Iconic athletes and penetrating interviews, cliche-free.

"Dave Hollander doesn't just interview sports figures. He has conversations with them that are so natural, you feel as if you're sitting around a kitchen table, talking sports and life with some of the most intriguing people. With his smart, and sometimes irreverent approach, Dave offers the thinking athlete room to think."--"Selena Roberts, ""New York Times" "Dave Hollander's 52 WEEKS is a one of a kind--52 interviews with past and present sports figures--containing questions and answers that will evoke an "OOOH and AAAHH" from every sports fan--an insightful, feel good book."--Bill Bradley "A home run! Dave Hollander can touch 'em all. 52 WEEKS is a book a you will not be able to put down. In fact you'll probably read it in one day... An incredibly fun must-read."--Steve Somers, WFAN Radio "Dave Hollander drops Rilke, Lysistrata, and the Chinese Zodiac into a sports interview as seamlessly as questions about the lack of fundamentals in the NBA, the designated hitter, or the NFL salary cap. It all works because it's undergirded by Hollander's solid bedrock of sports knowledge, and the interviews are with legends...A rip-roaring read, full of laugh-out-loud moments. Don't miss it."--John Bolster, "Penthouse" Magazine "Dave [Hollander] has the unique ability to make even the most cliche-ridden interview a must-read...No matter if he's speaking with Lawrence Taylor about his favorite New Jersey diner or discussing how the Sistine Chapel compares with a now-forgotten mural of Dwight Gooden, Dave is able to paint a portrait of these athletic legends that is far more robust and life-like than anything they accomplished on the field of play."--Paul Forrester,""SportsIllustrated.com"" "52 WEEKS gives you the good, the bad and the ugly. Mix 'em all together and you got yourself one helluva fun book with lots of great laughs. I loved it!"--Bum Phillips "Dave Hollander gets my respect--a great writer who understands the game of basketball and the game of life very, very well." --Michael Ray Richardson
