Ohio coaching legend Paul Brown said he wanted to create "the New York Yankees of pro football" when he assembled the Cleveland Browns from scratch in 1946. Despite his ambition, not even the future Hall of Fame coach could have foreseen ten league championship appearances and seven titles in the team's first ten years.

Now fans of one of the NFL’s most storied teams will recapture all the excitement and glory of Browns football in this newly revised edition of Tales from the Cleveland Browns Sideline.

From Jim Brown to Bernie Kosar and up through the modern era, this book captures the colorful characters who wore the plain white uniforms and blank orange helmets like never before.

The New York Jets are not a franchise that has basked in an abundance of pride and glory. Sure, they were led to the promised land by Joe Namath and Co. with the stunning Super Bowl III upset victory that capped the magical 1969 season. Since then, however, the Jets have careened through life alternating from bumbling to embarrassing to maddening to entertaining, and all along the way they've teased their ardent fan base in such a sadistic manner that it has become a way of life. In Tales from the Jets Sideline, Mark Cannizzaro takes you on a journey, through his eyes and the eyes of the subjects he's covered, across the maze of musings, controversial happenstances, and occasional brilliance the Jets have displayed during the years he has followed the franchise.
