Being a professional athlete isn't easy. Sure, they have money, ice-sculpture busts of themselves, and free use of team whirlpool facilities for their extramarital liaisons. But they also have obnoxious fans, conniving groupies desperate to get pregnant, and hardass coaches. Luckily, Drew Magary has written MEN WITH BALLS, the first handbook specifically for professional athletes. It includes tips on how to:
--Recover from rookie hazing rituals like the "Broomstick Olympics"
--Showboat using classical pantomime techniques
--Respond to Internet rumors about your sexual inadequacies
Featuring (made-up) advice from notable sports figures and scores of sophomoric yet informative illustrations, MEN WITH BALLS is essential reading for any athlete who wants to avoid prison, paying child support, or playing in Utah.

Review:
"Profane, beyond naughty, and, I have to say, just damn funny." "Buzz Bissinger, author of Friday Night Lights, A Prayer for the City, and Three Nights in August""

"Men with Balls is funny, completely uninformative, and horrifyingly profane. In short: the perfect book." "Michael Schur, cofounder of FireJoeMorgan.com and Co-Executive Producer of The Office""

"Extremely funny. And I'm not just saying that because Drew gives me free mustache rides every Thursday." "Jay Chandrasekhar, founder of Broken Lizard and cowriter and director of Super Troopers, Club Dread, and Beerfest""

"Drew Magary possesses a keen insight into pro sports' unyielding loads of crap. "Men with Balls" oozes with, well, balls." "Jeff Pearlman, author of Boys Will Be Boys and The Bad Guys Won!""

"Men with Balls is a terrifyingly astute takedown of pro sports masquerading as brilliant satire." "Stefan Fatsis, author of A Few Seconds of Panic and Word Freak""

"One of the funniest books I've ever read--the product of a meticulously demented mind. Required reading for anyone who loves sports, and any athlete who knows how to read." "Will Leitch, author of God Save the Fan and founder of Deadspin""

"I hope to one day write a book that is even comparable to "Men with Balls." It is definitely a must-read." "Chris Cooley, Pro Bowl tight end, Washington Redskins""
Book Description:
The funniest sports book since Ball Four-a mock guide to superstar-level behaviour in all sports, from Drew Magary of Kissing Suzy Kolber.
