I don't usually read that much but this summer I was without cable so I found myself reading for purely entertainment purposes. Scary right? Anyways one of the books that I came across was Quiet Strength by Tony Dungy of the Colts.
Quiet Strength tells the story of Tony and his life as a head coach, a player, and a family man. It is very interesting read that any one following the NFL or sports should pick up. It is also describes Tony's faith and how much of an impact his faith has had on his career and personal life.
Told by Tony himself the writing may not be exactly top-notch which makes it an easy read for almost anybody. I really enjoyed getting an inside look on his life and career.
One of the most memorable part of the book is Tony describing the pain that he and his family went through when their son committed suicide. How the city of Tampa, former players and teammates, church members, etc surrounded the Dungy family during their time of mourn. This is such a good read, I highly suggest it.
