warts-and-all football memoir
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Steve Wright played ball for Bear Bryant at Bama,for Lombardi at Green Bay,with Sonny Jurgensen of the Redskins,et al.He wasn't in a glamour position;as an offensive linesman,he had a fly-on-the wall look at the pro football worldof the late 60s,early70s.His memoirs read like a real version of the already realistic Peter Gent novels.If you want your athletes on pedestals,skip this book--but if you want to read about the real blood,sweat,booze,broads,pills,and road life from an earlier era of pro ball written by a guy with a wry self-knowledge and affection for the whole game,in spite of/because of everything---then this is for you.
