Publisher Description: The victory and legend of the Super Bowl XLV winning Green Bay Packers continues in Chuck Carlson's Tales from the Green Bay Packers Sideline. In this behind-the-scenes look at the NFL's second oldest franchise, Carlson captures the determination, aggression, and vision that have constantly spurred the Packers to greatness. Through interviews and extensive research, Carlson brings to life stories from Packers legends such as Curly Lambeau, Vince Lombardi, Bart Starr, Ray Nitschke, Brett Favre, and the stars of today's Packers like Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews, Jr. Tales from the Green Bay Packers Sideline opens a window into the greatest Packers moments both on and off the field. Why was Vince Lombardi against the idea of rededicating the Packers stadium and naming it Lambeau Field? How was Monday Night Football changed forever during a Packers game on October 17, 1983? How did Aaron Rodgers deal with the pressure of the Super Bowl? Updated to include coverage of Super Bowl XLV on February 6, 2011. Readers will relive the greatest moments and quirkiest anecdotes from throughout Packers history. This collection is a must-have for any Green Bay fan. |
