Feustel's on-line review: "5 stars Excellent text for intermediate to advanced gamblers There is a learning curve one must suffer through before they have a chance to be a professional sports gambler. If you have done your homework for a year studied your math and want to get better this is an excellent text. It is very math heavy but if you are not willing to wade through the details you really should not be in sports gambling the golden information rarely gets published. This book has the gold -- including thorough analysis of NFL teasers the value of NFL point buying and solid money management advice there are other topics as well but these are most recognizable by intermediate sports bettors. Additionally the handicapping analysis of turnovers pp. 94-95 is worth the cost of the book alone if you do your own handicapping. Although it is an exceptional text it is not for beginners."

From the publisher: "In this highly entertaining and insightful memoir one of television's most respected broadcasters interweaves the story of his life and career with lively firsthand tales of some of the most thrilling events and fascinating figures in modern sports. No sportscaster has covered more major sporting events than Al Michaels. Over the course of his forty-plus year career he has logged more hours on live network television than any other broadcaster in history and is the only play-by-play commentator to have covered all four major sports championships: the Super Bowl World Series NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup Final. He has also witnessed first-hand some of the most memorable events in modern sports and in this highly personal and revealing account brings them vividly to life. Michaels shares never-before-told stories from his early years and his rise to the top covering some of the greatest moments of the past half century -- from the Miracle on Ice -- the historic 1980 Olympic hockey finals to the earthquake that rocked the 1989 World Series. Some of the greatest names on and off the field are here -- Michael Jordan Bill Walton Pete Rose Bill Walsh Peyton and Eli Manning Brett Favre John Madden Howard Cosell Cris Collinsworth and many many more. Forthright and down-to-earth Michaels tells the truth as he sees it giving readers unique insight into the high drama the colorful players and the heroes and occasional villains of an industry that has become a vital part of modern culture.".
