Description

In the newly updated Game of My Life Philadelphia Eagles, several legendary Eagles players share their fondest memories as each one recalls the game that sticks out the most from his Eagles career. The games they choose may very well be the ones with which you most associate thema championship game, a playoff game, or a heralded comeback. But a fair number of choices may surprise you, as some Eagles cite encounters that time has buried deep within historys vault. No matter which game each player chooses as his most memorable, each one tells a story. Each fills in a bit more of the complex legacy that defines the Philadelphia Eagles. More importantly, and certainly more poignantly, each story humanizes the larger-than-life warriors who strapped on their winged helmet each Sunday and played for the glory of the city of Philadelphia.

Some of the former Eagles players profiled in this book are:

Chuck Bednarik
Brian Dawkins
Tommy McDonald
Bill Bergey
Seth Joyner
Keith Jackson
Mike Quick
Brian Baldinger
Claude Humphrey
Bill Bradley
Lito Sheppard
Vince Papale

The new edition includes insight on the 2018 Super Bowl run.
