Reviews
Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc.
"I'm a winaholic" is Anderson's response to why he suddenly took leave from his Detroit Tigers' managerial post during a miserable 1989 season. In retrospect he views it as a case of success not only breeding success but an obsession with winning as well. Consequently, when faced with defeat, he decided on a respite. What follows this opening bit of soul-searching is an extended commentary on teams, players, fans, owners, etc., that is noteworthy for its consistently praiseworthy tone. As a manager, Anderson avoids public belittlement of his players, a practice he extends to almost everyone in the business. Fans should find this state-of-the-manager report reassuring, coming from one of the most respected men in the game.
