Football's Blackest Hole: A Fan's Perspective

Rating:
Summary: What a pleasure
Review: I am not an American football fan and just happened to pick this book up on a lark. What a pleasure. Parker's acerbic wit, dry humor and energizing turn-of-phrase kept me turning the pages. If football is a ballet, then Parker is a poet!

Summary: A great read and a great gift!
Review: I bought this book for my husband as a surprise gift for football season. Not only did he love it, but he insisted that I read it. I was not disappointed. It is packed full of information, has a great index and is written with humor and an edge. This is a talented writer that I hope plans to write more. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Amusing but in serious need of editing
Review: This book had its amusing moments, bringing back both childhood and recent memories. Unfortunately, the book was in serious need of editing. Missing periods, typos, and constantly-changing names were a problem throughout the book. Perhaps this publisher doesn't want to spend on having someone carefully read over the manuscripts before publishing them, which is a shame because it detracts from the book's merits.

Rating:
Summary: An excellent book!
Review: This is perhaps the best Raider book that I've ever read. The only thing that kept me from giving it five stars were the several attacks on President Bush. Other than that, this is a must-read for any Raider fan!
