Rating: Summary: Mick Foley: Life's Babyface? Review: I respect Mick Foley as much as anyone in the wrestling business, both for the willing giving of his body and also his tremendous sense of humor. All of that comes through in this book as it is enthralling, easy to read and hard to put down. It is NOT a tell-all exposing the secrets of the wrestling business and if you are looking for more of a behind the scenes look I highly recommend "Pure Dynamite" written by Dynamite Kid. My lone criticism of this book stems from comments made by Shane Douglas that I tend to agree with. Mick Foley certainly paints himself as the good guy in every sitaution who did it almost all on his own. According to the book Mick never wrongs anybody and is always the victim. I doubt that it unfolded that way in real life. But, then again this is his book and a damn good one at that. Definately worth the money, but should be taken with a grain of salt.
Rating: Summary: Have A Nice Day : A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks Review: I only have one thing to say about this book and that is if you want to know about life as a wrestler you have to pay the money to order it...
Rating: Summary: Steve's Have a Nice Day! review Review: It is the BEST book I have ever read. I am not the kind of person that likes to read but I couldn't get off this book. I just finished it and I recommend it to anyone. It is like you are sitting down with Mick going over his life. Great Book.
Rating: Summary: Had a great read! Review: One of the hardest books to put down that I have ever read. It is AWESOME!
Rating: Summary: The Best Book EVER Review: I hate reading. If there is one thing in this world that I hate more than anything, it's reading. But with this book, I could not stop reading it. I spent about 4 hours straight on it every day till I finished this great book! I've never enjoyed a book this much. This is the greatest book I've ever read in my whole life. With this book, I forgot all about how much I hated reading, and I read every word. Twice. This book is truly the greatest book I've ever read in my whole life, and I highly recommend it to anyone. It doesn't matter if your a wrestling fan. It doesn't matter if your not a wrestling fan. It doesn't matter if your a midget in a speedo. It just... doesn't... matter! This is a great book, and you won't be sorry if you purchase it.
Rating: Summary: The Hardcore Legand Strikes Again Review: I thought the book was great but it could of done without some of the extra stuff like the time he went to disny he wrote a whole chapter on disney he should of made not fun of Al Snow [he is my favorite wrestler] i found that ever time i turned the page he was getting hurt i thought the book was great
Rating: Summary: A Great Read Review: This book is great for anyone who wants to read a book about a guy who gave his blood, sweat and tears to do what he loved to do. At many times in this book I just burst out laughing. The stories of Mick Foley's 17 hour hitchhike to Madison Square Garden to see his hero wrestle really gave me new incite about how a little event can shape the rest of your life. After reading this I gained a new respect for Wrestlers and what they have to do to get the fans to like or hate them. So if you don't want to have a great time reading a great book that you'll probably enjoy (Wrestling and Nonwrestling fans alike) then don't buy this book.
Rating: Summary: jeff's review Review: this book ruled. it was one of the best books i've ever read. It went from his high school days of jumping off roofs to his wwf days jumping off cages. it goes from dude love to cactus jack to mankind to cactus jack back to dude love and finally back to mankind. if i could read any book this year i would read this again. once again, it was one of the best books i've evere read or probably will ever read.
Rating: Summary: TALENT RULES HERE! Review: This book was so funny and a joy to read. I had no idea Mick Foley had so many talents.I love watching him perform and reading this adds to the respect I have for him.
Rating: Summary: This book made me HAVE A NICE DAY! Review: I have to admit that not only is Mick Foley a great sports-entertainer, but he is sure one hell of an author! Especially since this is his first book. He goes into great depth about his wrestling wars in WCW and WWF in a candid and humorous way. Thank you Mick for writing such a wonderful, entertaining book and HAVE A NICE DAY!
