Epic Athletes: LeBron James (Epic Athletes, 5) von Dan Wetzel
Wow, I've never care about basketball, but this book kind of changed my mind on that. Who knew Lebron James was such an amazing guy? (yes, I've been living under a rock, far away from popular culture) Nice book -- solid biography of an interesting and inspiring person; great pacing; good mini-comic action throughout; excellent storytelling. I wish all the super wealthy folks out there would take a leaf out of his book. This is a person of great integrity, who cares about giving back to his community. Well done, Lebron James. I'm glad to know more about you.… (mehr)
The title alone was enough to convince me. Beyond that, the authors do a thorough job of explaining the inequality of the current BCS system and the reasons why a 16-team playoff would benefit everyone - but especially truth, justice, and the American Way.
"Death To The BCS" should be a must read for ANYONE interested in college football. Dan Wetzel, Josh Peter, and Jeff Pagan give a compelling argument why college football should have a 16 team playoff.
This book should be the blueprint for a playoff system. Why is college football the only sport without a playoff. No more split championship, no more undefeated team left on the outside looking in.
The regular season would mean more and conference championships would matter.
Funny thing is they don't want to see the bowls gone and they explain how you can have both. Teams would not lose money to go to a bowl game.
Please read this book and give it to another college football fan to read. We need to change the status quo!… (mehr)
