Run to Daylight! by Vince Lombardi
In the golden years of professional football, one team and one coach reigned supreme: the 1960s Green Bay Packers, and the fiery Vince Lombardi. Run to Daylight is Lombardi's own diary of a week at the helm of that magnificent club. Together with legendary sports-journalist, W.C. Heinz, Lombardi takes us from the first review of game films on Monday right through the final gun on Sunday afternoon. We see the planning, the plotting, the practice and the pain as forty-plus men come together to form that precision unit that makes for winning football. Lombardi gives us his views on life, the game, coaching, success, family, and the famed Lombardi Sweep. Now, in this anniversary edition, with a special foreword by David Maraniss, we are once again reminded of the passion and power behind America's greatest game. Written in W.C. Heinz's inimitable style, Run to Daylight is part diary, part philosophy text, part coaches manual. Here, is professional football at its best.Vince Lombardi Jr. is a prominent professional speaker and writer. He is an attorney who has worked for the Seattle Seahawks, the NFL Management Council, and the United States Football League, as well as serving in the Minnesota senate.
