Not Now Honey I'm Watching the Game

Very few books have made an impact on me as much as this obscure but genuine gem. I've owned it for years and still check it out often. As a lifelong sports maven- and as a person with a lifelong neurological condition- I have to limit my exposure to sports on TV or live. That ended my lifelong dream of being a sports columnist. Thank God for Kevin Quirk, who was the first guy- and, to this day, the only guy- to identify this condition.With humor and warmth, Kevin not only tells you how he quit the business cold turkey but how he talked to sports junkies all over the country for their stories. I live in Boston, arguably the most intense sports city of all, and I feel that this book was written for me. Like Kevin, I have dealt with sports junkiedom all my life, not always successfully. He's still there to help. If you, too, have a sporting obsession and want to put it in the proper perspective, go dig this book up right now. You, too, can deal with it. Again- thank God for Kevin Quirk!
