An inspiring portrait of the extraordinary high-school football team whose quest for perfection sustains its hometown in the heartland The football team in Smith Center, Kansas, has won sixty-seven games in a row, the nation's longest high-school winning streak. They have done so by embracing a philosophy of life taught by their legendary coach, Roger Barta: "Respect each other, then learn to love each other and together we are champions." But as they embarked on a quest for a fifth consecutive title in the fall of 2008, they faced a potentially destabilizing transition: the greatest senior class in school history had graduated, and Barta was contemplating retirement after three decades on the sidelines. In Smith Center--population: 1,931--this changing of the guard was seismic. Hours removed from the nearest city, the town revolves around "our boys" in a way that goes to the heart of what America's heartland is today. Joe Drape, a Kansas City native and an award-winning sportswriter for The New York Times, moved his family to Smith Center to discover what makes the team and the town an inspiration even to those who live hundreds of miles away. His stories of the coaches, players, and parents reveal a community fighting to hold on to a way of life that is rich in value, even as its economic fortunes decline. Drape's moving portrait of Coach Barta and the impressive young men of Smith Center is sure to take its place among the more memorable American sports stories of recent years.

In the golden years of professional football, one team and one coach reigned supreme: the 1960s Green Bay Packers, and the fiery Vince Lombardi. Run to Daylight! is Lombardi’s own diary of a week at the helm of that magnificent club. Together with legendary sports-journalist, W.C. Heinz, Lombardi takes us from the first review of game films on Monday right through the final gun on Sunday afternoon. We see the planning, the plotting, the practice and the pain as forty-plus men come together to form that precision unit that makes for winning football. Lombardi gives us his views on life, the game, coaching, success, family, and the famed “Lombardi Sweep.” Now, in this anniversary edition, with a special foreword by David Maraniss, we are once again reminded of the passion and power behind America's greatest game. Written in W.C. Heinz’s inimitable style, Run to Daylight! is part diary, part philosophy text, part coaches manual. Here, is professional football at its best.

After accumulating two decades worth of working knowledge in some of football's most accomplished passing systems, Coach Gonzalez delivers an apparatus that concentrates that knowledge. Teaching and coaching pass offense has never been made more simple, direct, or multiple, as Gonzalez has created a language that can be installed at any level, and streamlines even the most advanced pass concepts. A former Division 1 player and collegiate offensive coordinator, Dan Gonzalez once again blends his working knowledge of the West Coast, Run and Shoot, and Spread No-Huddle offenses, and distills the teaching of virtually any passing game into just three "Advantage Principles" and three "Read Concepts." Furthermore, the simplicity of the system is such that it can be taught to players of any age, giving an excellent springboard to beginning players or coaches. Moreover, the principal secrets of some of most prolific passing games in history are unlocked for advanced coaches. With over 200 *FULL COLOR* diagrams and a guide to installation, this is must read for coaches, players, and even fans who want to further their understanding of the passing game.
