The Importance of a Left Tackle, and the rise of Michael Oher

Date of Review:  Oct 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you are interested in football, this is a great read (especially if you like an deeper look at players as they move from childhood to college).
Review: The author of Moneyball, Michael Lewis, returns with another sports book, this time focused on football (the USA version of the word). Lewis tracks the changing nature of the NFL, and the changing importance of certain positions. As time advanced...

Date of Review:  Jul 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: I have recommended this book to fellow sports fans. Each of them enjoyed the sports story, but thought that the story of Oher and the Touhy family was unforgettable.
Review: If you liked Michael Lewis' best-selling "Moneyball," you will love "The Blind Side." In the wildly popular "Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game," Lewis examined how the Oakland Athletics used new techniques to field winning baseball teams...
