Praise for Rick Reilly "Rick Reilly is one of the funniest humans on the planet, an indescribable amalgam of Dave Barry, Jim Murray, and Lewis Grizzard, with the timing of Jay Leno and the wit of Johnny Carson."- Publisher's Weekly "Don't get started reading this book. It will take three burly men to pull you away from it."-Bob Costas, NBC commentator for Missing Links "You don't need to know your bogeys from your birdies to find at least three laughs per page in this novel."- The New York Times Book Review for Missing Links "Snappy prose, believable characters, and the funniest take on blue-collar hacking and gambling since Dan Jenkins's The Glory Game at Goat Hill ...it's social satire and pure irreverence that keep this story in the groove."- Los Angeles Times for Missing Links "Reilly could write about lawn bowling and make it funny, informative, and entertaining. You never know what the next page is going to bring." - Los Angeles Times for Who's Your Caddy? "You might not think the story of a man carrying Tommy Aaron's golf bag for 18 holes could make you laugh out loud, but you'd be wrong . Who's Your Caddy? is funny enough to coax a chuckle out of Vijay Singh. A great way to read about the game-and its people, too." - Charlotte Observer "You don't have to know much about golf to get a kick out of this book. Reilly learns a little about golf, and a lot about people." - The Buffalo News for Who's Your Caddy? "[Reilly] knows and delivers a good story when he sees it . . . readers can't help but be touched by the sheer ingenuity of many of these games and the sheer courage of many of the participants."- Booklist for Sports from Hell "Reilly was the closest thing sportswriting ever had to a rock star." --Chris Chase, USAToday.com "Often, Reilly's is so good, it almost is painful for sportswriters like me to read him." --Ed Sherman, The Sherman Report "Reilly made you think, made you cry, made you LOL, made you get to know a subject, made you love sports and hate sports and love him and hate him. Above all, he made you read him, every column." --Jay Marriotti, SportsTalk Florida, Praise for Rick Reilly "Rick Reilly is one of the funniest humans on the planet, an indescribable amalgam of Dave Barry, Jim Murray, and Lewis Grizzard, with the timing of Jay Leno and the wit of Johnny Carson."- Publisher's Weekly "Don't get started reading this book.

Synopsis
In this hilariously funny essay collection, ESPN columnist RickReilly com-piles the best of his sports columns-essays that includehis expert opinion on athlete tattoos, NFL cheerleaders, and even running with the bulls in Pamplona. Rick Reilly has no compunction telling readers, in his quick-witted style, how he really feels about some of the most popular sports figures of our time. Wondering about quarterback Jay Cutler? "Cutler is the kind of guy you just want to pick up and throw into a swimming pool, which is exactly what Peyton Manning and two linemen did one year at the Pro Bowl." Or how about Tiger Woods? "Sometimes you wonder where Tiger Woods gets his public-relations advice. Gary Busey?" But for every brazen takedown, Reilly has written a heartwarming story of the power of sports to heal the wounded and lift the downtrodden- the young Ravens fan with cancer who called the plays for a few-victorious-games in 2012, or the onetime top NFL recruit who was finally exonerated after serving five years for a crime he didn't commit. Whether he makes you laugh, cry, or just gets under your skin, Rick Reilly is sure to offer a unique and hilarious perspective on your favorite golf players, football teams, MVPs, and more. Rick Reilly has been called "one of the funni-est humans on the planet-an indescribable amalgam of Dave Barry, Jim Murray, and Lewis Grizzard, with the timing of Jay Leno and the wit of Johnny Carson" ( Publishers Weekly ). With a new introduction and updates from Reilly on his most talked-about col-umns, Tiger, Meet My Sister... makes the perfect gift for sports fans of all kinds., In this hilariously funny essay collection, ESPN columnist Rick Reilly com-piles the best of his sports columns--essays that include his expert opinion on athlete tattoos, NFL cheerleaders, and even running with the bulls in Pamplona.

- v***v (2086)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
