I am reading this Book: How Footbal Explains America by Sal Paolintono, and It freaking rocks. Its a history lesson in football, politics, and America with new and old stuff. Ever since this game i have had a new apperciation of the gridiron greats of old and this is book just makes it better. Its an easy read im gonna finish it after 2 days. Whats best is there is some lineage stuff from Laundry to Billicheck and other guys. Read this book and more.
PEACE.

I haven't read the book 'How Football Explains America' but if it is an honest book and really addresses the title... i would guess these may be some of the chapters.
Chapter 1: Produce or be fired
Chapter 2: We're all the same color... at least on Sunday
Chapter 3: There is no I in team (but ME is in there)
Chapter 4: White men can't jump, but real fat ones make decent offensive linemen
Chapter 5: Do we get our $100 back if the home team loses?
Chapter 6: Who do I sue if the #1 draft pick is a bust?
Chapter 7: Can we not keep score? (the Detroit Lions may get their feelings hurt)
Chapter 8: When China buys the Bears will the new name really be the Chicago Pandas?
Chapter 9: The recession of 2008 and I just paid $20 to park my car.
Chapter 10: Why you should not go to the bathroom during a 1.5 million dollar Super Bowl commercial.
Chapter 11: For every one that made it, there are 26,827 that didn't.
Chapter 12: Life is short. This is your 2 minute warning.
