Reviews"I've been accused of rooting against every team in America, but I am rooting FOR Stugotz's Personal Record Book. Amazingly , Stugotz has now written exactly one more book than he's read." --Joe Buck, voice of Monday Night Football "If there was a hall of fame for books, Stugotz's Personal Record Book would be a first-ballot selection." --Dwight Freeney, Pro Football Hall of Famer "Sources tell me that Stugotz's Personal Record Book is more than just a collection of his best takes. He actually added some logic and reason to them. And it is now confirmed: Stugotz and his book are both winners." --Adam Schefter, ESPN's Senior NFL Insider and New York Times bestselling author " Stugotz's Personal Record Book is like going on a lazy river of Stugotz's mind, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but I didn't want the ride to end." --Dianna Russini, The Athletic 's Senior NFL Insider "I've known Stugotz for a decade or so and always appreciated his spirit for others and his unconventional perspective on all things sports and pop culture. Stugotz's Personal Record Book is the ultimate manifestation of those musings, in all their 'WTF did that dude say?' glory. . . . What a legend." --Marty Smith, New York Times bestselling author of Never Settle " Stugotz's Personal Record Book is en fuego. Unfortunately, not literally. Can't wait for the movie based on the book." --Dan Patrick, Sports Broadcasting Hall of Famer

SynopsisSports radio legend Stugotz rewrites the record books, taking rings away from undeserving champions and giving them to the rightful winners. "I've been accused of rooting against every team in America, but I am rooting FOR Stugotz's Personal Record Book ."--Joe Buck Without Tom Brady, Bill Belichick is a worse head coach than Herm Edwards. Kevin Durant has no rings. Rafael Nadal is not on the Mount Rushmore of men's tennis. For years, popular sports radio personality Stugotz has been telling fans that he keeps a "personal record book," a kind of alternate sports universe in which Babe Ruth is not a great Yankee, Sean McVay has no rings, and Joe Namath is not in the Hall of Fame, to name just a few of his sacred proclamations. As Stugotz hilariously renders his controversial judgments with the steely conviction of a psychopath, what might seem like broadsides meant to rattle the cages of avid sports fans are transformed into shockingly wise, well-considered arguments that, taken together, form a radical revision of sports history. Prepare to be wildly entertained as he shows where flash and hype have replaced integrity and sportsmanship. He takes rings away and gives new ones out, reframes some of history's most iconic games, and declares entire sports dead (sorry, horse racing). He even invites some of the biggest names in sports media, such as Scott Van Pelt and Mina Kimes, to offer their rebuttals. By taking on the legends of basketball, baseball, hockey, soccer, and tennis, Stugotz leaves no stone unturned--and no sport unscathed.
