First, on your new book. What possessed you to write NFL Brawler: A Player-Turned-Agent’s Forty Years In the National Football League – what were you trying to relay to readers that they didn’t know before?
I had some entertaining stories from my years of working in the NFL – using a pro wrestler in a negotiation, nearly fighting Jimmy Johnson, getting into a drinking contest with an NFL owner, etc. The book arose simply from a desire to collect all those stories and share them. I thought other people might enjoy my stories.
Most importantly though, I wanted it to be a book of thanks-to let people to know that I was grateful for all that I experienced. I was blessed with people who helped me from day one, from close family members to little league coaches, clients, and family members. I wasn’t one of those people looking to sling mud at the NFL or football in general. The game has greatly enriched my life.
