“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
“R-rated, spectacularly irreverent, often mean and just as often piercingly insightful” — Newsday
“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
“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
“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
“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!
