Insightful and surprising January 20, 2006 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Now, I'd never heard of Rosenhaus until this summer because of the T.O. situation. I picked up this book expecting it to be a typical self-absorbed, egotistical piece of junk. However, I had no idea about the depth of Drew. He came to terms with his sexuality early in his life and he didn't let small minds stop him from becoming successful -- including his own. Did you know he auditioned for Cirque de Soleil? His talent was throwing enormous styrofoam triangles into the air and then catching them behind his back. He didn't make the cut, but he vowed that he would drink a gallon of Dr Pepper everyday from that day forward. That may sound incongrous, but I think it shows the level of commitment he's willing to make. So, Mr. Rosenhaus please take a bow, this is a book that may seem overpriced at 10 cents, but feels really right to me.
The Worst Sports Has To Offer April 12, 2005 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
The name of this book should be re-titled 'A Shark Never Sleeps: Wheeling and Dealing with the NFL's Most CLASSLESS Agent.' This guy is so disgusting I won't bother to give my litany of negative aspects of this book. The only interesting part of this book is that it exposes the ugly side of professional sports.
Wow! He's Some Kinda Symptom . . . Er, Guy! October 7, 2002 9 out of 11 found this review helpful
October 6, 2002Hoping for a peek into the arena of sports agency, I picked this up one lazy afternoon. Wow! I suppose if you're the right sort of person with the right sense of humor, you could have a lot of fun wallowing inside this fellow Drew Rosenhaus's own fascinated vision of himself and his life--replete with numerous descriptions of how crafty and tough he is, as well as an insert bikini photo of his model girlfriend (with whom he's formed a deep, lasting pair-bond, I'm sure). However, it's more likely you might be left gaping at a printed ego that approaches the sociopathic, pondering about what publisher and editor were possibly thinking, and wondering how many Drew Rosenhauses are out there, tolerated, even rewarded, in this, the tackiest, but best dressed, of all possible worlds. Tolerated and rewarded not just in professional sports, which would be bad enough, but in civil law, corporate finance, government . . .

This guy loves himself and only himself... January 29, 2000 11 out of 14 found this review helpful
I could not belive how someone could be this self involved... I am a negotiator and was hoping for good negotiating advice but got something much different. I am sure that half of this book was untrue, however I have to give credit were credit is due, he did make it to the top. I just hope that after the realease of this book he is able to stay there, "now that would be impressive"...
