Title: highly readable and inspiring
Product review: I had an opinion that a Dick Enberg autobiography would be dull simply because of his painfully diplomatic approach to life. Where would be the juicy, behind the scenes stories? Mr. Enberg shows that selective story telling and evenhandedness can be very readable AND interesting. What comes across is a life of dedication, hard work and a love of sports, recognizing that are multiple sides to a sports story.The comment by one reviewer that he is the worst announcer ever, while it doesn't address the quality of the book, is simply incorrect. One only needs to mute the TV while watching his broadcasts and observe the poetic flow of his delivery while his booth-mates, many of whom are excellent, stutter and stray from the game. There are some personal lessons in the book and much appreciation to be gained from what it takes to produce a quality sportscast.
