Story4.5 out of 5 stars 32
NFL Brawler is a raucous first-person account of an NFL under siege by the game's first player turned agent, Ralph Cindrich, the original "Blind Side" agent. This entertaining pro football memoir takes listeners behind the scenes of the game's most important and outrageous drafts, deals, and trades; takes on NFL scandals by telling it like it is; and takes listeners closer to the real action of the sport - from locker rooms to boardrooms and into the worlds of agents and players - than any book to date.

For 15 years, sports agent Josh Luchs made illegal deals with numerous college athletes, from top-tier, nationally recognized phenoms to late-round draft picks. Then, in October 2010, Luchs wrote a confessional article in Sports Illustrated, telling the truth about what he did and didn't do. Since then, he has taken on a new role: whistle-blowing, truth-telling reformer. In telling his own story, Luchs here pulls back the curtain on the real economy - and the broken system - of college football.

Publisher's Summary
Super Agent. Maverick. Reformer. Iconoclast. Dealmaker. Dentist? Jerry Argovitz has worn many hats in his remarkable life, both inside and outside of the world of sports. As a player agent representing and advising some of the biggest names in the game, Argovitz challenged the NFL both at the negotiating table and in the courtroom, earning a reputation as one of the most powerful men in professional sports. He successfully negotiated the first million-dollar guaranteed contract in NFL history, wrote the language for career-ending insurance policy underwriting for Lloyds of London, and brokered the deal that brought Heisman Trophy–winner Herschel Walker to the upstart USFL as a junior, which opened the floodgates for all underclassmen to follow.
As the owner of the Houston Gamblers of the USFL, Argovitz helped to implement several rules which were subsequently adopted by the NFL, and served as a principal figure in a lawsuit against the NFL that proved the league was guilty of Sherman Antitrust violations. Now, Argovitz has a plan to reform the corrupt world of college sports, a plan he will share in this eye-opening book.

Easily the Worst Book I've Ever Listened to
If you love shameless bragging from someone who is basically explaining over the course of a book that he has no credibility, then this is the book for you. If you like ppl who complain about Donald Trump then carry out his orders zealously and shamelessly, then this is the book for you bc that's exactly what happens at the end (with zero explanation as to why, just lame, empty regret). The narration was comically bad, the author is a flaming tool whose mantra is the same as the Donald's 'If you're telling the truth, you ain't bragging.' No shame, no credibility, and half of the book is just lame stories and exaggerations. I feel sorry for anyone who has purchased this book or plans to in the future.

Every Student-Athlete and parents should read this book
This was quite the eye opener. Gives you a better perspective on the history of the NCAA, NFL and how far the NFL professional athletes has come. I can say that Dr. Jerry Argovitz did what was right - not easy. As Bruce Lee said, “Do not pray for an easy life; pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.”
