Publisher's Note
This revealing book exposes some of the most ill-advised moves in the history of American sports. Funny, compelling, and often controversial, it explores and ranks these dubious miscues from bottom to top, revealing scores of inside tales about the biggest names in sports history. Photos.

Industry Reviews
The author, a sports attorney, defines "blunders" as "an intentional action with foreseeable consequences, affecting not only just one athlete or event, but also with repercussions for a team, league, or entire sport." He then proceeds to present a case for each of his entries, sometimes stretching his definition to include the marginal (e.g., the O.J. Simpson case). Whether the selling of Babe Ruth by the Boston Red Sox was a bigger blunder than the Roger Maris "asterisk" or the cancellation of the 1994 World Series may seem inconsequential, but it does provide grist for sports junkies in search of an argument. An optional purchase for public libraries. William H. Hoffman, Ft. Myers-Lee Cty. P.L., Fla.
