"An interesting behind-the-scenes look at ESPN. This book is already 10 years old, however, so I'm sure it could use an update. I would not be surprised if Keith Olbermann was behind this book, along with the author. Also some interesting bits on Mike Tarico, now of MNF fame, and his checkered past with the network."
"Thought it was an enlightening book. We as viewers only get to see what is on the air. As a person working in the news business, I can tell you this book tells a nearly perfect story of what takes place in a newsroom. A lot of bickering, fighting and backstabbing."
"Disappointing. I was expecting a lot more of interest in this book but it can be distilled as follows:
- In the beginning no one believed in it and it lost a lot of money - ESPN has a huge problem with sexual harassment - Mike Tirico is a one man sexual harassment machine. The End"
