his three-year search for the dumbest sports competition in the world. He visits Writers Talk to discuss the uniform required for Ferret Legging and why NOT to breathe through your nose while participating in the World Sauna Championship.
