I did know some things, but it was extremely helpful to me. This book has helped me a lot.
If you know nothing of the game the first part might even be a challenge. I knew a little about football to begin with so the first part of the book was helpful, but the rest of the book got too technical, completely lost me.
I love football and i know some things about this sport, but this guide gives you a complete step by step explanation.Great for all fans
I was really disappointed that the one aspect of the game I was most interested in (the actual GAME) was so poorly rendered. I like the straightforwardness of the writing, and the insight into the appeal of the game. Alas, if you're an outsider hoping to learn the game from scratch, you're going to have a lot of trouble--after teaching you rudimentary terms, the writers start describing the game as if you've been watching it all your life, tossing barely-introduced jargon around all over the place.
Now, my husband was surprised that I knew football so well and we discussed football a lot during the regular season this year. Anyone has no idea about football, this book can help. More interesting is the book gives many statistics and facts that I was impressed by the football business.
He is a football fan and he keeps track his team every day, not to mention especially during the regular season every Sunday. I asked many questions while I was watching the game, because I wanted to understand it more. I'm a Chinese girl and never watched any American football games in Hong Kong until I married to an American and moved to United States one and half years ago.
Therefore, I read this book last year and it gave me a lot of basic information in an easy way. This book helps us to have more conversation topics. I started to watch football games with him, and I liked it a lot.
Now, I understand why so many American like football.
