Sandy Sullivan is a doll of an author, and in this book she certainly does not fail to disappoint! The book is an excellent history on some of the best and brightest years of Green Bay Packer's football. And she would certainly know it all since she was always right there on the sideline, in the locker rooms, and spending all sorts of time personally cheering on the team. If you are a Packer's fan then this book is certainly for you. You won't be able to put it down at night, and you will learn so much that you never even knew about the greatest era of football and the greatest football team in U.S. history...the Green Bay Packers! Yeah, go green and gold!!!!!!!

I read extensively, and seldom read a book that doesn't have something redeeming to offer, until now. The author, Sandy Sullivan, is a name-dropping nobody (oh wait, she was a Milwaukee "model") who offers up tales of times she spent with former Green Bay Packers. She spent a lot of time drinking and sleeping with any of the team members who would have her, and she seems to think that makes her important and that we are interested in her life. I could live with that, but the book is very poorly written also. She underlines words or phrases with complete abandon, and the punctuation is horrendous. How this book ever got past an editor is beyond me. My husband picked it up and tried to read it, but after two chapters he said he couldn't go on reading "the most awful book ever written". It's hard to believe this book was published in 2004, because it reads like something written 40-50 years before that. Truly awful!!!!!
