Book excerpt: Jeff Walker's The Last Chalkline is the biography of Jack Chevigny, Notre Dame football star who figured prominently in the "one for the Gipper" legend in Yankee Stadium and in the Notre Dame-Navy game of 1928-a game that still holds the unofficial record for attendance at Soldier Field. Later, as a coach, he led the Chicago Cardinals of the NFL and was caught in the storm of the NFL's darkest years, the movement toward the expulsion of its African American stars. At the age of twenty-eight, Chevigny led the Texas Longhorns to the precipice of a national championship, only to have his coaching career shattered by two consecutive losing seasons in Austin. As a Marine officer, he accepted the challenge of establishing Camp Lejeune as a premier football program. Under his guidance, Camp Lejeune's football program became the jewel of the Marines, but Chevigny, a close friend of Marine Commandant General Vandegrift, requested combat duty in 1944. Weighing the tragic cost of a man's last full measure, The Last Chalkline is a true account of the man who inspired America's Greatest Generation.

Download or read book Legends Never Die written by Richard Ian Kimball and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With every touchdown, home run, and three-pointer, star athletes represent an American dream that only an elite group blessed with natural talent can achieve. However, Kimball concentrates on what happens once these modern warriors meet their untimely demise. As athletes die, legends rise in their place. The premature deaths of celebrated players not only capture and immortalize their physical superiority, but also jolt their fans with an unanticipated intensity. These athletes escape the inevitability of aging and decline of skill, with only the prime of their youth left to be remembered. But early mortality alone does not transform athletes into immortals. The living ultimately gain the power to construct the legacies of their fallen heroes. In Legends Never Die, Kimball explores the public myths and representations that surround a wide range of athletes, from Lou Gehrig and Joe DiMaggio to Dale Earnhardt and Bonnie McCarroll. Kimball delves deeper than just the cultural significance of sports and its players; he examines how each athlete’s narrative is shaped by gender relations, religion, and politics in contemporary America. In looking at how Americans react to the tragic deaths of sports heroes, Kimball illuminates the important role sports play in US society and helps to explain why star athletes possess such cultural power.

Download or read book My Journey Walking the Chalk Line of Life by Faith written by Odell K. Miller and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-01-17 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written in tribute to two great women. My first wife, Alice, passed away because of lupus. My second wife, Velma, passed away because of dementia. If I could have taken the place of either one of my wives, I would have. Both my wives were similar at birth. They were both twins. Each had a twin who was a boy. This was something unheard of: that I could marry two different women with the same birth traits. Both were devout Christian women. Their faith in God was their key to their endurance. I know it was in God's plan that he had given me this ministry to be the caregiver for these two ladies of the gospel of Jesus Christ. My chalk line of life by faith also was my key to my endurance. I am going to be obedient to God's word, for my marriage vows are "For better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish till death do us part." What a glorious day when we all meet in heaven. What a family reunion that will be. Come on and follow me on my journey on the chalk line of life by faith, looking for the answer for the twins. This story is about my love for two ladies who exemplified Proverbs 31:10. They were truly two virtuous women.
