Never Shut Up

The Life, Opinions, and Unexpected Adventures of an NFL Outlier

De: Marcellus Wiley

Narrado por: Marcellus Wiley

Ex-NFL player, gentleman scholar, and Fox Sports personality Marcellus Wiley sucks you into a world of inner-city violence, Ivy League intrigue, and pro-football escapades that's one part touching, one part hilarious, and all parts impossible to put down.

Marcellus Wiley has never had a problem expressing his opinion, whether it was growing up in Compton with a football tucked under his arm, or going to college at Columbia University, where he learned to survive Advanced Calculus and self-important pseudo-intellectuals. Or making it to the NFL against all odds, where he put together a 10-year career of massive paydays, massive painkillers, and massive sacks of everyone from Steve Young to Peyton Manning.

Now, in Never Shut Up, Fox Sports' hottest rising persona doesn't hold back as he goes off on everything that's controversial with the game today, from concussions to political protests to inherent violence that's worse than the hood he grew up in. Not because he hates football, but because he wants to save it.

Marcellus has never held back, even when a lot of people wanted him to. Now, he's letting it all hang out - right there in this audiobook. Way more than just another book about the latest NFL scandals, this warm, moving, and genuinely funny story of awkward transitions, family loyalty, fame, fortune, and failure will make you fall in love with Marcellus - and football - all over again.

In Never Shut Up, Marcellus will take you on a truly unique journey from Crenshaw to Broadway to the Buffalo Bills and back again, sometimes making you laugh, sometimes making you cry, but always leaving you entertained.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A candid, thoroughly appealing autobiography from an NFL player-turned-television personality who has crossed boundaries and achieved success at every level." (Library Journal)

“There are plenty of football anecdotes and insider observations here to please fans, but Wiley’s book will also appeal to anyone who values self-awareness, determination, and hard work.” (Booklist)

“An effective sports memoir, inspiring, good-natured, and sometimes rueful.” (Kirkus)

Mandatory read for the high school athlete

May the universe continue to bless Marcellus Wiley in all his endeavors. As a high school career and financial management teacher, huge advocate for the necessity of social-emotional growth of all teens, believer in life-long learning and former member of the broadcasting community, this message is one that I hope to share with so many.

Never Shut Up‼️The Audible is Bomb💫

Never Shut Up by Marcelles Wiley is a must read but the audible version is exceptionally entertaining‼️ Marcellus is Raw Real and Hilarious... my son and I listened to Never Shut Up on the way to school and basketball practice... we had a ball while sitting in traffic; sometimes sitting in the car to finish listening to the end of chapter once we were home‼️
As a former athlete and a single mom I found it to be insightful as well as an excellent bonding experience with my son as he’s growing into a young black man.
Wiley’s honesty and colorful narrative style are identifiable to all races & ages especially our younger generation that is interested in becoming professional athletes.
It is refreshing to hear a former NFL Player who has become just as successful in the media candidly talk about his experiences in life,college, and the NFL who focuses on the importance of Education and getting a college degree.
I strongly recommend Never Shut Up for all young athlete’s...the Audible is inspirational, funny and an extremely exciting listening experience ‼️

Marcellus narrating made this book.

It was great insight on Marcellus Wiley’s life and the focus and determination he had to make him and his family’s lives better. I like football and it was awesome hearing an ex-NFL football players perspective on playing in the NFL.

Awesome Journey!!! Awesome Book!

Can't wait for book two to come out! I'm so glad I listened to it. Superb story telling!

pure DatDude

i enjoyed the book it gave me further insight on a remarkable player and personality, but a far more remarkable human being. i don't share his every view but due to how he express it and cares himself i have nothing but the ultimate respect for the individual.

Well the story was good.

This would have been a great book. Using F bombs to tell your story is bit much. I appreciate where you are coming from, what you over came and the success you made for self. But dude it seemed like there was a f bomb in every paragraph.

Good and humble man

Mr. Wiley is a good man, that was my biggest take from the book. I loved his humor and his ability to be vulnerable at times. He made mistakes as we all do. But he is and was always in a state of becoming a better person. Wiley gives an amazing vibe on the importance of family. The state of the family is in decline in America in so many ways today. I wish the book had even more to say, more life details but then again Mr. Wiley is still a young man and will go on to do many more things in life. I enjoyed the intellectual honest in the book, no tribal preaching as is the norm of today, just an honest human evaluation of each circumstance. Mr. Wiley also holds himself accountable at all times, I really appreciated that. A good book by a good man
