Summary: Modern Day Shakespeare
Comment: As an alumni of the University of Georgia with a BA in English, if there is one thing I know how to do, its how to read. And I have to say that I enjoyed reading this work of genius better than just about anything I have picked up in my entire life. Mark Schlabach is the modern day Shakespeare of sports writing. He combines Edgar Allen Poe's sense of mystery with Mark Twain's unique perspective, and then ties it all together with John Steinbeck's multiple levels of depth and message. In today's world of over-the-top reality entertainment, Mr. Schlabach's keen eye brings us back to the greatest reality entertainment ever invented - football.
I also have a long history of reading magazines where the focus is the photography. This endeavor has always been less academic and more individual (so to speak). Regardless, as someone who appreciates photography, this book has great pictures.
Finally, my favorite chapter was the one that focused on Tubby. Tubby clearly represents a combination Old Yeller's and Hairy the Dawg's best attributes. When he takes the field during the Kentucky game to inspire the Dawg Nation, I almost cried. Mark Schlabach is a great writer, the AJC is a great newspaper, Tubby is a great dog, and Tattletales is a great establishment.
