Welcome to the Blue 58 Book Club, a miniseries of spinoff episodes where I take a look at some notable books that you might want to add to your football library.


Our first book for the Blue 58 Book Club is Starr: My Life in Football by Bart Starr. There are many affordable copies of the book available, so if you're inclined to join the discussion, order one and get reading. We'd love to have you along for the ride.
