Thanks
Anybody read Bruschi's book?
I just completed Football Scouting Methods by Steve Belichick, and it is incredible.
May be bland to the ordinary fan, but for those of you that want an analytical and methodological approach to scouting and personnel decisions, this is a must read. Steve was a genius and his vast knowledge is very impressive.

That's a hard book to find - where'd you get it? I've done a few searches for it and haven't been able to get my hands on a copy yet.
Never Give Up reads a lot like Reign - same style and insight. Michael Holley contributed throughout Bru's book. It is a good story for Pats fans, but honestly there isn't much "new" information we haven't heard yet. Almost like he's retelling the stroke story in more elaboration.
I found Education of a Coach riveting, and you're correct about DH - brilliant. I also thought Patriot Reign was very good, but it isn't the same type of book. My fondness for Holley (not that I don't disagree with him from time-to-time) made Patriot Reign very enjoyable. Lots of inside stuff. Blueprint by Chris Price was very good, also.Education of a Coach is a must-read. Halberstam was one of the great writers of the century IMO.
Patriot Reign is not nearly as well written (almost nothing is) but it's a fun read.
