Book Reviews of They're Playing My Game

Book Review: A Fabulous Look at a Truly All-Pro NFL Coach
Summary: 5 Stars

This autobiography is done in a lucid way, just as though Hank Stram is talking with you. He reveals both the onfield and offield highlights of his career and how he looked at the game. Often misunderstood, especially by Lamar Hunt himself, Stram is the coach who brought quality, winning, and professionalism to the Chiefs. A Chiefs fan since 1966, I was not aware of the innovations he brought to football; even though I was well aware of the respect his players held for him, from conversations with Willie Lanier and others. It was almost a tragedy that he was admitted into the Hall of Fame only near the end of his life, but he was well deserving of that honor and though outspoken, a most compassionate coach with a winning attitude.

Summary of They're Playing My Game

Hall of Fame football coach Hank Stram was a winner in the AFL, the NFL, and in the broadcast booth. He wrote his autobiography in the same no-nonsense way he coached his football teams and delivered his color commentary. They're Playing My Game is an honest, insightful, and entertaining look at life in professional football from a man who spent much of his life finding ways to win on the sideline and behind a microphone.
