Professional sports in America: it's all about fair play and the
goal of winning championships. At least that's the spin. But could
it be a massive showbiz operation filled with greedy owners,
crooked referees, and coddled players, all with the unstated goal
of grabbing as much money as possible?
Author Brian Tuohy provides a full-sourced saga of the
corruption that has infected the storied histories of the NBA, MLB,
NFL, NHL, and NASCAR.
With reality obscured by a complacent and often complicit sports
media, The Fix Is In shines a light on a hidden history of
clandestine arrangements between television networks and sports
leagues, all against a background of drinking, drugging, and
crime.
Finally, here's a book that unflinchingly examines the sordid
underbelly of the American sports industry.
Brian Tuohy maintains the website thefixisin.net and is a
frequent contributor to the CBS Sports website bleacherreport.com,
where he chronicles sports scandals and conspiracies as the stories
break. Brian has been interviewed by The New York Times, ESPN, Fox
Sports, and The Power Hour radio program.
