[F]ootball fans will be most delighted by the heart of the [On the Clock], lists of 'the bold and beautiful, the fantastics and the flops, in NFL draft history,' including a look at the best and worst picks of each franchise, and separate best and worst lists for quarterbacks, running backs, linebackers, and safeties.

Crazyball is so entertaining and chock full of sports history, you’ll never want it to be over. From the Snake Canyon adventures of Evel Knievel to the wrenchingly funny movie Dodgeball, to George Brett’s rage in the 'Pine Tar Incident,' it’ll be tough calling timeout once you begin your journey.

Alternately nostalgic and pointed, Wilner and Rappoport have written a book that will be a walk down memory lane—and an education—for football fans, whether they are veterans or rookies.

Barry Wilner and Ken Rappoport have come up with a terrific formula for explaining how and why football has come to be the most popular sport in America. By focusing on the true difference makers—from George Halas to Pete Rozelle to Bear Bryant, even Teddy Roosevelt’s role in the game’s history and a mostly-forgotten kicker like Pete Gogolak’s impact—they have compiled a treasure trove of people, trends, and off-field events that provide a global view of the game. Well-researched, well-reported, and well-written by two of the most respected journalists in the business, Football’s Game Changers is an excellent resource to get a true picture of football’s spectacular growth over the decades.
