Why My Wife Thinks I'm an Idiot : The Life and Times of a Sportscaster Dad
by Authors: Mike Greenberg

Hardcover
Average Customer Rating:

Very worthy of 5 stars!

I listen to Mike and Mike every morning on XM 140 on my way to work. It's a great stress free way to start the day. This was a tough week at work--I stopped at the bookstore on the way home looking for something to read that would make me laugh...and I have been laughing out loud all evening. Greenie is so on target about the stuff that makes life worthwhile. His family, like mine, has tons of "characters" and this was his way of telling us he loves them. Both sentimental and hilarious, this is very worthy of 5 stars!

Laugh out load funny and touching

Greeny explores sports and family in a very personal way that's funny and touching. I laughed out loud reading his memoir, finding a lot to relate to as a husband and father. His reflections on sports though, are in a way the most touching part of the book. Greeny's clearly sad sports have lost so much of their innocence, but still finds beauty and joy in the ability of sports to give us heroes and allow us to believe in something greater than ourselves. In a way he's a grown man out to rescue the faded beauty of sports he knew as a kid. For those of us who've become jaded with professional sports over the years, his optimism is a passionate reminder of the love we had for these games and heroes when we were children.

Great character and truth revealed....

...well from Jason Landings review. after ammy pulled all 85 of his reviews for the copy and paste jobs he performed from Barnes and Nobles, he finally wrote his own review!

First off, it was typical. The content was short and revealed that not only did he not read the book, but he doesn't know how to use sentence fragments properly.

Second, his use of smack is not fresh but about as stale as a 2002 dorito chip found under the cushions.

Third, it's obvious to us now that he is not competent enough to write good, solid reviews that invoke criticism regarding self knowledge of the product. That coupled with the fact that he now has zero credibility with the amazon community, makes his one lone review all the more fun to simply laugh at. We shake our heads at the immaturity that emits from his skull.
