Cohen team up with some of America’s greatest* comedy writers to tell you everything and nothing about America’s sport!**\n\n*“greatest” is actually just a bad type-o for “mediocre”\n\n**No, not darts, we mean pro football. (book on professional darts coming never)\n\nDid you know . . .\n\nTom Brady is a very good quarterback. (True, but only according to statistics and accomplishments.)\n\nThe formation of the NFL took place in an auto dealership. The founders started an institution and also were convinced to buy rust-proofing for it. (Half true.)\n\nThe Carolina Panthers originated as a book club but turned to football when they couldn’t agree on which John Grisham novel to read. (Maybe true. Research isn’t our thing.)\n\nThe Occasionally Accurate Annals of Football is a love letter to America’s favorite game, full of highlights, history, great plays and players, scandals, Super Bowls, and a series of lies, idiotic theories, baseless conspiracies, a diet that may kill you and, of course, a poorly-written haiku. The book takes the credibility Dan Patrick has built up over a stellar broadcast career (ESPN, NBC Sports, something called “Peacock”) and risks it all with these falsehoods, half-truths, and even some quarter-truths.\n\nThis parade of inanity is co-written by Joel H. Cohen (3 Emmys, several cavities due to poor flossing) and includes contributions from certifiably hilarious people, such as:\n\nAndy Richter (Late Night with Conan O’Brien)\n\nBrian Kelley (The Simpsons, Saturday Night Live)\n\nChuck Tatham (Modern Family, Arrested Development, How I Met Your Mother)\n\nMike Price (The Simpsons, F is for Family)\n\nDonick Cary (Silicon Valley, New Girl)\n\nChristine Nangle (Inside Amy Schumer, Saturday Night Live)\n\nBroti Gupta (The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Simpsons)\n\nRob Cohen (Saturday Night Live, Big Bang Theory)\n\nIllustrated in two colors (black and white are colors, right?) The Occasionally Accurate Annals of Football informs (a little), entertains (a lot), and is the perfect gift to taunt the Jets fans in your life.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1637743688\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1637743688.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Patrick, Dan|Cohen, Joel H.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
