“Dave had a particular knack for writing stories that read as if he were talking to you over a beer. I could always hear his voice in print. The greatest sports scribes have shared that breezy conversational trait.rdquo; — Star“Covering many of the biggest names and greatest events in sports, itrsquo;s a wonderful collection of yarns and reminiscences, told in Perkrsquo;s inimitable style, which always feels as though he has a beer in one hand, a cigar in the other, and is cracking wise.rdquo; — Cam Cole, Postmedia News“Few can spin a yarn with the wit and clever turns of phrase that Perky can.rdquo; — Shi Davidi, Sportsnet“Anyone who has ever spoken tonbsp;Davenbsp;Perkins, or readnbsp;Davenbsp;Perkins, remembers his voice. This book is a delightful way to experience it all again, through the wise, funny manrsquo;s eyes.rdquo; — Bruce Arthur, Sports Columnist“Anyone who worked withnbsp;Davenbsp;Perkinsnbsp;knew him to be the epitome of a newspaper man: smart, fun, tough-minded, and good-hearted. Those who never had the good fortune to share a road trip or a press box with him can read these well-told tales, many from a romantic era of print journalism now changing at a rapid pace, and feel like they were there for every interview, story, debate, cigar, and post-work beer.rdquo; — Michael Grange, Sportsnet“Dave Perkins is a great storytellernbsp;—nbsp;on and off the page. What a treat to read these tales of his life on the sports beat. Almost makes me feel like I was there, sharing in the adventures (hey, wait a minute, a bunch of the time, I was…). The newspaper sports columnist, sadly is a dying breed, and Perk is a throwback, a true heir to , , and especially . We canrsquo;t read him every morning in thenbsp;Starnbsp;anymore, but awfully nice of him to take a break from retirement and provide us with this gift.rdquo; — Steven Brunt, Columnist for Rogers Sportsnet“Most of the stories are pretty universal, which means they are enjoyable for anyone who pays attention to sports in general. And therersquo;s just enough venom and score-settling along the way to keep it interesting.rdquo; — Sports Books snbsp;Centrenbsp;blog “Like the man himself, the contents are honest, irreverent, funny, entertaining, frequently off-colour and often politically incorrect. And, occasionally, emotionally introspective.rdquo;— Golf Canada
