Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past few season have not been kind to Cincinnati, but Bengals fans are a hardy group and there is no stronger refrain around the sports-crazed town than "Wait till next year!" Sam Wyche's Tales from the Cincinnati Bengals Sideline provides plenty to tide the fans over until then. Contained within these pages is a revealing look at the stories--some legendary, some previously unheard--from the 35-year history of the franchise. The introduction of the no-huddle, the sideline huddle, and all their variations put a lot of pressure on television broadcasters and NFL officials, as well as opposing defenses. More than a mere Bengals primer, these tales delve into the many memorable incidents, from barring woman from the locker room to the infamous comments heard over the public address system reminding fans that they live in Cincinnati, not Cleveland. The Cincinnati Bengals have done what 16 current NFL teams have been unable to do--they have fought their way into two Super Bowls. In fact, seven existing teams have never made it to the big game at all. Sam Wyche's Tales from the Cincinnati Bengals Sideline gives Cincinnati fans who yearn for the good ol' days of the 1981 and 1988 AFC championship seasons cause to celebrate once more.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The San Francisco 49ers shaped the NFL throughout the 1980s with their unique blend of precision, panache, and preparation. Two decades later, NFL teams are still copying the system and the methods that made the 49ers unlike any other organization in professional sports. Running back Roger Craig exemplified the qualities that have produced five Super Bowl titles for the franchise. Craig starred in three of the 49ers' Super Bowl wins, helping set the tone in practice with his nonpareil work ethic. During his eight seasons with the team he was one of the most productive players in franchise history. Roger Craig's combination of skills was something never before seen in professional football. In 1985 he became the first player in NFL history to top 1,000 yards rushing and receiving in the same season. He used his knee-churning, eyes-wide-open style to earn four trips to the Pro Bowl and score a Super Bowl-record three touchdowns in one game. After finishing his career with the Raiders and Vikings, he signed a contract with the 49ers in 1994 so that he could retire as a member of the organization. To this day he remains a 49ers icon who is as well respected by the current team as he was more than a decade ago when he was charging through opposing defenses. In Tales from the San Francisco 49ers Sideline Roger Craig uses his trademark vision to capture some of the moments that defined the organization during its glory years. Included are stories about all of the men who shaped the direction of the franchise, including such luminaries as Bill Walsh, Joe Montana, Steve Young, Ronnie Lott, Jerry Rice, and George Seifert. Fans will relive all the great moments and read some never-before-toldstories from a man kept his eyes open to everything during his fascinating career.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ohio coaching legend Paul Brown said he wanted to create the New York Yankees of pro football when he assembled the Cleveland Browns from scratch in 1946. Not even the future Hall of Fame coach, however, could have foreseen 10 league championship appearances and seven titles in the team's first 10 years. That excellence and professional dominance cultivated a national fan base that has since crossed international boundaries. Elvis Presley, President John F. Kennedy, and Hank Aaron counted themselves as Browns fans. More than 50 years later, Browns Backers Worldwide is the largest organized fan club in professional sports, with over 265 chapters and 27,000 members worldwide. In Tales from the Cleveland Browns Sideline, Cleveland native and veteran football writer Tony Grossi recalls the personalities that sowed one of the NFL's proudest traditions and the characters who have continued to grow it. Grossi discloses the unlikely origin of the Marion Motley trap play and the talents that Otto Graham never used on the football field. Fans can read the scout's inside story behind the mad dog in the meat market' and the general manager's insult that launched Brian Sipe's rise from a 13th-round draft pick to the league's Most Valuable Player. Tales from the Cleveland Browns Sideline reveals who first called his defensive teammates Dawgs and why teammates stayed as far away as possible from Steve Everitt's locker. From Jim Brown to Ben Gay, from Glue Fingers Lavelli to Turkey Jones, the colorful characters who wore the plain white uniforms and blank orange helmets are captured like never before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Football League in Nashville, Tennessee? It'll never happen. That's what they used to say. These days, it's hard to imagine the Music City without the Titans. Much has happened since the Houston Oilers packed up and left Texas for Tennessee following the 1996 season. NFL fans in Nashville had to remain patient. Finally, in 1999, the team moved into the city's downtown stadium, and the winning began. The Titans