Spoiled Sports:
Comical and Disturbing Stories of the 21st Century chronicles the most amusing, unusual, undignified, unethical, and criminal escapades of professional athletes in recent history. Spoiled Sports explodes out of the blocks with beyond-belief stories of ridiculous and shameful behavior by professional athletes.


In addition to these outrageous anecdotes, author and sports fanatic Garret Kolb lines up his “Ingrate 38,” a compilation of the worst of the worst professional athletes of the twenty-first century and what they did to earn such ill repute. The book sprints to the finish as the reader is invited to take the SpAT (Spoiled Aptitude Test), where even a failing grade still makes for a fun run-through of the ridiculous antics of the celebrated athlete.


A quick-hitting book that is hard to put down, Spoiled Sports is an entertaining collection of literary humor and criminal severity that will serve as testimony against what is wrong with many sports heroes today.
