Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The story of how the NFL, over a period of nearly two decades, denied and sought to cover up mounting evidence of the connection between football and brain damage “League of Denial may turn out to be the most influential sports-related book of our time.”—The Boston Globe “Professional football players do not sustain frequent repetitive blows to the brain on a regular basis.” So concluded the National Football League in a December 2005 scientific paper on concussions in America’s most popular sport. That judgment, implausible even to a casual fan, also contradicted the opinion of a growing cadre of neuroscientists who worked in vain to convince the NFL that it was facing a deadly new scourge: a chronic brain disease that was driving an alarming number of players—including some of the all-time greats—to madness. In League of Denial, award-winning ESPN investigative reporters Mark Fainaru-Wada and Steve Fainaru tell the story of a public health crisis that emerged from the playing fields of our twenty-first-century pastime. Everyone knows that football is violent and dangerous. But what the players who built the NFL into a $10 billion industry didn’t know—and what the league sought to shield from them—is that no amount of padding could protect the human brain from the force generated by modern football, that the very essence of the game could be exposing these players to brain damage. In a fast-paced narrative that moves between the NFL trenches, America’s research labs, and the boardrooms where the NFL went to war against science, League of Denial examines how the league used its power and resources to attack independent scientists and elevate its own flawed research—a campaign with echoes of Big Tobacco’s fight to deny the connection between smoking and lung cancer. It chronicles the tragic fates of players like Hall of Fame Pittsburgh Steelers center Mike Webster, who was so disturbed at the time of his death he fantasized about shooting NFL executives, and former San Diego Chargers great Junior Seau, whose diseased brain became the target of an unseemly scientific battle between researchers and the NFL. Based on exclusive interviews, previously undisclosed documents, and private emails, this is the story of what the NFL knew and when it knew it—questions at the heart of a crisis that threatens football, from the highest levels all the way down to Pop Warner.

Download or read book Tales from the Pittsburgh Steelers Sideline written by Dale Grdnic and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the oldest teams in the NFL, the Pittsburgh Steelers have carved one of the most exciting legacies in professional football. Founded as the Pittsburgh Pirates by Art Rooney in 1933 with winnings from a single day at the racetrack, the Steelers spent the next 40 years as the NFL’s “Lovable Losers.” All that changed in the early ’70s, as savvy draft choices and a smashmouth style of play transformed the Steelers into the most dominant team of the decade. In Tales from the Pittsburgh Steelers Sideline, veteran journalist Dale Grdnic captures the essence of the Steelers teams across the decades. Grdnic highlights many of the squad’s most memorable moments, including Franco Harris’s Immaculate Reception and their eight Super Bowl appearances. He covers the team’s greatest rivalries, including the epic battles with the Oakland Raiders and Dallas Cowboys. And he profiles the memorable players who’ve worn the Black and Gold over the decades, including Byron White, Johnny “Blood” McNally, Terry Bradshaw, Lynn Swann, Mean Joe Greene, Jack Lambert, Jerome Bettis, and “Big Ben” Roethlisberger. The latest addition to the Tales series, this is a must-have book for any member of Steelers Nation.

Download or read book Always a Home Game written by Josh Miller and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pittsburgh Steelers hold the #1 away-game attendance record in the NFL, with a diehard fan base from coast to coast. TV announcers sometimes jokingly ask if this is a home game for the black-and-gold because there are so many fans in the stands. Pittsburgh natives are spread out across the country. On game days, you'll find these avid fans at their local watering holes, in cities big and small, cheering on their "home team." For example, Harold's Corral, outside of Phoenix, actually sells season tickets for a seat at the bar or a table during Steelers games. There were 5000 people at Harold's for the 2010 Super Bowl between Pittsburgh and Green Bay. There are 766 dedicated Steelers bars across America. During the 2013 football season, former Steelers punter Josh Miller and "everyday" fan Shawn Allen will visit Steelers bars in the 32 NFL cities, documenting the unique personalities that define one of the largest and most passionate fan bases in the world - "Steelers Nation." Meanwhile, back in Pittsburgh, 65,000-plus fans at sold-out Heinz Field, will see live feeds of their visits on the scoreboard. Filled with photographs and interviews, Always a Home Game features game-day celebrations, a look at former players and their post-Steelers lives, and the shared journeys of fans from across Steelers Nation
