Signed with sentiment on fep (Best Wishes Bob Hayes). Autobiography of Bob Hayes, once billed as the "fastest man in the world." He set all kinds of records in college and won two Gold Medals at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. He later played pro football. After that experience, he became involved with drugs and alcohol and wound up in prison. Quite a story. Robert Lee Hayes (December 20, 1942 September 18, 2002), nicknamed "Bullet Bob", was an American sprinter and professional football player. After winning gold medals at the 1964 Summer Olympics, he played in the National Football League (NFL) for the Dallas Cowboys. Hayes is the only athlete to win both an Olympic gold medal and a Super Bowl ring. Hayes was selected for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2009. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: Hayes, often dubbed the world's fastest human, first distinguished himself as the winner of two gold medals in the Tokyo Olympics in 1964. (Indeed, the evidence suggests that he ran the anchor lap in the 400-meter relay in 8.6 seconds, an almost incredible time.) He went on to enjoy an exceptional career in football as a pass receiver with the Dallas Cowboys. But after Hayes retired he became peripherally involved in a drug deal, spent 10 months in prison and then endured further troubles with alcohol. In this autobiography, written with freelancer Pack, he is as forthcoming as when he was in the public eye: he recalls his poverty-ridden childhood, his academically unsuccessful college career, his two failed marriages. Hayes proves equally outspoken on racism in America and on professional football's tolerance for players' drug and alcohol abuse so long as the sport's image is not damaged. The unswerving candor makes this book more than just another athlete's story. First U.S. Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated].…
