Simply En Fuego

Dan Patrick exemplifies outstanding sports reporting. In Outtakes, he engages his dry sense of humor and mixes it together with his extraordinary knowledge of the sports world. Outtakes is a candid collection of interviews with sports' celebrities of past and present. He is not afraid to ask the questions that everyone truly wants to ask, and the word associations are outright hysterical. Patrick is one of the wittiest people on the face of the earth. Outtakes just shines with this. The book is an easy read, and has a good, steady flow to it. It is one entertaining ride into the insightful mind of Dan Patrick, sports' guru. Just hold on, because the laughs come hard and fast.

If you love the ESPN Magazine column, you'll love this book.

As soon as I saw the ad in ESPN the Magazine for this book I had to get it. I enjoy Dan Patrick's "Outtakes" every week and always wished there was more than just one page. Well, I got my wish. The book is formatted just like the weekly column, with offbeat questions for your favorite athletes. The only thing I might change about this book is the fact that there is only one woman athlete interview. Although, I don't watch too many woman's sports, I would love to hear their perspective on things."Outtakes" is a must for the sports fan that's looking for something a little different. I'm already looking forward to "Outtakes II"!
