Larry Csonka ran the football with audacity and authority. He lived his off-the-field life with equal abandon. As part of the NFL's 100th Anniversary, he and his undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins teammates were named the best team in NFL history. In Head On, Csonka shares how they achieved their legendary Perfect Season. From quitting football at a young age, to his often-combative relationship with Coach Don Shula, to brazen exploits with his NFL pals, Csonka narrates a life that is colorful, unbridled, and thrilling.

Shook Loose Many Memories
Revisado: 01-19-24
Larry Csonka has been my all-time favorite professional football player since I was a young lad born & raised in Miami, Florida. I have been a lifelong, diehard Dolphins fan and season ticket owner. To my great pleasure, this read provided so many rich stories regarding professional football players I’ve been familiar with since childhood. Csonka is a brilliant storyteller that filled gaps and left me with more color, detail and context to what I previously knew. His accounts are honest and sincere; you can feel his sense of empathy and respect of those who were and are part of his life. While often a story Csonka shared would tug at my heart, there were many others that left me laughing. I recently retired after a long career in education. This book gave me hope as I embark on my own new journey and inspired me to live my best life — just as Csonka has with his.

In 1975, coach Harlan Brown is hiding from his past at an obscure New York college, after he was fired from Penn State University on suspicion of being gay. A tough, lonely ex-Marine of 39, Harlan has never allowed himself to love another man. Then Billy Sive, a brilliant young runner, shows up on his doorstep. He and his two comrades were just thrown off a major team for admitting they are gay. Harlan agrees to coach the three boys under strict conditions that thwart Billy's growing attraction for his mature but compelling mentor.

Brave novel in its time!

A re-read . . . Well, I actually listened this 'go-round' . . . First read this novel as a teenager . . . It was a 'Godsend' at that time in my life.
