Summary: The funniest, most honest book about sports ever written.
Comment: I never wanted this book to end and couldn't stop myself from finishing it. I received many strange looks from people as I grabbed my side and laughed out loud at Dan Jenkin's comic masterpiece. I couldn't help myself. Adding to the hilarity is the fact that the events and characters are all too real in the world of sports. The puritanical may be offended. Swearing and sex are a part of big time sports. I'm jealous of everyone, sports fan and non sports fan, who will be reading this book for the first time. You will not be disappointed.

Summary: My brother will never return this book.
Comment: This book is an amazement to me; purely because I don't know how Dan Jenkins keeps coming up with this hilarious stuff. But perhaps I do. As one of the world's best sports writers, he's been everywhere and done everything. He's seen the sports world for what it is -- a lot of fun and excitement to be around when the game is involved; and fall down laughing funny when those around it begin to think that it all actually matters. If you are one of those who confuses sports with reality - don't read this book. It will probably just tick you off. If you are one of us who enjoys sports and actually have lifes -- READ THIS BOOK. You will never watch a sportscast the same way again. If you are one of us who enjoys learning about the ins and outs of big time sports and entertainment, and don't mind the generous portions of sexy humor and humorous sex that Mr. Jenkins does so well -- you've probably already read this book several times, just like me.
WARNING!!! DO NOT LEND THIS BOOK TO LIKE MINDED FOLKS (MALE OR FEMALE). YOU'LL NEVER GET IT BACK.
Rating: 4
Summary: A few from the bar rail, inside the press box.
Comment: Dan Jenkins is at his best when he's making fun of himself.
You Gotta Play Hurt appears to be based on Jenkins'
time at Sports Illustrated. I've heard the characters are based on very real folks.
It's funny...and most of it apears to be true!!
