More About the Author

Thank you for viewing my page. I am the author of thirteen books on the funniest sports quotations (I also wrote one book about political quotes). The books are part of the Shorts Series (i.e.--Football Shorts, Basketball Shorts, Golf Shorts, etc.). These books have sold over 3000,000 copies worldwide.

I have very much enjoyed working on the books but I have taken a hiatus for the last several years to concentrate on other things (including coaching a basketball team for several years with a combined record of 5-30--the ironic part was that some of the kids were terrific players but unfortunately their coach was not exactly a Coach K clone). In recent months, I have started writing again and have some articles coming up in The Elks Magazine and Referee Magazine. Of course, the focus of the articles are on quotes. I have also created a blog. The site of the blog is http://sportsquotation.blogspot.com/

I have always loved how quotes can both inspire and make people laugh. My blog is dedicated to look at sports quotes from a different angle (ie.---Greatest Sports Quotes about Cats, Greatest Sports Quotes about Cookies, Greatest Bruce Willis Sports Quotes, etc.). It also provides me with an opportunity to vent which is important for us pseudo Type A (I'm more like a B-Plus) personalities.

Feel free to contact me any time and I hope you have an opportunity to read some of the books. The feedback I have gotten over the years is overwhelmingly positive. Of course, even though they are not my words, I do take fulll credit.
Thank you, Glenn

This review is from: 2,000 Sports Quips and Quotes (Hardcover)
This is the first in the series of seventeen one liner books I have done on sports. This book was so much fun to compile. If you love the great characters of sports and the things they said, then you will love this book. They're all here from Ali to Jordan. If you would like any info about this or any of my books, please contact me at glennliebman.com. Thank you.
