I loved this book so why not 5 stars? As a Black English woman some of the references were beyond my experience and knowledge of some of the athletes but I did my research as I read. I love Michael's rants. He is the king.

If you live sports - especially basketball - and film: this book is for you.

However, you don't need an extensive background in the subject because the content of the rants is really relatable.

Some chapters had me absolutely rolling. And some i didn't care about...mostly the boxing/MMA chapters. Listened on audible so bonus of author reading.

Rappaport can be abrasive at times but this book was entertaining.

5-star narration from Michael himself.

A lot of F-bombs and sports and I only grasped the f-bombs jokes. But I learned a lot about people who play sports – even got me curious to check out some the material he presented. Rapaport is such a comical guy – knew this going into the audiobook. I also learned how much he loves to talk trash about practically any subject. Not that anyone cares but I need to get this out …I made the mistake of brushing my teeth while listening and I laughed so hard & threw my head back, I swallowed my toothpaste foam, followed by (almost) the whole toothbrush – which is electric…so I almost cleaned my larynx.

Recommend for the sporty types but I sense a fight would break out concerning the "disses" LOL!! Recommend for the non-sporty types too - just because it's so funny
