Ballhype Bracketfest: Reading Rainbow
TheHype posted 7/30/2007 from ballhype.com
You wouldn't know it, but Charles Oakley is a jack of all trades. He sets hard picks, clotheslines opposing players, and he'll sell his left arm before he gives up a rebound. Now he's going write a book. YES.
"I'm not pulling any punches, true stories. It ain't one of those Charles Barkley fake books, it's a Charles Oakley book," Oakley said. "It's not an O.J. book, it's an Oakley book."
So here at Bracketfest, we like to poll smoke and what better way to smoke'em up than to compare and contrast other recent "tell all" books written by ex-athletes?
Jose Canseco's "Juiced" trivia
| John Amaechi's "Man in the Middle" trivia
| Wilt Chamberlain's "A View From Above" trivia | Charles Oakley's soon to be named book... trivia (hopefully)
|
- Steroids... | - calling out homophia in the NBA (shocking!) | - really, only one trivia you need from this: Sleeping 20 000 women (damn!) | - having his five fingers say something to Tyrone Hill's face |
So what do you think? Which self-auto-bio-tell-all is the more scandalous? Vote or read a book!
