Publisher's summary

This audiobook is just another great story, one of the best Kevin Mclemore has written. The lessons portrayed in this audiobook guide you through Kevin's lifelong journey, from a boy, raised in a challenging environment to the ever-optimistic, driven man he is today. Kevin writes about overcoming and improving from experiences that read like the movie Cooley written by Eric Monte.

The Indispensable Game of X's and O's: How I Learned Everything I Ever Needed to Know About Life by Playing High School Football, goes far beyond “the indispensable game of X’s and O’s”. It reaches out to people from all walks of life who feel hopeless, and are looking for some kind of sign that will help them create their own fight song, to finally finding the strength, the courage to overcome the impossible and begin to live an extraordinary life with purpose and grace.

This audiobook speaks the truth within you. There is not a big secret for positive thinking, reinventing yourself, or living a dynamic life other than your choices. You need to know how to harness that attitude, the power within, believe. We all have a voice, a story to tell, find your “why”. In this life, we have “one voice”, “dream big”, find your fight song, and believe in this life, that all is possible.

Xs and 0-mazing

I throughly enjoy this book. There are so many great parts of this book but the one that stands out the most is his relationship with his mom. Hurts of the past can rob us of our future by impacting our peace. When he talked about throwing jabs. We throw those verbal jabs because we are hurting. I did this to my fiancé and others. Moving forward I will also try hard to not do this. My fiancé is no longer here, he died in 2017 but others are still around that I can be more forgiving of. Such an amazing book.

Insightful, thought-provoking, and inspiring read.

Inspiring - even to non-athletes like myself. Kevin's ability to convert vulnerability into a powerful story is a testament to his character and skills as a storyteller. I thoroughly enjoyed his insights and thought-provoking anecdotes that challenged me in all the right ways.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who's feeling a little uncertain about their path and life journey.

I especially enjoyed the interview at the end with the narrator, Dru Hepkins and the author, Kevin McLemore.

Become your own greatness!

Kevin’s book is absolutely amazing and motivating!!! Through his life lessons you can really see how your story can either propel you to do great things, or to fall back. Everyone should read/listen to this book! So grateful for Kevin’s message to share so graciously with the world!

Life's most important lessons obtained from the experience and execution of a humble GIANT!

An exceptional read with humility and power in every word. I cried, I laughed out loud I even dreamed as I was woke. I saw my pass, my present and my future as each chapter went on. I clapped, I exhaled and I envisioned the life I gave up on before I became paralyzed with fear and shame. This book will not only MAKE YOU BREAK THE TAPE in the race of life but catapult you to the starting line with your GOLDEN BATON in hand.

Thank you Kevin McLemore!
