Aaron Rodgers Book Club

Aaron Rodgers Book Club
Back in 2021, Aaron Rodgers shared his love of reading during a weekly interview with Pat McAfee. What started as a simple suggestion turned into a weekly "I wonder what Aaron's going to recommend next?" 

Rodgers would go on to recommend 28 total books (plus a bonus coloring book) over a two-year stretch. For anyone looking to gain a deeper insight into the mind of one of the NFL's most elite quarterbacks, this list alone is proof of both Rodgers' introspective view of life, along with his diverse interests. 

The 28 books below are listed in order based on when they were recommended, starting with Aaron's first recommendation, The Alchemist. 

(For more information on any book, please click on the book's cover or the "Buy On Amazon" button.)

Book Review: Pacing The Sidelines by Gary J. Kirchner

Book Review: Pacing the Sidelines
Last month, I got an email from an author I had never heard of. His name? Gary J. Kirchner. Hailing from Canada, I learned that Kirchner had both played and coached football at McGill University, a highly regarded public research institution in Montreal. 

His ask? Check out his new book, "Pacing The Sidelines," which is the first in a two-part series about football. When people reach out, unless I have absolutely no interest in the subject, I will almost always read their book. It's really the essence of what this site is: a place to uncover new sports books, highlight lesser-known authors, and provide recommendations on books that I feel are worth your time. 

To be fair, I've read plenty of books that I subsequently haven't written about. And while I could start writing reviews of every title I complete, I just don't believe in recapping something that I think is three stars or less.

Monday thoughts graphic
It was another exciting sports weekend between NCAA and NFL football games, not to mention pretty much every detail being posted from "secret" NCAA basketball scrimmages. 
"The scrimmage was a secret, but our point guard scored 40 so we'll talk about it," seemed to be a prominent rationale for programs across the country. ​

Donald Driver Driven
In the summer of 2006, I had the opportunity to intern at a sports management agency. I'd work at the agency in the mornings, eat a sandwich at the office, then tuck my dress pants into my socks and bike to my second job as a bank teller. It was a full day, but I learned a lot about all aspects of business.

The best football speeches
I'm a sucker for great speeches and have been fortunate to have been around some tremendous motivators, both as an athlete and as a business person. Some people just have that "it" factor that draws your attention. Some are tremendous motivators; others make the complex simple. The beauty of speaking is that there is no "right way" to do it.
