A fun, quick football related book. Segal looks back on the history of "hot" takes in football and exposes some of the more ridiculous (in hindsight) ones. Ryan Leaf is probably the best known of all of the failures. He was so hyped and turned out to be a complete dud. Of course many predicted that Green Bay was making a huge mistake with Brett Favre and again with Aaron Rodgers (obviously both quarterbacks worked out pretty well). Tom Brady was not well thought of and many in New England were dismayed when the Patriots picked him in the draft, since they had a terrific franchise quarterback with Drew Bledsoe. You get the idea 😃
