Crazy Days & Wild Nights by Howie Mooney
Crazy Days & Wild Nights is a collection of nineteen different stories that capture the wildly random nature of sports and the games people play. Situations can flip in the blink of an eye and the normal can turn into complete chaos in a heartbeat. Howie Mooney shows us how rational players can become irrational given certain circumstances. He also shows us how all of our favorite sports and games are made up of people, some who are loved and some who are reviled, simply because of what happened in one moment. Mooney takes us on a tumultuous ride through six decades of sports history in this incredible volume.
