Summary: As honest as a Butkus blitz. Good read that keeps your inter
Review: A good book that gives you a chance to hear the facts straight form the best Middle linebacker to have played the game. Butkus takes you inside and tells it like it really was. His dealings with Papa bear,how he felt about the game from a child to a man and how things were done in the NFL in his time.Very interesting how the popular stories of Dick Butkus actually came to be.This book is as honest as a Butkus blitz.

Summary: The Best Book I have ever read
Review: Butkus Flesh and Blood is the best book I have ever read. It is a well written book about a great football player. His book has been very influentional to me. He played football like a maniac and seemed to be mentally unstable. After reading the book I will always remember one word: BUTKUS!.

Summary: greatest football player who ever lived
Review: Dick Butkus played a no frills, in your face style of football that entrenched him as the greatest linebacker to ever play the game. Much like his play, this book is a no-frills look into the psyche and environment that produced a dedicated and ferocious player. It was refreshing to read about a player and an era where athletes played more for the love of the game than for the dollar signs at the bottom of a contract. A must read for football fans everywhere, and especially Bears/Butkus fans.

Summary: Great Read about the greatest Football player ever..
Review: I loved it!But then again I am a huge Bears fan and a huge Butkus fan,good ol 51 played the game like nobody ever did and I enjoyed reading about how he grewup and about the Bears on and off the field and its mangement,I always thought Bears mangement has always been skummy and this book proved me right,I loved this book though as it was great to hear stories about the players and how they spent there time and about picciolo and sayers etc,
I met Butkus about 4months ago and he looks great and seams to be doing well.

Review: Never been a Bears fan, never will. But who amongst us growing up in the '60s and loving football, did not admire Dick Butkus? Whatta' player! I loved the cover of this book! What a menacing figure! Let's talk about the book. Overall, a good, insightful book but a couple of items disappointed me. First, the ramblings about his falling out with the Bears. After many pages, I felt like saying, 'Get over it!' but considering who I would be speaking to...well. Second, I was curious what his kids grew up to be like. Not much mention of his wife nowadays either. But, this is a book about Butkus and his life was football. Fun to read...

Summary: Somewhat slow, but interesting if you are a Bears fan.
Review: The book is a bit slow, but such can be overlooked if you're a Chicago Bear and/or Dick Butkus fan. I would have liked more detailed info on what Butkus is doing now, his involvement with the Bears and more pro football "war stories". I enjoyed reading his book. I'd rate it a "7" of 10.
