 He called his own plays... February 7, 2002
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Growing up in Pittsburgh during Terry Bradshaw's pro career was a wonderful experience. Unfortunately, being a young fan at the time, I could not understand how the actions of fans can affect a player. The Steeler fans loved Bradshaw, yet expected a level of achievement that could never be obtained. It is wonderful that Terry has achieved so much in a variety of careers. This book allows Terry tell what he was thinking then and how he feels about it now. It's a very revealing and funny book.

David Fisher Deserves a Pulitzer for capturing Terry B! November 18, 2001

Man, I love this book. I grew up on Greg Gumbel and Terry Bradshaw's pregame show as a kid and have been a fan of Terry B's ever since. I love the way this guy talks football and the humorous style that he has developed over the years. No doubt, he's the type of guy who you'd like to call a friend. Living right off Harvard Square, it's refreshing to read a down-to-earth, homespun, hilarious book like this once in a while.
It's A Wonderful Life November 4, 2001

Don't let the title of this book mislead you. While Terry Bradshaw is best known as the four time Superbowl Champion quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers and a regular on the FOX Sunday football show, this is not just a book about football. It's about a life. Terry Bradshaw's resilency, humor, confidence and honesty are showcased in this book, and nothing in Bradshaw's life is too sacred for discussion. This book made me laugh out loud so many times that I had to read passages of the book to travel companions that were wondering what could be so funny. Bradshaw's account of his attempt at cattle ranching is hilarious. There is plenty of football in this book to satisfy any fan of the game as Bradshaw recounts his playing days from high school to his Superbowl victories with the Steelers. But there is so much more. Jimmy Stewart had to be saved by an angel to know it's a wonderful life. I'll let you decide for yourself if Bradshaw convinces you that it's only a game. If you read this book, come January you'll wish Terry Bradshaw was at your Superbowl party.
 Tries to be funny, but misses for me October 30, 2001

Bradshaw spoke at one of my wife's company's functions and she said he was a great speaker, so I was looking forward to this book. However, his style does not seem to transfer to the written page. He tries hard to be likable and funny, but I rarely laughed at his stuff and only managed a few smiles.
