Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. A masterful ode to America's game--and an unforgettable portrait of its greatest legends written by America's best sportswriters. It is a question that has bedeviled football fans for generations: Who's the best? Of the more than 25,000 men who have suited up during the NFL's century of existence, which ones stood head and shoulders above all others? At The Athletic, home to the best newsroom in sports, this question would become a labor of love for dozens of the best football writers on the planet, including Mike Sando and Dan Pompei. Over the course of 100 riveting football biographies based on many hundreds of interviews with players, coaches, broadcasters, and others, this is a penetrating look at the greatest players to ever don cleats and pads, as well as a view from the trenches of the harsh realities of a brutal game. 100 photographs throughout the text offer testament to both the glory and the physical toll of football. Among them: Walter Payton, who once played with a 104-degree fever--and broke the single game rushing record with 275 yards Jim Otto, the legendary offensive lineman who paid the ultimate price, suffering 35 concussions and undergoing a total of 74 surgeries Johnny Unitas, who began his career playing quarterback, safety, and punter in a semi-pro league for $6 a game Brett Favre whose very first NFL pass was a pick-six, and Tom Brady, whose very first college pass was also a pick-six Bronco Nagurski, who had a size 22 neck, and moonlighted as a professional wrestler--during football season Grambling State, the tiny historically Black university that produced three of the greatest players of the 1960's The equipment manager who would order 4 different sizes of thigh pad: "Small, Medium, Large, and Earl Campbell" Chuck Bednarik, who once tore his bicep muscle from the bone, fastened it back in place with athletic tape, and returned to the game--an exhibition game Where are these legends as well as today's stars--Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Julio Jones, Aaron Donald, and others--ranked? You'll find out here, among players from 1920 to the present day, from the Patriots in the east to the 49ers in the west, featuring names like "Night Train," "Iron Mike" "Bulldog," and "Crazylegs," The Football 100 shares stunning new stories you've never heard before, and resurrects the legacies of unfairly forgotten greats. Deeply reported, beautifully written, and sure to spark heated debate among football fans of all stripes, this definitive guide to NFL history sets a new standard for writing about the game.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. A celebration of basketball by way of the 100 greatest players to ever grace the court in the history of the NBA--from The Athletic's foremost basketball writers and analysts the game has to offer. With a foreword by Charles Barkley. In this definitive work of basketball history, 100 luminous player profiles from the best sports newsroom on the planet paint vivid portraits of the game's most compelling characters. There's George Mikan, who was cut from his high school team because he wore glasses, then went on to become the fledgling NBA's first transcendent star. Gary Payton, called "The Glove" for his skintight defense, who talked as much trash to his teammates as he did to his opponents on the court. Dennis Rodman, who started playing basketball at age 20, and in a few short years went from working as a janitor at the airport to being one of the strangest superstars that sport has ever known. Allen Iverson, who drew inspiration from hip hop for his inimitable style and swagger, on and off the court. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who was so dominant in the paint that they changed the rules--and Steph Curry, who was so dominant outside it that he seemed to expand the very boundaries of the court. The Basketball 100, edited by award-winning reporters David Aldridge and John Hollinger, also tackles the game's toughest, most important questions, fueling the ultimate basketball debate: How should we weight championship rings, versus statistical profiles, versus the "eye test"? Were the great players of yesteryear, like Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell, propelled by the inferior athleticism of their competition or would they have been transcendent in any era? And of course, this book dives deep into the GOAT debate--MJ or LeBron? Speaking of GOATs, for the book, Hollinger (a pioneer in sports analytics and inventor of the statistical metric PER) has created a new benchmark, GOAT Points. Wonderfully written, authoritative, and full of joy, The Basketball 100 is a fitting tribute to the greatest sport in the world, making this the perfect basketball gift book for any fan. This comprehensive ranking of NBA legends delivers definitive portraits and answers to the game's biggest questions: 100 Legendary NBA Careers: Go beyond the stats with vivid stories of icons, from George Mikan being cut from his high school team to Dennis Rodman's journey from airport janitor to NBA superstar. Expert NBA Player Rankings: Discover a new, authoritative top 100 list from the celebrated writers at The Athletic, with a foreword by the legendary Charles Barkley. Groundbreaking Analysis: See the game in a new light with John Hollinger's brand-new "GOAT Points" metric, a benchmark created exclusively for this book to compare stars from every era. Rings vs. Stats Deep Dive: Settle the arguments with in-depth analysis that weighs championship rings against statistical dominance, finally tackling the ultimate question: MJ or LeBron.…
