"The NFL, as we know it today, began with the 1958 Championship. There's nobody better to tell the story of that game and the guys who played it than Frank Gifford. This book, like those players, is All-Madden." - John Madden "As a Baltimore boy, I can never read enough about the wonderful Colts-Giants game of 1958. Hey, we won! But Frank Gifford and his Giants lost. What is so special about reading Gifford's account of the game is not only how magnanimous he is but also the sweet story of how the NFL captivated a nation. It took fifty years, but with THE GLORY GAME, Gifford is a winner, too." - Frank Deford "Frank Gifford's superb memoir shows what it really takes and means to be a champion.


Also, it's nice to read about the Giants losing a title game." - Bill Belichick "Readers needn't be Giants or Colts fans to appreciate Frank Gifford's 'The Glory Game'. a memoir of 'the men who brought beauty to brutality.'" - Detroit Free Press "Absolutely essential.[The Glory Game] is an elegant recalling of NFL football as it was played in the 1950s.If your pulse doesn't race when you read Gifford's description of the overtime immortal game, then you must be a soccer fan." - Hartford Courant "A fresh, engrossing, anecdote-filled retelling of a familiar but unforgettable gridiron battle." - Library Journal.
