Whose stories make up the top tier of autobiographies by former coaches/players/referees?

 

Phil Jackson's "Eleven Rings" and Sugar Ray Leonard's "The Big Fight" are my two current favorites.

 

Also:

 

Which current coaches/players/referees will "pen" a good one when they retire?

 

Tom Brady, Kobe Bryant, and Michelle Wie are a few I'm interested in now, but alone at the top of my list is Russ Westbrook and his torching of KD. That should be an explosive read.

 

Recommendations and predictions alike are welcome.

For entertainment, John Daly's autobiography was interesting.

If you like poker, Stu Ungar's and Amarillo Slim's were very good.

Drive by Larry Bird was pretty good.

 

Going to pick up Woody Hayes: A Reflection by Paul Hornung this weekend.
