Product Description Recognizing that our society has a great need for role models, and few individuals successfully rise to the challenge, The Homefield Advantage assures readers that "Yes, you are a role model...whether you own up to it or not. You are being watched. You are touching lives. You are shaping young lives for good or for incalculable harm." Filled with the stories of everyday heroes who may never make the pages of Sports Illustrated-but who may very well find their way into heaven's highlight clips-The Homefield Advantage offers powerful advice for men who want to maximize their influence for generations to come.

Wow... July 30, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very inspirational. Easy read, great message. This book greatly affected my husband's relationship with our children. Great book for any dad, especially a sports (football) fan.

Home Field Advantage allows a father to remember what is really important and how he score where it really counts.
Does for football what Safe At Home did for baseball March 9, 1997 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In 1992, Dave Branon of Sports Spectrum joined with Joe Pellegrino to present Christian role models in baseball. Now Branon and Packer Ken Ruettgers give us a role model in football, a sport in desperate need of same. When the bad boys get all the ink, we all need to look beyond that to the behavior and character of players like Ruettgers. Branon - we're waiting for the good guys of basketball. The mainstream media don't even try to hide their rolling eyes and smug boredom when Christian players praise The Lord. Get over it, media, and ask yourselves why you're disturbed at a player who kneels in the end zone to thank his Lord rather than break into a dance of self-glorification.Bit by bit, book by book, the good guys are gaining.For more on the Branon touch, try a subscription to his magazine, Sports Spectrum. It's a whole new world out there, sports fans, a world where the Minister of Defense is in the pulpit
Next to the Bible, it's a hand's on playbook for role models December 12, 1996 It's information is insightful, Biblical, practical and Ken puts into the hands of his readers a do-able, day to day playbook for Dad's to win with their kids. Ken's insights, stories and truths empower and equip men to leave lasting Godly imprints in the daily lives of their children and all those whom they touch....he helps us Packer fans to realize that though it may be hard to fathom...there are indeed higher priorities in life than football and dare I say it...the Green Bay Packers
