A great book for all Dallas Cowboy Fans!!!
I got this book as a Christmas gift since Brad Sham's book "Stadium Stories" had been sold out in the local stores--and I can highly recommend this book to all who want to hear the inside story of how Cliff Harris and Charlie Waters made the club, and some of the inside stories about the players and front office people. Among those are how Gil Brandt, director of player personnel, wheeled and ...

Break Point: The Secret Diary of a Pro Tennis Player

Dan Markowitz
Sports Publishing, Inc., 2008
Fun read
I read this as the Mom of a junior player wondering what my son's passion for tennis might lead to if he stays with it and does well. This book is the closest to describing the day-to-day life a rising pro player would lead. The grueling travel schedule, being alone in hotel rooms without friends to console you when things go bad. Vince wrote the book as if he were chatting with you- ...
Pittsburgh Steelers: Men of Steel
3 reviews
Jim Wexell
Sports Publishing, 2006
The way history should be told
This is not a typical boring history book. It is a fun history book. Wex wrote a collection of mini-biographies of the men who made the Steelers. But he did not limit the book to just Steeler stars from the past, he also included players that were lesser known. The stories are told by the players themselves. Growing up in the 70s, I would study the Steeler all-time leaders lists and read ...

Sports Publishing LLC, 2008
A Must Read for Any Swimmer or Parent
Although this book leaves swim training to the coaches, this book offers the incredible journey of Michael Phelps from childhood swimming to the 2004 Olympics. As a college swimmer, it was a relief to read about his training and see similarities with my own. He offers lessons for life that are necessary for any young athlete. Phelps had help writing the book, but his words and experiences ...

A Chance to Win: A Complete Guide to Physical Training for Football

Mike Gentry
Sports Publishing LLC, 2005
Great training
I have bought several 'bodybuilding' books from Amazon over the past 6 months, expecting a full body transformation. What happened was that I ran into a lot of thoeries on working out which often contradicted one another (HIT vs. Periodization) and it occured to me that I hadn't found what I was looking for. I then concentrated on athletic performance as my goal instead of just 'looks' that the ...
Terry Funk: More Than Just Hardcore

Terry Funk
Sports Publishing, 2006
Worth Every Penny!!!
I picked up this book because of how Mick Foley has talked up Terry Funk in his previous two books (Have A Nice Day & Foley Is Good). I've become somewhat of a late Terry Funk fan thanks to Mick Foley. I've missed out on some of Terry's best days and best matches (notice to WWE - get moving on a Terry Funk dvd!) so I must admit to being weary heading into reading this book. I was very ...

But in "Game of My Life", Bob gets us inside the minds of some truly great Eagles players, some of whom played on that 1960 team. We get to read about Tommy McDonald's recollections of playing in Philly, and you may be surprised by the game he picks as the ...

Dad loved it!
I didn't personally read this book but I got it for my dad for Father's Day and he really loved it. My dad has been a Phillies fan through thick and thin (mostly thin!) and my guess is that if you are too, you'll enjoy this book.

Ball Four : The Final Pitch
92 reviews
Jim Bouton
Sports Publishing, 2000
the first to expose how players used the groupies
Jim Bouton is a very bright man who probably could have been a scientist if he didn't go into baseball. In the 1960s when he played nobody wrote colorful exposes of the behind the scenes and road trip life of major league ball players. Bouton was the first with this book. It ended many friendships with teammates and probably broke up his marriage. The book might seem tame by todays standard. ...
Walking Together Forever: The Broad Street Bullies, Then and Now

Jim Jackson
Sports Publishing LLC, 2005
Great reading, whether you loved 'em or hated 'em!
During the 70s I was a rabid New York Ranger fan and hated the Broad Street bullies with a passion. My biggest thrill was seeing Dave Schultz get his clock cleaned (which unfortunately didn't happen too often). Consequently I approached this book with a little trepidation since I was expecting a Stan Fischler type of read promoting the Flyers as a flawless group of men who put everything ...

Mike Fitzgerald
Sports Publishing LLC, 2004
Definitive biography on The Old Mongoose
"Ageless Warrior" is a definitive account on the life of boxing legend Archie Moore. Author Mike Fitzgerald masterfully weaves Moore's 200-plus fights and his personal life into an engaging and evenly-tempered biography. Until now, most books written on Moore tended not to let the facts get in the way of a good story. Fitzgerald, with the cooperation of Archie Moore and his immediately family, ...
