Curtis Beall has led such a marvelous life! What a great read. It's funny, sweet, a peek into Southern America's past and just overall entertaining. Anyone who is a Bulldog fan or war vet will enjoy this one!

Funny book, spooky accurate, knows his/their (?) stuff. It's clever. Lots of hilarious lists--items that are in a woman's bathroom and kitchen compared to a man's are spot on. And for bicoastals, lists of NYC vs LA, plus white collar vs white trash, and on and on. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a good laugh. Good stocking stuffer for the holidays...

Michel Vick had it all. First pick in the 2001 NFL Draft, Michael signed for $62 million when he was only 20 years old. Growing up with little money, Michael was surely overwhelmed. But more importantly, Michael's character was apparently impeccable at that time. His coach said of Michael Vick, "He's kind and polite and he is a good person."

Unfortunately, as we know from recent news events, something changed along the way. The Why is a big mystery. As has been reported, money made from dogfighting is peanuts compared to the money Michael made in the NFL.

This book by Jeff Savage, who always writes of sports stars only if they are good role models, was published in 2006. The Big Fall came later in 2007.

This book is a good, accurate accounting of Michael's life up to 2005. Mr.
Savage always lets us inside the athlete by including comments from family and coaches. In the back is a Glossary and a "further reading and websites" for more information on the NFL and Michael Vick.

Great color photos throughout the book enhance the story.

This book has an Accelerated Reader quiz..RL is 4.0.

All books in Jeff Savage's Amazing Athletes are perfect for reluctant readers!

yes Michael Vick made a terrible mistake and it is gonna cost him for a long,long time,but at the same time he deserves another chance and I truly believe he will get another one. he is a very talented Athlete and He has a chance to make a even bigger comeback story. this Book focus is on his athletic ability and the impact he has made thus far on the football field. He is a Human Being and once he pays his debt to Society and makes amends then he deserves another chance.

I wasn't sure I'd like a book about monkeys, but this book is exciting and funny. And it makes you think about how people treat animals. I would recommend this book to anyone over 10.

IT is a great book on the history an accomplishments of the minnesota vikings. it talks about their all-stars in the hall of fame. it is a great "biography " of the vikings.

Mr. Berkow has an understanding of both the sports world and its players, and here presents a range of essays on sports activities and minority experiences, from Muhammad Ali to Michael Jordan. Fans of sports and those interested in minority contributions to sports will find Minority Quarterback And Other Lives In Sport involving.

THIS BOOK COVERS THE 2 MIRACLES CONCERNING THE JETS AND METS OF 1969, WHO BOTH PULLED OF MAJOR UPSETS. HOW THEY ACCOMPLISHED THIS IS WRITTEN IN DETAIL AND DESCRIBES BOTH THE PLAYOFFS AND REGULAR SEASON. ALSO TELLS US HOW EACH TEAM WAS ASSEMBLED AND A BRIEF HISTORY. I STRONGLY SUGGEST THIS FOR ALL METS JETS AND SPORTS FANS WHO TRULY BELIEVE THAT THE UNDERDOG ALWAYS HAS A CHANCE. VERY GOOD.

This is a great book. It not only gives you every aspect of the offense, you also get a history lesson at the beginning. I highly recommend it. The new twists to the offense makes it unique for any coach.
