Inhaltsangabe

Tedy gives you something to believe in. Whether we're winning or losing, he holds his head high, and he knows himself and handles himself so well, others can't help but follow him. The way he practices and plays forces you to become a better teammate; the way he demands hustle and toughness forces you to become a better leader; and the way he carries himself inspires you to become a better person. This made his return to playing on October 30 against Buffalo all the more electrifying. The stadium was louder that night than the nights we had raised our Super Bowl banners. Our captain, our leader, our inspiration was back on the field doing what he loved to do. Tedy had spent months rehabbing, had countless doctor visits, and had undergone hundreds of tests trying to play again. Just eight months after our victory in Super Bowl XXXIX, here we were celebrating a much bigger victory on our home field. Sure it was great to win the game, but that night we were celebrating Tedy's return as he showed us teammates, fans, family, and friends what it takes to become victorious in life.

You might be coming to this book as a fan of Tedy's football skills and, don't get me wrong, gaining the insights of one of the best defenders in Patriots history is worth the price of admission, but that's just part of the story. There are a lot of reasons to look up to him, and I promise you will finish this book with an admiration for him on a much deeper level.""
--Tom Brady (from the Foreword)

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The triumphant bestseller?now in paperback!

"Never Give Up . . . is Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi's account of the stroke he suffered in '05. Bruschi's recreation of his illness is compelling, as is his rationalization of why he came back and his response to those who said he shouldn't."
?Sports Illustrated

"[Bruschi's] goal was to tell his story and raise awareness about the warning signs of strokes. Much like his comeback, Bruschi succeeds on both counts."
?The Boston Globe

"There are all sorts of subplots within the larger New England Patriots success story, none more worthy of exploring for inspirational reasons than the one involving Bruschi."
?Toronto Star

"His story is a compelling and convincing one that will appeal to both football fans and those affected by strokes."
?Publishers Weekly