have been making history ever since. Clearly, it was all worth the wait. Jim Wyatt's Tales from the Titans Sideline takes readers from the early days in Nashville all the way to the present. It reviews the highs and lows of the team--and the players--the city has grown to love over the years. Fans remember the way the Coliseum shook after the Music City Miracle and the heartbreaking finish to Super Bowl XXXIV. Those are among the most memorable moments in the franchise's history that are included in the book. Readers have the chance to find out more about players like quarterback Steve McNair, running back Eddie George, and defensive end Jevon Kearse, all of whom quickly became household names in Tennessee. Coach Jeff Fisher has overseen it all. He managed to keep his team together during the move from the Astrodome to the Liberty Bowl to Vanderbilt Stadium to the Coliseum, keeping the winning ways going through the twists and turns. Tales from the Titans Sideline takes a look at more than just the wins and losses, however. It also provides fans with behind-the-scenes stories surrounding the team, exploring both the lighter and serious sides. What does McNair do to get ready for games? Why is kicker Joe Nedney not welcome in Pittsburgh? Why are birthdays sohush-hush on the Titans? Tales from the Titans Sideline will answer all of those questions and many more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plenty of sports franchises have stories that flow from hopelessness to prosperity. That was the backdrop when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers became world champions, but how many others had to perform with an accompanying laugh track? How many used the number one overall draft pick on a player (Bo Jackson) who surveyed the scene, shrugged his shoulders, and decided to play baseball? How many essentially gave away their battered and star-crossed quarterback (Steve Young), suddenly jump-starting his route to the Hall of Fame? How many had a coach (John McKay), who, when asked what he thought of his team's execution, wryly replied, I'm in favor of it? How many work in an antiquated training facility (One Buc Place) that hosts exterminators more often than the owners? For nearly a generation, they were the Yucks. Then they transformed themselves from frogs into princes. Tales from the Bucs Sideline is their story, warts and all. From winless wonders to world champions, from hapless players too embarrassed to show their faces in public to superstars who are constantly in your face. One and off the field, this is the story of how a franchise can transform from woeful to wonderful, complete with all the unforgettable (and forgettable) moments and characters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are probably as many stories from the Green Bay Packers sideline as there are fans of one of the country's most storied sports franchises. That's what Tales from the Packers Sideline is all about.Since the earliest days of professional football, the Packers have been as much a part of the game as the ball itself-from Curly Lambeau to Johnny "Blood" McNally; from Bart Starr to Ray Nitschke; from the Ice Bowl to Vince Lombardi to Mike Holmgren and Brett Favre. Some of the stories will feel as familiar and comfortable as tailgating at Lambeau Field on a gorgeous October morning. Others will be new to even the most avid Packers fan. But hopefully, all will bring back special memories and reveal a part of what makes the Green Bay Packers more than just a football team.This is a franchise that has grown up with the country, and everyone has a favorite Packers story. From odd pregame rituals to controversial coaching decisions to strange players to the details behind what made a great game a truly great game, the stories are there to be told-and Tales from the Packers Sideline does just that.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A de facto American national holiday and phenomenon, the Super Bowl claims a spot as one of the most significant sporting events in the world and the most widely celebrated, feasted and feasting event of the year— with $14+ billion at stake, commercials costing $7 million for a 30-second spot, record-setting broadcast ratings, and 113+ million viewers. More avocados (105 million pounds) are consumed, and more beer is drunk (325 million gallons) on the single day of Superbowl Sunday. But there is much more at play than partying at our annual sports extravaganza, as this scholarly researched yet readable volume demonstrates: Here you will read a historical perspective that includes discussions of the meta-event’s economics (stakeholders, host cities, advertising, gambling, and media), fandom, ratings, halftime entertainment, the roles of mythic spectacle and religion, football’s sexist, militaristic language, gender issues like cheerleaders and sex trafficking, the Puppy Bowl, medical concerns like concussions and violence, tailgating and foodie ideas—all along with tidbits about your favorite team(s) and player(s).