Football fix

I don't know whether I'm the only one who had a tough time coming off my football high, but now that the season is over and done I've been looking for a way to scratch the itch. This led me to check out and read an excellent sports book "Bringing the Heat", by Mark Bowden. It's all about the Eagles (big surprise I know), the 1989-1992 teams that couldn't quite make it over the hump, but I think it's worth reading if you're a football fan. It describes the players, coaches, and team chemistry in an insightful and colorful way that I think would appeal to anybody. It's worth it for the casual reader just because of its profile of then Eagles DT Mike Golic, now star sportscaster. I'd highly recommend it.
