Like a rose indeed!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I loved this book. Not only does Rick Telander reprint his journal from his training camp with the Kansas City Chiefs, he also includes his current perspective on it. This is a very introspective and personal book, yet it also serves as just a great read. On the reflective side, Telander intersperses his current life with the life that the journal contained. Telander balances his love of sports with the love of his family, particularly his athletic son. On the simpler level, it is a great look at life for a rookie in a pro football training camp thirty years ago. Telander's experiences with some great football players and just some good names from the past really brought back some great memories for me of a simpler time in sports and life. Either way, this book works on all levels.
