Back in the GameThis sequel to SportsFan Chronicles proves that the more things change the more they stay the same. Best friends Kurt and Brian hit it big when they won the largest lottery jackpot in the country-half of it, anyway. They decided to combine their winnings with the other winner: Frank, their hated former boss. They reluctantly joined forces with their enemy in order to fulfill their lifelong dream of owning an NFL team.The good news is they're now filthy rich. The bad news is they're still hundreds of millions of dollars short of the amount needed to purchase a team. Making huge business deals is their only option, and these guys are willing to invest in almost anything as long as it makes them more money, including reality shows, technology startups, and hilarious inventions. Their large windfall magnifies everything in their lives, especially the fun...at least when Victor isn't getting them beat up by jealous football players or when Bernie isn't screwing up their exercise video. Chuck's constant pranks and Alice (annoying best friend of Kurt's longtime love, Darci) keep Kurt on his toes. Even the reviled Frank and his underachieving nephew, Meathead, seem to be fitting in nicely. Things suddenly change when someone in their inner circle betrays them and compromises their chances of buying the football team. The depth of the betrayal is stunning, but they take no time to analyze it. Instead they remap their path, try to overcome the obstacles, and move on in their own inimitable style of staunch friendship, ambition, and humor.The unexpected is no stranger to Kurt, but even he finds himself at a loss to explain the surprising turn of events and the shocking, too strange to be believed twist in the end.
