Customer Review: First off - do not purchase this book for your child thinking "He likes football - here is something he will like". No. This book is a true inside look into the locker room & private (formerly private) lives of NFL prima donna's. Lot's of stories about everything available to NFL superstars and... more info
Customer Review: I ordered this book for my husband as a Christmas gift. He is enjoying reading it and is learning some things he didn't know about this part of football. I would recommend this book to any guy who is into football and its history.

Customer Review: As a huge Colts fan, I was extremely excited to finally get my copy of one of the greatest games the NFL has ever seen. However, just a few pages into the book, I realize that this book is just a poor compilation of a bunch of other books, and was poorly written at that. I was very disappointed to... more info
Customer Review: The pictures were fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed taking a trip down memory lane in college football. It brought back memories of college football as I remember it back in the 40s and 50s when I was growing up.
Customer Review: I thought the actual story of the family was great. But the writing was a little rambling and included too many repeat stories. The story could have been pieced together a lot better.
