Reid Bill; edited by Ronald A. Smith
Big-Time Football at Harvard 1905 : The Diary of Coach Bill Reid
Urbana and Chicago: University of Illinois Press 1994. As New condition in a Near Fine dust jacket. No chips. No tears. No creases. The jacket is bright and shiny and would be FINE but for a small crease to the inner flap. Clean square and tight. Sharp corners. Not a remainder. Pages are fresh crisp and unmarked. The editor Ronald A. Smith contributes an Introduction Afterword and Chronology. Illustrated with 10 old photographs. Complete list of Harvard's coaching personnel in 1905. Index. First printing with complete number row 54321 on the copyright page. Bound in the original red cloth lettered in black on the spine. From the Dust Jacket: "In 1905 twenty-six-year-old Bill Reid a former Harvard athlete was wooed back to the campus by the offer of a salary higher than that of any faculty member and approaching that of long-time president Charles W. Eliot. His mission: beat Yale. With the intent of providing a how-to manual for future coaches Reid set down day by day an account of his activities on and off the field. In so doing he provides clear evidence of what many have suspected for a long time: that the unethical conduct so common in modern-day football has roots in the early history of the game and has not been limited to the so-called football factories. Reid offhandedly discusses such topics as spying on other teams pressuring faculty members to give players passing grades requiring that players cut classes to attend practice and hiding injuries from players to keep them on the field. By coincidence Reid kept his diary during the single most inflammatory year in the history of college football. In the fall of 1905 President Roosevelt called a White House conference attended by Reid and the coaches at Yale and Princeton to discuss brutality and unethical conduct in college football. Harvard was among a number of institutions that considered dropping the sport in 1905 and a few actually did including Columbia California Northwestern and Stanford. After the death of a Union College player a national conference was held to discuss the future of college football which resulted in the formation of the National Collegiate Athletic Association.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. As New condition/Near Fine dust jacket. 8vo. xxxviii 354pp. University of Illinois Press Hardcover

Rice Simeon; Stewart Mark
Rush to Judgment: The Simeon Rice Story
<p>Signed on the ffep by Simeon Rice. VG condition hardcover in like dustjacket first edition full number line 8 pages of b&w photos 280 pp. <br /></p><p>All-Pro defensive end Simeon Rice learned the hard way that if you don't "play the game" in the National Football League you pay the price. As a record-setting rookie he bought the company line—that practice preparation and performance equaled success in the pros. It was only when he refused to accept losing as part of the equation that Simeon Rice found himself on the outside looking in.<br /><i>Rush to Judgment</i>examines the complex world of big-time sports through the eyes of a superstar who has seen it all and done it all on his way to the top of the NFL food chain. Simeon Rice's unique combination of physical prowess and creativity has redefined the way his position is played. His refusal to accept the status quo—both in life and in football—has endowed him with a rare perspective on what it means to be an elite athlete in a culture that worships winning and settles for nothing less.</p><br /> The Lyons Press hardcover
