There's something quite...expected, I guess...about a Bob Uecker autobio that came out 2 months before the Brewers won the AL pennant. If you can't get him on the radio calling games, at least read this. Unfortunately the humor is of 1970s un-PC vintage. I'm too young to remember him as the Tonight Show guest and national pop culture icon; for the last 25 years he's just been the other guy calling Brewers games that doesn't sound like Pat Hughes. (The last 4 Brewers radio PBP guys sound rather alike. Jim Powell did the best straight man act with Uecker. Joe Block is getting there.) ( ) Hilarious: Hilarious. Uecker the practical joker. Even non-baseball fanatics will enjoy this book. I don't think his on the field antics would be tolerated today. Granted, many of the actions by him and his teammates were over the top, but maybe we need a little more of that individuality in baseball today. (That does not include steroids. Hank Aaron was not a large man by any means.) Along with the spirit they had, with less emphasis on how many millions I need, maybe I would have a different outlook on what the game has become. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
