An extraordinary book about an extraordinary week. Superb. --Joseph Boyden Bidini is a terrific writer - funny, clever, passionate. . . . Part history lesson, part travelogue, part self-examination, part play-by-play and a whole lot of reminiscing... hilarious... -- Dave Fuller, Toronto Sun We want to be Dave Bidini when we grow up. --Toronto Star Dave Bidini is a heck of a good writer. His prose is almost conversational, creating an effect like a guy sitting at a bar telling you a good story, without the drunken rambling usually associated with such a fellow. --Globe and Mail I could read Dave Bidini all day. And I have. --Steve Rushin, Sports Illustrated
