SportsWise Presentations announces a new web site dedicated to sports quotations, sports history and sports trivia by offering challenging sports quizzes.

They are the brainchild of sports biographer and author Bill Cairo. The site, pubtz.com, offers multiple quizzes: college and pro football, baseball, college and pro basketball, golf, hockey and the Heisman award. No ads or pop-ups, just sports quizzes. Cairo says, “Fans enjoy quizzes because, like sports, there is the opportunity to test one’s knowledge and skills. And, with the SportsWise quizzes, they can win something.”

Cairo is the author of The Story Behind the Glory: Winning Quotes from Sports Greats on the Game of Life, now in print, which features great sports quotations and the stories behind them. Enough sports history and trivia to satisfy any true sports fan are woven into the stories, which are the source for many of the facts and history in the quizzes.

Why quizzes? It is Cairo’s way of celebrating sports. Each one is designed to challenge, entertain and enlighten. After taking the quiz, participants are graded and the answers revealed. Fans can take the quizzes again and again, as the ten questions are drawn randomly from a larger pool. Prove your fanhood by scoring eight of ten correct and win a free copy of Cairo’s book, The Story Behind the Glory, including free shipping. Bring your best game, as they are not for casual fans–unless they want to learn something about the sports they love. Visit www.pubtz.com and click on the Quizzes tab.

About SportsWise Presentations: Sports biographer and quotation fanatic Bill Cairo compiled hundreds of memorable sports quotations and provided the history behind the men who uttered them. Unlike books with simple lists of quotes, or lengthy biographies with great quotations buried in the text, Cairo brings out the best of both in a concise account of each hero’s career.
