DON'T YOU KNOW IT!

"It's only after 50 when everything starts to sag. Then you start sitting on your balls and you can't wear boxer shorts anymore."
Phil Esposito Thunder And Lightning

Probably the best hockey bio I've ever read (and I've read a lot).

And from personal experience...the song he really can't stand, and I quote..."I hate this fucking song!" is 'Thunderstruck' by AC/DC which was played way too many times at the Lakeland Center when the Lightning used to hold training camp there back in the 90s. But a really nice guy, who autographed both this book, and his earlier autobio also.
Thanks Phil, you'll always be one of the best in my book...
