Hysterically informative!,
By sport and reading fan (New Hampshire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Become an Athletic Supporter: You Don't Have to Wear a Jock to Talk Like One (Paperback)
One of the funniest sports books I have ever read. This is a straight-forward succinctly written guide to the major sports ~ but with an attitude. I'm certain the author had her tongue planted firmly in her cheek as she wrote each page. She obviously knows her sports, and you will, too, after reading this. That you had so much fun learning about those sports is the beauty of this gem of a book. This is a must have book for anyone who wants to learn about sports or anyone with a sense of humor. It works on both levels.

I'm Beginning to Like Sports!,
By Nadine Stevens (Bellaire, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Become an Athletic Supporter: You Don't Have to Wear a Jock to Talk Like One (Paperback)
I have never been a sports fan. A few years ago some of my friends became avid fans of the Astros, the Rockets, and the Comets, going to the games and having fun. This made me wish I knew more about sports. After reading Teri Burns's book I am going to try going to games and see if I can become a late-blooming fan. THANKS TERI!

I just finished reading "How to Become an Athletic Supporter", and loved it! This book is actually a informative, and well written, handbook to provide the basics (and lots of interesting details) of all of the major sports a wife is likely to encounter! It covers each sport, and keeps your interest with it's pithy commentary (primarily aimed at the man of the house). Overall, both I and my husband recommend this book. I just enjoyed reading it, and my husband actually learned a few things from it!
