AN OK READ

BUBBA SMITH WAS A GREAT DEFENSIVE END FOR THE BALTIMORE COLTS AND THIS BOOK IS ABOUT HIS LIFE AND THE ABRUPT END TO HIS CAREER. I REMEMBER BUBBA AS A MAJOR FORCE IN COLLEGE, PLAYING FOR MICHIGAN STATE AND THEN GOING ON TO THE COLTS WHERE HE GOT EVEN BETTER. I AM A BROWNS FAN BUT I STILL REMEMBER BUBBA BEING ONE OF THE MAJOR REASONS WHY THE COLTS BEAT THE BROWNS IN THE 1968 NFL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME 34-0. BUBBA HAD HIS GREAT CAREER PREMATURLEY END BECAUSE OF AN OUT OF BOUNDS PLAY THAT RESULTED IN BUBBA RUNNING INTO THE YARD MARKER AND INJURING HIS KNEE SEVERLEY. HE CAME BACK BUT HIS MOBILITY WAS VERY MUCH HAMPERED AND BUBBA'S CAREER WENT SOUTH. A GOOD DEAL OF THE BOOK IS ABOUT THE COURT CASE IN WHICH BUBBA SUED THE NFL FOR NEGLIGENCE BUT THE ALL POWERFUL NFL PREVAILED. BUBBA ALSO WAS IN SOME GREAT LITE BEER COMMERCIALS AND ON THE ACTION SERIES BLUE THUNDER CONCERNING MILITARY HELICOPTERS. I ALWAYS FOUND BUBBA A UNIQUE PERSONALITY AND HIS BOOK PROVES IT. I LIKE THIS BOOK AND RECOMMEND IT FOR ALL COLTS AND FOOTBALL FANS.
