ESPN the Magazine Presents Answer Guy
I’m not really a fan of this book. I wouldn’t read it again either. The format is really confusing. It’s gives a reference from a person and goes on to say their take on the question. But what I don’t like is that is that I’m never sure what they are talking about.
