“If the truth is to be found in humor - and it is - then let Will Leitch lead our people’s revolution. He’s everything that’s right and funny and true in American sports.” - Jeff MacGregor, Sports Illustrated special contributor and author of Sunday Money
“Leitch balances potent humor with sharp and sometimes vicious insight without lapsing into clichés. He manages to be an astute sports critic while maintaining his enthusiasm as a fan, making his book an entertaining and enlightening read for anyone who roots for the home team a little too hard.” - Publishers Weekly
“The funniest sports book I have ever read. Yeah, as a member of the mainstream media I should probably despise Will Leitch. But God Saves the Fan is an uproarious, painful, pointed, skittish manifesto on all that’s warped in the world of Lucious Pusey.” - Jeff Pearlman, New York Times bestselling author of The Bad Guys Won!
“If you can’t find something to laugh at and be offended by on the same page of this book, you aren’t reading carefully enough.” - Washington Post Book World
“A witty poke in the eye to the entire sports-industrial complex...A fanfare for the common fan and, if you’re stuck in the cheap seats, easier to read than a website.” - Sports Illustrated
“R-rated, spectacularly irreverent, often mean and just as often piercingly insightful” - Newsday
