A season to remember

Any Giant fan who wants to relive the magic should buy this book now. Some fun insights and touching stories show the foundation of one of the biggest Superbowl underdogs of all time. Enjoyed every page.

Great sports book

Rather than get the DVDs, I decided to get this book for my wife (we're both Giants fans, but she bleeds blue). She couldn't put it down. I started reading it as well and it's great to get Tom's perspective on the ins and outs of an NFL season. Things that you don't see when you're watching the game. I recommend this to all Giants fans who want to relive the magical Superbowl XLII run.

Great insight into a great team...

"A Team to Believe In" is written by Tom Coughlin and Brian Curtis and it chronicles the 2007 championship season for the New York Giants. The book begins with backstory on the incredibly difficult 2006 season and how Coughlin had to prove he was worth keeping in 2007. From there, the book describes the amazing journey the G-Men took in the 2007 season and the playoffs. Coughlin provides an inside look on what he needed to change, how his struggles in 2006 effected his family, and how he reconnected with his team. It's all very interesting and well-written. I found the opening chapter about 2006 quite interesting and it was fascinating to see how Coughlin dealt with the scrutiny and criticism. He describes how he became close with his players and also gives general insight to coaching in the NFL. All in all, this is a great read for Giants fans. It's a must-have for anyone who wants to commemorate Big Blue's Super Bowl run in 2007.
