Massive goalies, midget batters, and Mike Tyson...
Todd Gallagher faced them all to answer your questions Every sports fan knows that the debates can be almost as
interesting as the games themselves (unless you’re a Tampa
Bay Devil Rays fan, in which case they're much more
interesting). But some debates can never be settled no
matter how much you run up your bar tab arguing with your
friends. Well, it’s time to answer your questions once and for all: • Could an average guy start in the WNBA?
• Would sumo wrestlers make great NFL linemen?
• How easy is it for pro athletes to get laid?
• How good are pro golfers at miniature golf?
• Do pro athletes really play drunk or high?
• How would a fan hit against a major league pitcher? To settle more than thirty of sports’ greatest (and most
ridiculous) debates, Todd Gallagher has teamed up with
coaches, general managers, and athletes—including LeBron
James, Mike Tyson, Dwyane Wade, Johan Santana, Eddie
George, Jose Canseco, and many others. But Gallagher didn’t just ask questions. He put these
debates to the test—literally. He sent an all-midget lineup
up against a pro baseball team. He swam freestyle against a
doggie-paddling Olympic gold medalist. He recruited
America's #1 darts player to test that uncanny accuracy in
beer pong. And, yes, he stuck a frying pan in tennis star
Andy Roddick’s hands and went to battle. The results are hilarious and enlightening. Best of all,
once you have the answers you’ll be able to shut up the
next loudmouth who tries to debate you at the bar.
