Download or read book The Draftnik written by Drew Boylhart and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-08-16 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been reported that 40 million sports fans watch or listen to the NFL Draft for three days every year. For me personally, its a year round endeavor. Since 1979, my first year of involvement in the draft, it has grown and developed into its own type of cottage industry. The Draft (because of its addicting nature) has brought new revenue to the NFL. The driving force behind this new source of revenue has always been Draftniks like the late Joel Buschbaum, Mel Kiper and others like me. We are Draftniks and the unexpected affect the draft has had on us is an American story in itself. Its a story of a person creating something out of nothing and making it important (in this case) to the sports world. It's also a story about how interest in the draft was the driving force in my life, which helped me to indentify and deal with being Dyslectic.
Download or read book The Draft written by Pete Williams and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An explosive look at the NFL Draft from the inside out that exposes the multilayered feeding frenzy that swarms around America's top college players. The Draft follows a handful of NFL hopefuls through the ups and downs of the 2004 college football season and the predraft process, culminating with the 2005 draft. Among the prospects are Virginia defensive end Chris Canty, who overcomes a devastating early-season knee injury to reestablish himself as a top draft hopeful, only to suffer a detached retina in a nightclub skirmish; and Fred Gibson, a talented but rail-thin Georgia wide receiver who struggles to put on the weight needed to go over the middle in the NFL. It's a complex environment, with college coaches attempting to protect their "student-athletes" from exploitation (while fully aware that they can only remain competitive if they attract NFL-caliber players to their schools), along with sports agents and NFL scouts trying to stay a step ahead of their competition. These parties provide a multi-angled view of the world of emerging NFL talent. The reader follows the season through the eyes of a host of power players and scouts, from veteran agent Pat Dye Jr. to Jerry Maguire clone Jack Scharf, to the coaching divisions of Florida State University and the University of Virginia--headed by longtime Bill Parcells disciple Al Groh. Also central to the narrative are the Atlanta Falcons and former executives Rich McKay and Tim Ruskell, who use a character-based evaluation system to set their draft board. These parallel stories weave together, culminating in draft weekend, to create a gripping and fascinating look at a world few see from the inside.

Download or read book Analytics of the NFL Combine written by W. Casan Scott and published by . This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each off-season, the National Football League (NFL) holds an event now known as the NFL Scouting Combine, which showcases the best 300 NFL prospects in the country. The NFL Combine includes medical tests, interviews, and a multitude of athletic tests, drills, and evaluations. The Combine participants include mostly college juniors and seniors who are selected based on how their college careers translate to the NFL. And while on-field game evaluations are probably the most important component of a prospect's NFL Draft evaluation, the NFL Combine offers a venue for standardized tests of athleticism under controlled conditions which allow for unbiased and consistent comparisons of athleticism between prospects. This book will describe the NFL Combine and the athletic tests conducted there. I will discuss some of the most memorable NFL Combine performances of all time, and offer some physiological theory behind NFL Combine drills. I will also begin introducing some statistical terminology, that will get progressively more advanced. If some of the terminology doesn't make sense, or seems difficult to understand, don't get discouraged. This book does is not meant to be a standalone textbook, and I do not aim to convince you of any of the conclusions I present. I only hope that this book helps you look at football a little bit differently.

Download or read book America s Game written by Michael MacCambridge and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2008-11-26 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s difficult to imagine today—when the Super Bowl has virtually become a national holiday and the National Football League is the country’s dominant sports entity—but pro football was once a ramshackle afterthought on the margins of the American sports landscape. In the span of a single generation in postwar America, the game charted an extraordinary rise in popularity, becoming a smartly managed, keenly marketed sports entertainment colossus whose action is ideally suited to television and whose sensibilities perfectly fit the modern age. America’s Game traces pro football’s grand transformation, from the World War II years, when the NFL was fighting for its very existence, to the turbulent 1980s and 1990s, when labor disputes and off-field scandals shook the game to its core, and up to the sport’s present-day preeminence. A thoroughly entertaining account of the entire universe of professional football, from locker room to boardroom, from playing field to press box, this is an essential book for any fan of America’s favorite sport.
Download or read book The Down Goes Brown History of the NHL written by Sean McIndoe and published by Random House Canada. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sean McIndoe of Down Goes Brown, one of hockey's favourite and funniest writers, takes aim at the game's most memorable moments--especially if they're memorable for the wrong reasons--in this warts-and-all history of the NHL. The NHL is, indisputably, weird. One moment, you're in awe of the speed, skill and intensity that define the sport, shaking your head as a player makes an impossible play, or shatters a longstanding record, or sobs into his first Stanley Cup. The next, everyone's wearing earmuffs, Mr. Rogers has shown up, and guys in yellow raincoats are officiating playoff games while everyone tries to figure out where the league president went. That's just life in the NHL, a league that often can't seem to get out of its own way. No matter how long you've been a hockey fan, you know that sinking feeling that maybe, just maybe, some of the people in charge here don't actually know what they're doing. And at some point, you've probably wondered: Has it always been this way? The short answer is yes. As for the longer answer, well, that's this book. In this fun, irreverent and fact-filled history, Sean McIndoe relates the flip side to the National Hockey League's storied past. His obsessively detailed memory combines with his keen sense for the absurdities that make you shake your head at the league and yet fanatically love the game, allowing you to laugh even when your team is the butt of the joke (and as a life-long Leafs fan, McIndoe takes the brunt of some of his own best zingers). The "Down Goes Brown" History of the NHL is the weird and wonderful league's story told as only Sean McIndoe can.

" —Aaron Schatz, lead author and editor of Pro Football Prospectus Pro football’s statistical iconoclast, K.C. Joyner, challenges conventional wisdom with fact-based and film-based responses in Blindsided: Why the Left Tackle is Overrated and Other Contrarian Football Thoughts.
