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?
