Rough and Tumble
by Mark Bavaro
This best-seller is a "must read" for any sports fan. The main character is an aging pro football player. In one week, his girlfiend rebuffs him, the team's star defensive player is severely beaten and left in the parking lot dashing his hopes to play in the Superbowl, and he discovers that he has a career-ending injury. Confronted with the reality of life without football, he must also deal with conflict between players, drugs, gambling, and the parasites that hang around the team. The author was former New York Giants tight end consequently writes a very realistic tale. Easy.
