There are few things I enjoy more than watching a good football game (good meaning Green Bay is winning 😊) but reading about football is also very fun.
These types of books are always subjective. How do you narrow down over 100 years of history and terrific players to just 125? It's tough. While I agreed with many of his choices, there were a few things he left out that I thought should have been included. For instance, talking about amazing Hail Marys, he didn't even mention Aaron Rodgers or Brett Favre. Rodgers was literally known for winning games for GB on a last ditch, three seconds left on the clock Hail Mary. And in talking about terrible officiating, he neglected to mention the time that the referees robbed Green Bay of a win against Seattle by calling an touchdown instead of an interception (it was a huge travesty--it literally has its own Wikipedia page).
But all in all, it was fun to remember some of the great players and games from the past.
