Running Pro Football

Pro football in America is a $10 billion business, with more people employed to run the game and its business than actually play the game on the field. From the commissioner down to the locker-room staff, everyone in the NFL is trying to make it succeed. In this book, a longtime football writer takes an inside look at the people who make the game go off the field, from the New York City headquarters to a teams front office to the companies that rely on the leagues popularity. On or off the field, football is a team sport . . . and that team has all-stars. Professional football is clearly the most popular and successful sports league in American history. Rather than focus on the star players or big games, this series takes a broader, deeper look at the sport off the field. The insider experience of the authors reveals the secrets that make the NFL No. 1. Just because you know who won the Super Bowl doesnt mean you know ALL ABOUT PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL.
