Customer Reviews

Repetitive and Redundant

The writer seems to be infatuated with the word"Badass" -he uses it literally a couple times EVERY page- and after the first 10 pages it's annoying.The book will give you some background on the team- but a MUCH better book is "Cheating is Encouraged". Don't waste your time, nothing new OR exciting about the Raiders is in here.
