Jeff has written several books including but not necessarily limited to Football for a Buck: The Crazy Rise and Crazier Demise of the USFL, Brett Favre: Gunslinger, Showtime, Sweetness, and The Bad Guys Won!    *** This show is a part of the Podglomerate network, a company that produces, distributes, and monetizes podcasts.
