New York Times bestselling author and former NFL defensive end Tim Green encourages listeners to fight for their dreams in this heartfelt story about a young football star grappling with the stress of living up to his father’s name. Perfect for fans of Mike Lupica!

Danny Owens is dedicating his seventh-grade season to his Super Bowl champion father, who recently passed away. Danny promises everyone that, just like his dad, he’ll dominate the big game at the end of the season and earn a spot on the high school varsity team.

Then his English teacher catches him cheating on a test. Even though Danny can retake it, he knows there’s no point. He can’t read. And if Danny can’t pass this class, he won’t be eligible to play in the championship game that could unlock his future.

While his resentment rises against the only person willing to help him win off the field, the pressure to succeed begins to weigh heavily on Danny’s shoulders. Danny is being tested on every level now, and to pass, he may very well have to choose a different path from his father’s.

I too was an athlete growing up and had a very strong father who was also my coach. In so many ways, I see these things happen all the time. Too much emphasis on star players getting by so they can win the big games when it’s all over., it’s not true life. The teacher was a strong positive influence. I also lost my father and Phil his presence when needed. This was an outstanding book and I will recommend it to everyone even if they’re not athletes at all it is a story of life and the importance of an entire balance.

So true to life in so many ways
