Review:Ted Williams has written the best book on hitting. He stresses the importance of hitting according to your style. The key is getting a good pitch to hit and not making it easier for the pitcher to get you out. Read more

Review:Coach Leach tells it like he sees it. Starting from funny stories of his childhood, up through law school, to starting to coach football. Highly entertaining book, I finished it on about 4 days, and I'm usually not a person who reads much. Read more

Review:Michael Oher's story is certainly interesting, but there's just not enough content for an entire book of this size.

I LOVED the chapters on the evolution of the rush defensive end, the West Coast offense, free agency, and everything else that made the LT position so valuable. The early Michael Oher chapters were fascinating. Once he was making it in school and crushing people on the football field, it became a little tedious. Read more

Review:As the author requests at the beginning of the book, this book will only help those that approach its message and tips with an open mind. Naturally skeptical, it took a few chapters before I was able to stop silently criticizing the flowery "zen" language and new-age metaphors and actually hear the message being delivered.

Review:I could not decide between this book and the similarly-titled one by Claire Kowalski so I actually went to the bookstore and spent some time flipping through them both. They both seem very good and well-informed, but the Kowalski book is definitely geared more toward beginners (in tone, mostly, but also in content). I am looking to move from beginner to intermediate level running and found that this book fit my needs much better. This one I think is also good for beginners, but the Kowalski b... Read more

Review:This book is an interesting read, but it seems the author couldn't decide which story to tell. His own? Joe Ehrmann's? The Gilman football team's? He goes deepest into Joe's but keeps hinting at his own transformation. That led me to expect more than I found in the last chapter. Read more
