UPDATE #4: We have all our winners! UPDATE #3: MORE HINTS ADDED! UPDATE #2: More clues added… UPDATE: Since no one obviously has a freaking clue on the celebs below I have added some hints.

Contest time again! Here’s your chance to win a sweet prize! Feel free to enter each contest… (NOTE: Winners in the last 30 days are ineligible to win these prizes.)

Prize #1: Cooperstown Confidential
List price: $25.00

Celebrated author and journalist Zev Chafets stirs the echoes at the Hall and exposes the revealing anecdotes and gross hypocrisies of this sacred American institution in his controversial new book Cooperstown Confidential: Heroes, Rogues, and The Inside Story of The Baseball Hall of Fame. It is a book so thoroughly researched, deftly crafted and brilliantly delivered that you know it will draw defensive criticism from all corners of the baseball world.

Chafets breaks through the bronze facades and discusses the true nature and questionable character of Hall-of-Fame trailblazers like Ty Cobb, Tris Speaker, Rogers Hornsby, Cap Anson and Babe Ruth, while he celebrates the exploits of honorable early Hall-of-Famers like Christy Mathewson, Honus Wagner, Walter Johnson, and Connie Mack. He exposes the anti-heroes of sportsmanship like Grover Cleveland Alexander, Dizzy Dean, Gaylord Perry and Mickey Mantle, while praising Ted Williams and Hank Greenberg. He sheds light on the dubious integrity of a host of others including Lefty Grove, Jimmie Foxx, Joe McCarthy, John McGraw, Hack Wilson, Leo Durocher, Kirby Puckett, and the quintessential saint of Americana, Joe DiMaggio, while he examines the true integrity of men like Cal Ripken and Tony Gwynn.

A must-have for every baseball fan. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. –on 205th magazine

The books in this series don’t just entertain. These provide in-depth sports writing that will resonate with the hardcore sports fan as well as the sports neophyte looking for a quick study.
