Through the eyes of this All-Pro, football fans will relive the Ice Bowl, the Hail Mary pass, five Super Bowls and other moments of the '70s when football was football and team rivalry was unmatched.THE LOCKER ROOMRayfield shared friendships and the field with some amazing legends - Coach Tom Landry, Roger Staubach, Tony Dorsett, Drew Pearson, Randy White, Bob Lilly, "Too Tall" Jones. The list of greats encompasses the longest yard. And then some.ROGER STAUBACH: "Rayfield protected me in the same manner in which the Secret Service protects our nation's President...with vigilance. Readers will admire his come-from-behind story."TONY DORSETT: "His (Rayfield's) deeply instilled passion for life and his pursuit for excellence will inspire all who read this book."SPECIAL NOTE: On August 5, 2006, Rayfield Wright will be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, OH.
