READ ALL ABOUT IT!! North Carolina Beats Kansas University in 1957 NCAA Finals--TRIPLE OT!!!

I just finished reading, "The Best Game Ever" (How Frank McGuire's '57 Tar Heels beat Wilt and Revolutionized College Basketball).  It was a wonderful read and I recommend it.  BUT then.... I'm a sucker for sport books with understated titles.  Looking around my office I see;

  • The Greatest Game Ever Played ('86 Mets/Astros)
  • The Perfect Game ('85 Villanova/Georgetown)
  • The Greatest Year in Sports (1941)
  • The Last Great Game ('92 Duke/Kentucky)
  • The Horse God Built (Secretariat)
  • When It Was Just a Game ('67 Packers/Chiefs)
  • Game Six ('75 Reds/Red Sox)
  • The Last Nine Innings (2001 Diamondbacks/Yankees)
  • One Pitch Away ('86 League Championships/World Series)
  • The Best Game Ever ('58 Colts/Giants)
  • The Worst Call Ever (umpires, refs and officials)
In my mind these are all 1st Round Draft Choices.

HistoryKC.com loves that the just completed '57 Tar Heels/Wilt book weaves in Kansas City, Dean Smith, Wilt, Phog, Municipal Auditorium, Iowa State, Max Falkenstein, The Big Seven Holiday Tournament, Gene Elstun, Roy Williams and Allen Fieldhouse.
