"Part time machine, part fax machine, this book brings the '90s vividly back to life, with all the insight and hindsight of the athletes who made the era so memorable. Finkel makes a strong case that 1996, like 1776, was revolutionary."

"When I found out I was going to be a dad I thought, ‘Can I handle it? . . .’ Reading Finkel and Eddy's The Life of Dad will help you relax and know that it’s worked out for all these amazing dads, and it’ll work out for you."

"From the very minute my orange and blue, my New York Knickerbockers drafted Nate Robinson, I was a big fan of his. I even wore his game-worn road blue #4 jersey at Madison Square Garden. . . . Us little guys gotta stick together. Please read and enjoy Nate’s journey with Finkel. Once a Knick, always a Knick. (P.S. we should have never traded him in the first place.)"

"From Griffey and Prime Time to Jordan and Jeter, 1996 serves as a Vegas-style buffet of sports legend. Years come, years go. But Jon Finkel's masterpiece proves that, on rare occasion, some 365-day spans are worth bronzing in gold."

"The basketball brotherhood in Seattle is just different. There's such a deep connection with each other and their city. I really enjoyed that feeling and I was happy to be apart of it. This story Finkel tells in Hoops Heist of the culture of basketball in Seattle is so pure."
