Sports Illustrated: The Football Book,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Sports Illustrated: The Football Book (Hardcover)
This book is a perfect gift for anyone at any age. Beautiful pictures highlight this book at insane angles you wouldn't believe. Pictures such as "The Catch", Marcus Allen's dive, and Dempsy's hooved foot. It also includes stats, explanations, and records throughout the history of the NFL, since the year of 1920. This is one of the coolest books I've ever gotten!

The only thing I asked for Christmas. It is well worth it to add to your collection. Just reading Dr. Z's all-time decade teams is enough to make you salivate. This book is loaded with awesome pictures, great facts from NFL history and the articles are simply priceless -- reruns of a lot of SI's best stories on the NFL's greatest players. You've just got to grab this awesome book. I'm only a third of the way through it and can't put it down!!!! Great job Sports Illustrated. You nailed it with this one!!!

Sports Illustrated: The Football Book,
This review is from: Sports Illustrated: The Football Book (Hardcover)
We purchased this book as a gift for a friend who coached high school football for over 30 years. He is also a major NFL fan. He was so touched by the gift and content that he had the paper cover laminated to preserve it. He poured through the book and still goes through it. He is quite proud of it, and we are so elated to have given a gift that the recipient truly loves. Not only is the content awesome with the pictures and information, it is a great coffee table decor for football lovers.
