It’s the Holiday season and I’m sure that some of you are searching for the perfect gift for that special sports lover in your family. Well, I’m here to help. I just happen to have a list of sports books that have come out during the past year that’ll be sure to fill the gaping hole (that beer and a hours of therapy obviously can‘t) of any sports fan on your holiday shopping list this season. Whether it’s a hardcore college football fan, or that Timberwolves fan that you just can’t seem to talk off the roof, there is a book on this list for fans of all shapes and sizes.*
