‘How many Super Bowls have the Patriots played in?’ Answer: 11
Author Ray Walker steps up to the plate as a sports enthusiast and data expert with this fresh compendium of entertaining and illuminating facts about the New England Patriots. Though everyone knows the team, even those us who are not football aficionados, this well written book flows with facts and trivia that both amaze and entertain. Ray has also written CRAZY SPORTS STORIES, and this book continues his series of Sports Trivia books that include the New York Yankees, the Dallas Cowboys, and the Boston Bruins, so it becomes readily apparent that not only is his knowledge of football keen, but also baseball and hockey.In his introductory comments Ray states, ‘The New England Patriots have made their fans, worldwide, proud ever since joining the American Football League in 960 as the Boston Patriots and the New England Patriots, renamed in 1971 after relocating to Foxborough, Massachusetts following the merger of the AFL and NFL. Patriots fans have loved their team through the worst of seasons, knowing that New England would become a winner one day…’And with that impetus for learning some of the facts about this team, the session (aka ‘game’) begins. Each chapter – Origins and History, Jerseys & Numbers, Patriots Quarterbacks, Pass Receivers, Running Wild, In the Trenches, The Back Seven, Awards and Odds & Ends, Nicknames, Alma Maters, In the Draft Room, The Trading Post, Super Bowl Special, and The Final Quarter – is delivered in the form of quiz questions followed (of course) by quiz answers and embellished by even more trivia in a Did You Know? section.For knowledgeable fans and those who would like to become knowledgeable, this book is a fine resource. Impress friends and acquaintances with in depth knowledge of the sport of Football. Grady Harp, September 20

This Is An Excellent Interesting Book About The New England Patriots Football Team.
I liked this book because I felt that it was an interesting book about the New England Patriots football team. Some of the interesting information that is mentioned in this book includes the following information: The New England Patriots were originally named the Boston Patriots. The New England Patriots reached the Super Bowl nine times while Tom Brady was the starting quarterback. Tom Brady won four Super Bowl MVP awards, more than any other NFL player. The New England Patriots have won the most Super Bowls of any team in the NFL, with six Super Bowl victories. In 1971, the New England Patriots drafted Stanford Quarterback Jim Plunkett. Both of Jim Plunkett's parents were blind. His mother lost her sight at the age of 19 due to scarlet fever. His father lost his sight by being born blind. For those people who want to learn more about the Boston Patriots, this is an excellent book to turn to for interesting information.

Love'em - Hate'em - Learn About the Patriots
Not a fan, but I respect what they've done over the last two decades. I remember when they were the old ___ Patriots and pretty-much losers. This book takes me back to a time when teams played professional football on Sundays with limited TV viewing options and players seemed pleased to be getting paid to play something most of us did for free in vacant fields, and city streets, and dirt lots. With Cancel-Culture the Patriots name may not survive, but I hope it does. Great trivia book! Fun for traveling.

Way more facts and trivia than I expected
This book is packed with multiple choice facts and then combine with "did you know" segments that go into greater detail. I loved both aspects the book offers and was a total page turner. I gave it 4 stars because even though the book is well done and packed with trivia, it leaves much of the history to words and not images. I would have love d to see the team in 60's or even before, and get a better sense of the teams history.

Funny and super interesting!
Some sports trivia books can be dry and really packed full of stats and facts without much humor or action. But *this book* has a fun quiz at the start of every chapter and has a really funny tone of writing throughout. Highly recommend for any true Pats fan!
