“Since 1963, my friend Phil Schaefer has been in and around locker rooms of the greatest athletes:  the Braves, the Falcons, the Hawks, the old Atlanta Flames, and the Georgia Bulldogs have ever known.  You need to read this book.  I know you will enjoy it.”

“Phil was as much of a mainstay in the Braves clubhouse as Maddux, Glavine, and Smoltz.  His insight and knowledge of the game made him a trusted ‘one of the guys.’ A true professional and an even better friend.”

Jeff Blauser

Atlanta Braves Shortstop


“Phil Schaefer helps us relive exciting moments in southeastern sports history.  There is no one more qualified to chronicle these events than Phil.  He brought them to us the first time, and now he brings them back to life for us again.  This time, from an insider’s perspective.”

Dale Murphy

1982, 1983 National League MVP


“Phil Schaefer was involved with the Bulldog nation for over 3 decades.  He has some great stories and insights from the Vince Dooley era in his book, Sins of a Southern Sportscaster.

“No one person was in touch with the growth of Atlanta sports more than Phil.  To this day, Phil and his wife give back to the Atlanta community by bringing the athletes from the past and present together to benefit others.  Never selfish, Phil has always put his love for Atlanta first.  I have received many awards over my career, but the compliments I have received from Phil on my high school sports achievements are certainly at the top.”

Kevin Butler

"Every year when I came to Augusta, one of the familiar faces I enjoyed seeing and one of the people I always looked forward to talking to was Phil Schaefer. Phil was just one of the good guys who's been going to the Masters almost as long as I have and has interviewed me countless times--each time with noticeable ease and professionalism, and unspoken trust."
