Dixieland Delight review January 26, 2008 I purchased this book as a Christmas gift for a friend with whom I go to University of Georgia games. I was unaware that he bought the same book for me as a Christmas gift. I enjoyed the book a great deal. It is written by a Tennessee Vols fan but I thought the book was as unbiased as any book can be when written by a huge fan from an opposing school. I thought it was a very easy read and would recommend it for any college football fan.
get this for boyfriend, husband, any male or female who likes football January 19, 2008 This is a good book even if you don't like football. If you wonder why your boyfriend, husband or anyone is so crazy about football, especially SEC football, read this book and find out. Its not just the game, but the places, the people and the camaraderie that surround this southern tradition. Entertaining, easy read.
Not Recomended for female florida fans January 13, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a very funny book, but I would not recommend this book to any female Florida fan.
Where Was The Editor? December 30, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Do editors do ANYTHING these days? Anything at all? Here's a great, funny little book, totally marred by the fact that it wasn't editted at all.
Clay Travis has a great concept -- he goes to a see a game in a different SEC stadium every weekend for the 2006 season. He's funny, informative, has great cultural insights about the South -- but no editor showed up to fix the things that were wrong.
The book is incredibly repetitious. I think this is because it started out as a series of blogs on the internet, but it should have been cleaned up for book publication. Does he really have to mention that he went to Vandy Law School every five pages, or include his wife's home state in every chapter, or repeat anecdotes two and three times? Then there's the whole inclusion of personal life, the personal life of friends, and a multitude of cultural references from the Bush41 administration.
If you like SEC football and thought OLD SCHOOL was the funniest college movie ever, you shuld buy this book. If you like SEC football and know that ANIMAL HOUSE is the funniest college movie ever, but at a disocunt price. If you're a Tennessee Volunteer fan, check out the [...] special offer, getting the book AND a box of crayons at one low price.
disappointing December 8, 2007 1 out of 12 found this review helpful
I was disappointed in this. The guy needs an editor. Also, the book could have been shorter and less repetitive. Most southerners can't read anyway so I guess this book will just be used to boost midgets up at the table and to level crooked tables in Birmingham. This book does have one good laugh--Bama bangs. John Parker Wilson should definitely get the crew cut now. Try "A Tailgater's Guide to the SEC." It's dope.
