Recenzii
“Jeffrey Marx captures a remarkable story, and reveals a very human athlete with faith, doubt, and an underappreciated skill. The Long Snapper would be marvelous fiction; that this account is the ultimate truth is its great joy.” — Bob Ley, ESPN
“Don’t we all long for one last chance? Don’t we all dream to do it over again? Anybody who has ever had those pangs will love Jeffrey Marx’s beautiful and uplifting story about a guy who had opportunity dropped into his lap.” — Frank Deford, Sports Illustrated
“Jeffrey Marx has done it again, only better than ever. The improbable story of Brian Kinchen blooms in Marx’s gifted hands. Thoughtful and inspiring, The Long Snapper is a quite simply a joy to behold.” — Rick Telander, Chicago Sun Times
“A great story.” — Vinny Testaverde
“A real-life inspirational story of a young man .... Kinchen’s unexpected opportunity was wonderful on its own but more so because it clarified what was truly valuable in his life: marriage, family, and teaching. Nicely done, with plenty of insider football action.” — Booklist
“Jeffrey Marx tells Kinchen’s story with wit and grace, spotlighting a position often lost in the NFL trenches.” — Sports Illustrated
“You’ll find yourself asking some core questions about what matters and what doesn’t...Marx tells the tale with simple eloquence.” — Cincinnati Enquirer
“A compelling read.” — Houston Chronicle
“The book is a lesson about achieving your dreams, and realizing that what you’ve sought all along was right in front of you the whole time.” — Fellowship of Christian Athletes
“A page-turner that succinctly captures the true-life story of football player Brian Kinchen.” — Chicago Tribune
“A moving-right-along recounting of one of those odysseys that screams to be made into a movie. It is much, much more than your conventional “sports book.”” — Philadelphia Inquirer
“The Long Snapper is an inspirational and compelling tale of New England Patriot Brian Kinchen’s journey from seventh grade Bible studies teacher to Super Bowl champion.” — New Orleans Times Picayune
