It’s almost like the entire sport is only for fun and everything is fake :)
mcgraw's extremely honest in here, though...it's a surprisingly good account, lives up to the hype. some sheik/early 60s detroit anecdotes not found elsewhere
I've very happy to hear you liked the book. I'll pass those remarks along to Buggsy. :)
It keeps getting better. No punches pulled
I've read everything that hits the market in this genre and this is one of the best I've encountered so far. Extremely good info on payouts etc.
Also that picture of him in the anti-tax ad is just phenomenal
He gave me the digital copies of his scrapbooks to help with the interview/writing process. He kept EVERYTHING from 1968 through 1982. It made it very easy to ask relevant questions and get some entertaining answers.
