About the book

"What is it really like living in the shadow of the NFL? Contending with marital issues in a media spotlight? Raising kids whose father is idolized for his bone-crushing work on national TV? Trying to pursue friendships and career while constantly on the move? Reporting from the home field, Shannon O'Toole interviewed dozens of wives and girlfriends of NFL players and coaches who offer an intimate perspective on the culture of the NFL." "Bringing to bear a background in sociology and a firsthand understanding of being married to the NFL, O'Toole is uniquely qualified to report from behind pro football's doors. Part insider tell-all, part sociological study, her book is packed with candid, on-the-spot accounts of NFL life, providing a rare glimpse into the often hidden world behind the game."--Jacket.
