SynopsisNow, in his eloquent words, hear mega-football superstar Marcus Allen - Heisman trophy winner, Superbowl MVP, and record-breaking running back - tell his inspiring and unforgettable story, rom his triumphant rise to athletic stardom, to his rocky 11-year relationship with Los Angeles Raiders coach Al Davis, to his controversial friendship with O.J. Simpson, and all the high and low points in between.Marcus on Al Davis:"I could neither understand nor determine why Al Davis had declared war against me. But for all the motives suggested, none involved the possibility that the issue might be racial. Al Davis was many things that I didn't admire, but he was no bigot."Marcus on O.J. Simpson:"I am and forever will be forever be tortured by the loss of two people who were my friends; one murdered, one now forced to live a lifetime being blamed for tragedy."Marcus on Football"It teaches hard lessons about success and failure, joy and disappointment. And when played well, it has a poetry all its own.", In a candid autobiography, sixteen-year NFL veteran Marcus Allen explores such topics as the Heisman Trophy, Al Davis and the Raiders, the business of professional football, what really goes on in a huddle, and O.J. Simpson.
