A rollicking memoir from the linebacker at the heart of the most famous Alabama football play of all time No university has won more football championships than Alabama, and Barry Krauss played a key role in one of them. The linebacker’s fourth down stop of Penn State’s Mike Guman in the Sugar Bowl on January 1, 1979, was recently named by ESPN as one of the ten most important plays of the 20th century. The Goal Line Stand, as the play became known, immortalized Krauss among legions of fans. More than twenty-five years later, people still tell him exactly what they were doing and how they felt when he collided in mid-air with Guman that New Year’s Day—and almost never mention his twelve-year career in the NFL. In this entertaining and well-illustrated memoir, Krauss tells of scrimmaging on front lawns with friends as a kid in Pompano Beach, Florida, and of his childhood dream to play for Don Shula. He acknowledges how Coach Bear Bryant tamed his free spirit and shaped him into the football player—and the man—he became. In addition, he emphasizes the importance of team, weaving together the personal stories of his Alabama teammates on the field during the Goal Line Stand, and acknowledges their significant roles in winning the game and the championship. Ain’t Nothin’ But a Winner offers an insider’s look at how a team is built, tested, and becomes a national champion—and how that process sometimes calls upon an individual to rise to the challenge presented by his own personal gut check.

It's time to call out the brave within you and unleash your masculine power! ​When many thousands of years of strictly gendered cultural expectations meet the pressures of the modern age, what does it mean to be a man? What does true, healthy masculinity look like for both you and the world around you, and how can you achieve it? In Forged in Bravery, author and leadership psychologist John Robert Hatfield reflects on his experience from thirty years of counseling men, current research, and his own lifelong relationship with his masculinity to navigate through the maze of modern masculine confusion. From exploring strategies for healthily managing anger to investigating the overlooked importance of cultivating male friendships, Hatfield analyzes the masks men wear that perpetuate a false facade of masculinity to confront the many harmful cultural narratives that have defined our expectations of what a man should be. Instead, this book will teach you how to unashamedly call out and awaken the brave within you, confront the fears that dominate you, and embrace the braveass virtues that forge true masculinity. Hatfield establishes a new standard for measuring when men are truly at their best that revolves on self-leadership, resilience, and vulnerability. Forged in Bravery is a call to action for men to confront their fears and examine their attitudes on masculinity so they can start living an authentic and empowered life.
