|
Your favorite players have left you with a deep and intricate memory of their greatness, not to mention well-honed arguments as to why your favorites are really the best. In arenas, in front of your TV, and in bars, you have debated friends and strangers alike. Yours won six titles, batted .350 in the clutch, or generated 82% of their team's scoring. Greeny shows that not all numbers are created equal. Some are accomplishments. Others are identity. In essays certain to provoke debate between and amongst all generations, Greeny uses his lifetime of sports knowledge to spin yarns of the legends among the legends and tell you why some have claimed their spot in the top 100 of all time. - adapted from jacket |