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ideal for fans of the Mark of a Lion series and Bill Parcells Pro football chronicle of the New York Jets Covers the successes and losses of the Jets For over 55 seasons, the New York Jets have not enjoyed large doses of pride and glory. Yes, Joe Namath led them to a stunning Super Bowl III upset victory in 1968. But since then, the Jets have gone back and forth between maddening and entertaining, bumbling and embarrassing, and constantly teasing their fierce fan base. At this point, rather sadistically, the rollercoaster of rooting for the Jets has become a way of life. In Tales from the New York Jets Sideline, author Mark Cannizzaro brings his readers on a journey. Readers and author travel through Cannizzaro’s eyes and the eyes of the subjects he has covered, throughout the maze of musings, controversial coincidences, and the occasional brilliance that the Jets have displayed during the years the author has followed the franchise. This includes their consecutive AFC Championship Game losses in 2009 and 2010 and the following struggles, adding to the former angst and teases Jets fans have felt since Joe Willie’s memorable triumph.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people may not know that Boston College’s most embarrassing football defeat may have saved the lives of hundreds of Eagles fans. They also may not know that Doug Flutie failed to see a wide-open receiver and instead heaved the ball to an apparently well-covered Gerard Phelan to complete the “Miracle in Miami.” The stories behind those little-known facts and many more are contained in Tales from the Boston College Sideline, an anecdotal history of Boston College football. Author Reid Oslin, who served as Boston College’s sports information director for nearly a quarter of a century, has collected scores of stories about the many accomplishments—and occasional downfalls—of the Boston College Eagles. Material from the University Archives, dozens of personal interviews, and the author’s own up-close recollections will make the newly revised Tales from the Boston College Sideline a valuable resource—as well as enjoyable history—for any BC fan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even in their worst of seasons, the Philadelphia Eagles maintained their tradition of toughness. This toughness is exemplified by the greats who have put on the Eagles uniform-from legends like Chuck Bednarik and Steve Van Buren to modern-day heroes like Reggie White and Donovan McNabb.In Tales from the Eagles Sidelines, veteran football writer Gordon Forbes profiles the individuals who have thrilled Philadelphia fans since the team's inception in 1933 through its recent return to glory with McNabb at the helm. Forbes details how these men become legendary heroes, not only because of the championships they won but because of their hard-knocking style.They were relentless athletes playing in a city that has always appreciated hard, tough performers more than fancy steppers. And when the winter winds arrive and the Eagles are playing for something more than their paychecks, there is a wonderful love affair that spirals in the frosty air between the fans and their "iggles," as the team is called.Tales from the Eagles Sidelines recalls the great players and some of the not-so-great characters told in the form of flashbacks to another time. Some of the stories, like Vince Papale's Rocky-like adventures, are stirring to the soul. Others, like Fred Hill's courageous fight to save his leukemia-stricken daughter, sadden the mind. All of the individual tales, however, share a common bond. They are all about Eagles who wore the green, silver, and white and played in a very special city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This updated edition in the best-selling “Tales from the Sidelines” series captures the memorable moments, colorful characters, outstanding players, and championship seasons that are part of the Broncos’ storied history. Beginning with the franchise’s origins as a charter member of the American Football League in 1960, Andrew Mason takes the reader on a journey that includes a decade of Bronco futility, the AFL-NFL merger, and the team’s first-ever playoff appearance in 1977, when they went all the way to the Super Bowl. Since then, the Denver Broncos have become one of the NFL’s most consistent and successful franchises, with just six losing seasons in the last thirty-seven years. Mason mines the team’s rich history for stories that are revealing, moving, and often hilarious. Examples from the first ten years are “the worst uniforms ever,” the arrival of Lou Saban and Floyd Little, and the story of “Marlin the Magician.” The 70s brought John Ralston, the 3-4 Orange Crush defense, the Miracle of ’77, and wild man Lyle Alzado. John Elway took the Broncos through the 80s and 90s, “The Drive,” five Super Bowls, two championships, and “the greatest walk off ever.” Fans are treated to the “ups, downs, and frowns” of Jay Cutler, the second coming of Peyton Manning, two more Super Bowls, one more championship, and the dominance of Von Miller. “Mile High Football” is alive and well in Denver, but it wasn’t always that way. In this newly revised edition of Tales from the Denver Broncos Sideline, Andrew Mason gives readers the stories of the low points that tested Broncos fans’ allegiance, the incredible highs that followed, and everything in between.
