Steve young career was great, first it talks about how he has loved football since the first time he joined, which was pee wee football. He talks about how he had been to a couple of NFL games. Then it talks about his stats, about his passes, touchdowns, win and losses, and more.

Steve Young changed the whole story by saying what he loved to do. He told about how he had to choose between colleges, and that he had a hard time choosing. Unlike others, he had to choose to go the school that his ancestor was named after. He also had to choose between certain leagues in football.
Brigham Young made the difference of Steve choosing the right school to go to. If Brigham wasn't his family, it wouldn't have been that hard to choose.

The theme of this book was that, he had to choose between many things such as certain leagues and also a certain school. He showed what he had loved and what he loved to do as he grew up. The book showed that he was tough through out his life making decision.

In my opinion, I thought that this book was good. It showed that even if you're rich, you still have problems. And that you still have to make hard choices being an athlete especially. I also liked this book because it showed that he followed his dreams in football, and actually became a professional.

"He's someone who cares a lot about the community and is enthusiastic about it," Steinberg said. "He's a true role model, a true gentleman."

Refreshing biography of a hard-working football player with a sense of honor.
