Featured Reviews
As someone who grew up a Philadelphia sports fan, this book hit me. These are the moments my buddies and I talked—and still talk—about. ‘What If’ isn’t just a sports book; it flips the entire script of Philly sports history on its head. Each chapter is a trip through memory lane, with a twist. You won’t be able to put it down.
—Ross Tucker, CBS NFL analyst
Giglio offers a thoughtful look at some of the most impactful pivot points in Philadelphia sports history. You'll find yourself nodding in agreement one minute and boiling over in frustration the next. This book is a must read for any Philly fan who has argued with friends about what could have been.
—Sheil Kapadia, The Ringer
What if a top rated sports talk host came up with a phenomenal book idea, and an even better read? One that once I picked it up, I wasn’t able to put it down. I’d be telling everyone I knew about it the minute I finished.
—Michael Barkann, NBC Sports Philadelphia
