Publisher's Note
Which was the greater achievement, Ted Williams's .406 season or Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak? Who would dominate the ultimate Pebble Beach showdown—Ben Hogan or Tiger Woods? Is Michael Jordan really the most important athlete of the twentieth century?
Sports fans love a good argument and they defend their positions as fervently as any superstar athlete or championship team. Given the challenge, they are ready to verbally replay famous and infamous games, cite a heap of statistics to prove their point, and doggedly debate the virtues of players from the most famous to the unfairly underrated. In this completely original look at classic “hot-button” disputes, Chris “Mad Dog” Russo lays out both sides of one hundred conflicts and offers his own opinion on where the truth lies.
Imbued with the boisterous humor, bold convictions, and remarkable breadth of knowledge that has made Russo the reigning king of sports radio, The Mad Dog 100 is the essential companion for any self-respecting sports fan.
