Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
aBefore John Elway, the Denver Broncos' 'Franchise' was a tightly wound, 5-foot-10 bowlegged superstar named Floyd Little. Despite his lack of size, Floyd zigzagged his way to a legendary career-first at Syracuse wearing the famed No. 44 jersey shared by Jim Brown and Ernie Davis, then with the Broncos, piling up Hall of Fame-worthy numbers to finish his career as the NFL's seventh all-time rusher. Through it all, Floyd showed naysayers the only true measure of a man is the size of his pounding heart. His incredible impact during the late '60s and early-to-mid-'70s saved the franchise from relocation and helped the Broncos become the marquee organization it is today.Buckle your chinstrap, double-tie your shoes, and down a 'half-glass of fresh blood' as Floyd Little takes you on a wild ride through his racially charged All-America days in the '60s to his Pro Bowl career with the struggling, resilient Broncos.

This is an easy read filled with great stories. Some are somewhat sad but most are humerous and all are passion filled. I highly recommend the book.

Bought this for myself and my Grandfather, who was a season ticket holder from '63 to '89, and we both loved it. If you love the Broncos, this is an excellent buy.

First, the good: this book is GREAT, it was a Christmas gift for my dad who has been a Broncos fan since Day One - 1960 (the very first year the team played in the AFL.) He loves it, and loves remembering all of the old Broncos stories
Now the bad: I ordered the autographed, leather-bound, $50 version of this book in AUGUST of 2006!! It was originally scheduled to be delivered in November.....then that was pushed back to Janurary, which of course misses the whole point, which was to have it by Christmas, but whatever. Then, in Janurary I get an email saying it has been delayed AGAIN and won't arrive until March. Well, forget it. Cancel that order. Order a "regular" version. Two weeks later - STILL no book. I call Amazon. Order the book for the THIRD TIME, and they send it 2-day shipping.....the second book never arrived. Nice process, Amazon and whoever was responsible for the autographed, limited edition book!!!

I became a Bronco fan because of Floyd Little. This is a plain-spoken simple book that is full of heart. Contemporary professional sports lacks the compassion and love of the game that Little and his peers had for not only the game, but also their town and their team. As a result I have totally lost interest. If professional sports returned to the values of Floyd Little I would probably become a born-again fan. But it sure is fun to read about those old days and get a glimpse into the life of the finest athlete ever to wear the orange.
