Story4.5 out of 5 stars 842
Several years ago, Sam Walker set out to answer one of the most hotly debated questions in sports: What are the greatest teams of all time? He devised a formula, then applied it to thousands of teams from leagues all over the world, from the NBA to the English Premier League to Olympic field hockey. When he was done, he had a list of the 16 most dominant teams in history. At that point he became obsessed with another, more complicated question: What did these freak teams have in common?

How to be a quack

This book just rubbed me the wrong way. It seemed like a how to guide for separating unhappy people from their money. I wouldn't waste my time on this one.
