Damian Does Book Reviews

Damian Penny reviews Mike Freeman's Bloody Sundays, a book about the NFL:

In the end, after airing much of the NFL's dirty laundry, Freeman's love for the sport remains obvious. He even ends Bloody Sundays with "99 reasons why football is better than baseball," most of which are true, and some of which are quite funny. ("Baseball has purists. Purists are whiners pining about the good old days before wild-card playoff games and the time when those damn colored folk had their own league.")

For anyone with even the slightest interest in America's real national pastime, Bloody Sundays is an essential read.

Well, I'll certainly be looking to pick this one up. Thanks for the review, Damian!
