In his book, former Pittsburgh Steelers player Andy Russell shares his experiences on the football field and the unforgettable personalities he encountered. He also discusses the lessons he learned from mentors and values he gained from his teammates. Russell recounts his 10 most memorable games and the opponents they faced during their successful run to four Super Bowl championships. The book is dedicated to his late friend and mentor, Walter Bent, who inspired and supported him throughout his journey. As a follow-up to his popular book, A Steeler Odyssey, former Pittsburgh Steelers star Andy Russell delves deeper into the world of professional football with an odd Steelers journey. Russell gives readers a sense for what it is like to be on the field with a championship team and provides an up-close look at several of the unforgettable personalities who have touched his life. He passes on some of the lessons he learned from such mentors as Dan Devine, Chuck Knoll, and Art Rooney, and the values he attained from Hall of Fame locker mates like Rocky Blyer, Franco Harris, and Mean Joe Green. Russell also tells stories about his 10 most memorable games and the opponents he and the Steelers faced during their storied run to four Super Bowl championships. This book is almost as good as a pair of 50-yard line seats at Heinz Field, 2002. Dedication. This book is dedicated to my good friend and mentor, Walter Bent, a wonderful family man and successful entrepreneur who passed away last year after a valiant struggle against cancer. Walter was always an inspiration, pushing me to work harder and chase my dreams. He significantly enriched my journey, and I am forever indebted.
