David S. Neft, Bob Carroll, ...

St. Martin's Griffin, 2002

It was really good
It is really good. It includes all kinds of different trivia questions about the Red Sox history, past and present day. I suggest it.
  
  











  



  
Run, Rabbit, Run: The Hilarious and Mostly True Tales of Rabbit Maranville1 review
Walter "Rabbit" Maranville

Society for American Baseball Research, 1991

Rabbit Tales
A short read, only 90 pages, an easy read also. The book is short stories from Walter "rabbit" Maranville's experiences as a baseball player from 1911-1939. Each story is no more than a page or so. Did everything he talks about really happen? Well I guess that's part of the charm of this book. Like your favorite Grandpa spinning stories from the past, I sure there is some embellishment, but ...
  
  











  



  
The Hidden Game of Football: The Next Edition1 review
Bob Carroll, Pete Palmer, ...

Total Sports, 1998

Great Statistical Analysis of Football
This book is an excellent read for anyone who has a genuine interest in football statistics. The authors are actually statisticians themselves, and they go through each phase of the game and attempt to come up with scientific ways to rate each position, including the offensive line! The part I found most interesting was the chapter on quarterbacks and the conventional NFL QB rating system and ...
  
  











  



  
Assessment in Physical Education

Taylor & Francis, 2007

"Why assess?", "What can I assess?", "How can I assess satisfactorily in physical education (PE)?", these and other questions are examined in this volume, which offers both practical advice and theoretical perspectives relating assessment in PE to assessment in other subjects and in school issues generally. The book has been written over a period in which the interim report of the working party for PE and the statutory orders for PE have been ...
  
  











  



  
The Boston Red Sox Fan Book: Revised to Include the 2004 Championship Season!1 review
David S. Neft, Bob Carroll, ...

St. Martin's Griffin, 2005

don't buy this book by mistake
I bought this book by mistake, and I want to warn others to think before buying. It's not a bad book. That's not the problem. Let me explain. A friend of mine had this book that I found really engaging and I wanted my own copy. I mixed up the titles and got this book by mistake, not realizing that there were two books with almost identical titles. The book I most highly recommend is THE ...
  
  











  



  
When the Grass Was Real: Unitas, Brown, Lombardi, Sayers, Butkus, Namath, and All the Rest : The Best Ten ...3 reviews
Bob Carroll

Simon & Schuster, 1993

I want to get out my old football cards!
If you are in your 40's and loved pro football as a kid in the 1960's, then this is the book to read! It brought back so many wonderful childhood memories of the NFL and AFL that I wanted to weep. I remember some of these game in the 60's better than I do games of a couple years ago. And the author provides much insight into the players and games that I was never aware of. The early struggles ...
  
  











  



  
Laughing with Lucy: My Life with America's Leading Lady of Comedy10 reviews
Madelyn Pugh Davis

Clerisy Press, 2007

With Lucy's other writers had done books, too.
Having read tons of other books on everything tied to Lucy, I was especially happy to come across this memoir of what I consider to be one of television's best writers. Ms. Davis writes succinctly but thoroughly and entertainingly about many of her memories associated with what many people consider to be television's all-time best sit-com. It is a great, fun read for anyone interested in "I ...
  
  











  



  
Total Football II: The Official Encyclopedia of the National Football League (Total Football)25 reviews
Bob Carroll, Total Sports

Collins, 1999

Some people want magic
For those of you who are looking for every NFL player - even those who never played a game - I suggest rubbing a magic bottle and hoping for a genie, because that'll be the only way you'll find that information. It simply doesn't exist. While some bellyache that the statistical information isn't organized and re-printed 30 different times in every discernable way, they don't understand that ...
  
  











  



  
The Cincinnati Reds Trivia Book1 review
David S. Neft, Bob Carroll, ...

St Martins Pr, 1993

Superior NYPD novel
"Justice" is not Dan Mahoney's best novel (that would be "Black & White") but it is still a great read about the NYPD, specifically a pair of Detectives vs. a highly skilled vigilante. Considering there at at least a half dozen tv series about the same general subject (Law & Orders, CSI, etc), it is a credit to Mahoney's skill as an author to keep the reader not just interested, but fascinated by ...
  
  











  



  
Total Browns: The Official Encyclopedia of the Cleveland Browns1 review
Bob Carroll, Michael Gershman, ...

Total Sports, 1999

The only Browns REFERENCE you need
This book really does cover all aspects of the Browns - It is set up just like Total Football, so it has a game summary from every playoff game, complete stats from every player in Bronws history, complete rosters and draft results, the best players, a history of the team, and even a short segment on Cleveland Football before the Brows. If you want Browns stats, this is the place to go!
