Great book
Jesse "The Icon" Farrar is one of the greatest minds of the 21st century. I liked to read this book while I was going to the bathroom.

Funny as hell
Ol’ JF snapped on this one. He was nice with it. He took it to the rack and slammed it down like the 78 year old lady in his rec league when he tried to guard her.

On Old Football Coaches
Old football folks sure were stupid, and this book proves it using the very words of those stupid old folks.Excerpts from old texts from supposed football experts fill the pages, along with bite-sized jokes from the author making fun of each and every one. The book also includes old-timey football illustrations and some funny lists written by the author, including "The Eleven Jankiest Records of Pro Football Hall of Fame Coaches."You don't have to like football to find this book funny, but having some knowledge of the sports world (both of the past and present) will help you get some of the jokes. Each page stands alone as its own joke, and there are no chapters or larger narrative flow, making this a great book for short, often-interrupted reading sessions or to read on the toilet.

Wonderful book!
Incredible advice. I still cannot believe how much the coach taught me. I love him and I miss him so much. Much like my wife Nadine, who recently passed. She fell asleep on the toilet and woke up to the sound of a marching band. Two weeks later she said she had the best burger of her life... It was also her last burger😢. Love the book!

Excellent book. I have only read the first two pages but they were very good and I look forward to reading however many more pages there are. My cat chewed on the corner for a while but that doesn't seem to have impaired the functionality of the book in any way. I hope the money I paid for the book went directly to Jesse instead of to a series of middlemen.

Enjoyable
Book is a series of old writings on football, with the author’s commentary added. This format is interesting and funny, and it also makes the book very easy to open up and read a few passages whenever. Then I close it back up and go on with my life where I’m a handsome and strong boy

What a hilarious book! My cousins and I would "take a walk" after thanksgiving dinner and go read this book together. Nobody in the family knew why we were all so giggly when we came back.

Pretty good
Hilarious follow up to Farrar’s last book “Life In The Fast Lane: My Time In The Team McLaren F1 Pit”. Plenty of great anecdotes about coaching football in this book. Good job
