NOTE: Brian and I recorded our conversation the day before the Milwaukee Brewers clinched the National League pennant and go on to play in the World Series. I thought it was a good time to speak with Brian Tuohy about corruption in Sports Entertainment Leagues. Professional sports in America: it's all about fair play and winning championships. At least that's the spin. But could it be a massive showbiz operation run by greedy owners, crooked referees, and coddled players, all with the unstated goal of making as much money as possible? Author Brian Tuohy provides a fully sourced saga of the corruption that has infected the storied histories of the NBA, MLB, NFL, NHL, and NASCAR. With reality obscured by a complacent and often complicit sports media, The Fix Is In shines a light on a hidden history of clandestine arrangements between television networks and sports leagues, all against a background of drinking, drugging, gambling and crime. Finally, here's a book that unflinchingly examines the sordid underbelly of the American sports entertainment industry.
