Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. An ESPN sportswriter attempt to make a Yankee-haters book. Unfortunately, he relies too much on the Dave Barry set up/punchline formula and fails to be funny. Not only that, but he repeats many of his jokes throughout the book. I can't imagine it being all to easy to sustain a book merely on Yankee-hating anyhow, but this book fails at the very basic level. At the very least, it has going for it that it is a quick read. ( ) Yankees Suck. I would have liked that for a title. This book takes you through the less-than memorable history of the New York Yankees to publicize some of the worst moments in their history. While there are not many - to my dismay - you will learn that like other teams, the Yankees have went through their share of hard times. It was a fun to read, but I suggest doing it in the off-season when you don't have to face the reality of another season of these assclowns battling for 1st place. This book is for Yankee-haters everywhere. It is mostly about hating the current edition of the pin-stripers, so if you want hatred going back to Ruth, you'll have to look elsewhere. It also includes some well-tossed bombs at Red Sox whiners. Caple writes with a fine sense of humor, but also includes some important critiques of league policy and owner behavior that facilitate the perpetuation of the New York Goliath. Well worth the read. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
ESPN.com's designated Yankee hater takes on the rabid fan's of baseball's 26-time world champions, and offers a decidedly different slant on the New York Yankees--the losers of 13 World Series. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
