    Take Yourself from Miserable, Mediocre Golfer to Consistent Par-Breaker  
     
    Imagine this. You've been working on your golf game for the past few months now, and you think you're starting to see results. 
     
    You read all the books, forums, and watched all the videos in preparation for this moment. 
     
    You take the shot. You swing. And miss. Again. 
     
    Aren't you sick of that feeling?  
     
    I know it way too well. It took me years to go from a totally inconsistent golfer to one that could regularly break par.  
     
    I browsed golf forums, social media groups, and even read dozens of books on the subject. I loved everything about the game, but for the life of me, I just could not win. 
     
    But over time, I started to gain a little traction. I would adjust my grip a bit, and my score improved. 
    I would change up my swing a bit, and my score improved a tad bit more. I did this with every aspect of my game. 
     
    This trial and error process eventually paid off, but it took years.  
     
    Fortunately for you, I consolidated all of that information into this single game-changing guidebook for beginners like yourself. In this book, I show you exactly what you need to focus on to see results in mere weeks, rather than spending years and years like I did. 
     
    There is no "golf theory" here...just tried and tested tactics from an experienced golfer.  
     
    All you need to do is focus on the tactics in this book exactly as I teach you, and you will see drastic improvements and consistent wins in your golf game in no time.

    The United States Football League was the last football league to not merely challenge the mighty NFL but also to cause it to collectively shudder. It spanned three seasons, featured as many as eighteen teams, secured multiple television deals, drew millions of fans, and launched the careers of legends—but then it died beneath the weight of a particularly egotistical and bombastic owner, a New York businessman named Donald Trump. In Football for a Buck, Jeff Pearlman draws on more than four hundred interviews to unearth all the salty, untold stories of one of the craziest sports entities to have ever captivated America. From 1980s drug excess to some of the most enthralling and revolutionary football ever seen, Pearlman transports listeners back in time to this crazy, boozy, audacious era of the game. He shows how fortunes were made and lost and how, thirty years ago, Trump was a scoundrel and a spoiler. This is sports as high entertainment—and a cautionary tale of the dangers of ego and excess.

    “Delves into the highs and lows of . . . a talented, young Black football athlete and first-generation college student, navigating identity and race.” —Dennis Kennedy, founder and chairman of National Diversity Council 
     
    Race Against . . . Against Race is the story of one young man’s dream of playing college football and the social development that unfolded as he tried to fit in on a predominantly white campus. He slowly integrates into his new environment by staying positive, being himself and focusing on shared experiences with his teammates and classmates. 
     
    Within this book, Bo-Dean paints a picture of a student athletes’ campus life in the ’80s and aims to examine the issues of race through his participation in college sports. Throughout his time as a student athlete, he discovers that he and his teammates learn from each other on and off the field by having the race conversation to develop and grow their relationships based on the foundation of sports, mutual respect, and acceptance. 
     
    “Sanders tells a riveting story of pushing himself to reach the goal that he thought mattered most—becoming a collegiate and professional football player. It is a gripping tale of growing up under the weightiness of segregation and poverty in the South and leaving home to go north to start life on his terms.” —Allener M. Baker-Rogers, EdD, coauthor of They Carried Us 
     
    “He provides a unique perspective on building relationships with teammates and classmates from different socio-economic backgrounds and races by reaching out, talking, and listening. In his first-ever book, Sanders explores how diversity and inclusion in sports and multiculturalism impacted his personal relationships in college.” —Delco Times
