Everyone should read Fever Pitch

The book, not the movie (although I enjoy the movie for its cheesyness)

But the constant doom on here in the face of excellence…fever pitch is the best breakdown of the absolute irrationality of fandom. It won’t fix you, but you might understand you better…lol

Some people in here need an iota of common sense. Their expectations are delusional...

Everyone should read A Drive Into the Gap for the vibes.

Every Dodgers fan should read Stealing Home for the history.

Fuck Boston, fuck the Celtics. Fuck the Red Sox.

I agree…but that’s not what the book is about. “Fuck arsenal!” Would be more fitting

Amen.

The movie has a great Tears for Fears song in it from some of their reunion era -- which folks should NOT sleep on. The rest of the movie, could take or leave lol

Is it the seeds of love? That song is a fockin’ banga’

No it's "Who Killed Tangerine" from their 2004 album. Their stuff in this century is equal to their 80s peak. They could've coasted & did not have to go this hard but it's all fantastic.

Also…there’s a British version of the movie with Colin firth that’s pretty good.

Everyone should read American Psycho…just because it mentions Genesis and I love me some Genesis
