Here's a list of football books, I did back in 2008. I can't believe I picked the Chargers to go to the Superbowl. They're awful in the playoffs.
I wanted to highlight a few titles, that I loved. Please don't sleep on any of them, they're all very good and go beyond the field.

Football season is my least favorite time. My hubby spends all of Sunday afternoon watching the games. I'll check out some of those books. Maybe it will help me be more in tune with this time of year.
Doret, you are one insane sports fanatic! :--) We sure do benefit from your combined love of sports and books, but I wouldn't want to have to live with you and try to get a chance with the remote to watch something else!!!! LOL
Jeannine football is fun to watch wants you get the hang of it.
Jill- I've been known to flip from a game to a lifetime movie like it ain't no thing. Though that was back in the day when lifetime movies were good.
