Book Description
Fans raved about the no-nonsense honesty and hilarious humor of Terry Bradshaw's New York Times bestselling memoir, It's Only a Game. Now, in Keep It Simple, the four-time Super Bowl winner, Football Hall of Famer, two-time Emmy-winning Fox NFL Sunday co-host, and popular inspirational speaker shares his thoughts on how to tackle life's most complicated problems. You may not know it from Terry's many accomplishments -- his television commercials; his awards for sportsmanship, broadcasting, and public speaking; or his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame -- but behind the warm smile and easy, down-home demeanor is a man who has lived and learned not just through his triumphs but mostly through his struggles. Whether he's talking about recognizing and treating his attention deficit disorder, coping with his three failed marriages, accepting his fate as the benchwarmer everyone loved to hate during his early years with the Pittsburgh Steelers, or forgiving himself for spending $7,000 on those two ostrich eggs in a get-rich-quick scheme, in Keep It Simple Terry does it with the humor and honesty that has made him one of the most beloved personalities in sports history. In chapters covering topics such as financial matters, surviving love, the value of teamwork, and overcoming adversity, Terry makes no attempt to become the next self-help guru. He offers the simple lessons he's learned through his faith, his family, and his friends. "We are all searching for the same thing: a hand to hold and heart to understand," he says. "Keep it simple. Smile a lot. Be nice to other people....Life is a joy."

Great Service January 25, 2008 Book was exactly as info stated. Excellent condition. Impressed with fast service (especially noting it was the busy Christmas season). Have not read book yet, but glancing thru, I know I will be pleased.
FUNNY, FUNNY, FUNNY September 25, 2007 I checked this book out from the local library on a lark and thoroughly enjoyed it. I am not a huge football fan or a Terry Bradshaw fan, but I laughed a lot while reading this book. A friend of mine told me his doctor recommended it for stress relief (laughter as medicine) and I can understand why. If you like football even a little bit, or Terry Bradshaw just a little bit, you should enjoy reading this.
KEEP IT SIMPLE January 3, 2007 This was a great book about Terry Bradshaw's life. I really enjoyed reading it. It touched on his life as a Pittsburgh Steeler, his failed marriages & the great love for his kids. Good reading.
Keep it Simple August 22, 2006 In this book, Terry Bradshaw recyles some of his stories from his book/audio "It's only a Game." The book is simple and repetitive but still contains some of the Bradshaw humor. It incorporates what he says when giving his motivational speeches at business functions. I enjoyed it for light recreational reading, but probably would not have purchased it if it hadn't been discounted.
I Needed Something To Read July 2, 2006 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I worked over-night at an amusement park for security. For 6 hours a night, I would read. I bought about every book in the store that existed, so I had to settle for this one. I hate Terry Bradshaw.
Well, I used to hate him. :) This book opened up my eyes. It was the only book I ever really loved, in the 6 months I had that job. I've read it twice now, and I'm sure number 3 is on its way! Read this book!! You don't need to be a football fan, as there is very little about football in here. It's educational and motivational. Definately worth the money!
