Inspirational book by former Georgia Tech player and coach Bill Curry on ten men who influenced his life through the game of football. Very interesting for Georgial Tech, Packers, and Colts fans. I enjoyed his stories on former Tech coach Bobby Dodd and on Johnny Unitas and Bart Starr, two of my favorite players from my childhood. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
No sport rivals football for building character. In the scorching heat of two-a-days and the fierce combat of the gridiron, true leaders are born. Just ask Bill Curry, whose credentials for exploring the relationship between football and leadership include two Super Bowl rings and the distinction of having snapped footballs to Bart Starr and Johnny Unitas. In Ten Men You Meet in the Huddle, Curry shares the wit, wisdom, and tough love of teammates and coaches who turned him from a next-to-last NFL draft pick into a two-time Pro Bowler. Learning from such giants as Vince Lombardi and Don Shula, Ray Nitschke and Bubba Smith, Bobby Dodd and even the indomitable George Plimpton, Curry led a football life of nonstop exploration packed with adventure and surprise. Blessed with irresistible characters, rich personal history, and a strong, simple, down-to-earth voice, Ten Men You Meet in the Huddle proves that football is much more than a game. It’s a metaphor for life. From the Trade Paperback edition. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

Actually, a heartwarming book on a violent sport. If you're a fan of football, you'll find some great stories - especially if you are a Packer fan. I do consider this more than a book on football. It actually feels a lot like a coming-of-age book of not only growing up to be a man - but a better man. ( )
