Year after year, Sunday afternoons and Monday nights during
the NFL season have belonged to men. While they cheer and
argue play calls, the women in their lives are relegated to
beer and chip detail. It's time for these women to join the
action, and Holly Robinson Peete, star of 21 Jump Street,
For Your Love, and Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, and wife of NFL
quarterback Rodney Peete, has written this hip, smart,
cheerful guide to help them do so. Peete shares her infectious enthusiasm for pro football and
takes the complexity out of the game by breaking it down to
its component parts. She explains the role of each position
player, provides a rundown of all on-field penalties and
referees' hand signals, and offers an illustrated guide to
some of the most common plays in the NFL. She gives her
take on the most memorable plays in NFL history and dishes
some inside dirt-in a breezy, girl-talkin' narrative that
promises to turn the novice spectator into a well-informed
football fanatic.
