Sinopse

INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER

A Kirkus Reviews Most Anticipated Book of the Fall

A moving celebration of the history of American football from the New York Times bestselling author of Why We Love Baseball

After his bestselling home run books Why We Love Baseball and The Baseball 100, Joe Posnanski turns from the national pastime to the number one sport in America. Why We Love Football is Posnanski’s newest must-have deep dive into the archives and legends of the sport, and the result is a rousing tale of the 100 greatest moments in football lore.

This is the best kind of sports writing. Entertaining, enlightening, heartbreaking, hilarious, and always fascinating, these stories of the sport offer a panoramic look across its history. From hidden gems and classic tales to famous moments told from previously unheard perspectives, this book is the football book for even its most ardent fans.

From Patrick Mahomes's magic to the Ice Bowl, from Doug Flutie's Hail Mary pass to a plethora of football "miracles," Why We Love Football is an unforgettable, conversational masterpiece you won’t ever want to end, and a can't-miss take on football from one of the greatest sportswriters of our time.

Resumo da Crítica

"An engaging and accessible trip down memory lane for anyone who possesses even a passing interest in the game. . . . Posnanski’s list undoubtedly provides football fans with an opportunity to do what we love best—relive the glory days while trash-talking each other’s teams. . . . Why We Love Football is rife with statistics and play-by-play action any die-hard enthusiast will relish.”Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“A thoroughly enjoyable look back at the players and plays that have come to define America’s most popular sport . . . . For football fans like this reviewer, the book is an absolute must-read. But it should be accessible to the football-averse, too, with its brilliant writing and research that unearths gems and perspectives that bring the game and its characters to life. Readers will find themselves laughing out loud at times.”–Associated Press

“Posnanski is a practiced sportswriter, but here, following his top-50 treatment of baseball, he’s an enthusiast with an uncommonly broad grasp of football history. . . . [Posnanski] . . . connects to the game at a fan’s level. . . . Gives us 100 reasons to look forward to football season.”—Kirkus
