Have you ever wondered how differently your life would have
turned out had you been daring and went against all the
conventional rules? Angelo Saverino was about to find out,
the hard way. When as a 30-something he suddenly found
himself thrust into the world of professional sports.
Saverino gives the reader a first hand account of life as a
professional sports agent. He tells what really happens in the
clubhouse, behind closed doors. The story is told with a no
holds barred approach, bringing the reader into a world few
people ever get to visit.
This is not just the story of one man’s experiences as a sports
agent or his years as a young baseball fan. It is about how his
early life, in a very Sicilian household in the Italian
neighborhood of New York’s East Harlem influenced his
business decisions and adult life in general. While it took
fortitude for Saverino to leave a stable job and start a new
career, it also required the support of his family. Saverino
credits his success to the encouragement and faith given him
by his family.
Quite often the term ‘heart of the order’ is used to describe the
three best hitters on a baseball team. The term is synonymous
with strength, excellence and devotion. Saverino uses the
term to describe the people who truly made it all happen, his
grandparents. They came from distant and far off places with
names like Piazza Armerina, Corleone and Palermo.
