The Greatest Running Back EVER!!!
Have you ever seen Terrell Davis play football? Well Terrell Davis was the one of the best running backs for the Denver Broncos and the NFL. Terrell is an African- American man who lived in a bad neighborhood. Also, he had a lot of migraine headaches. As a kid he played little league football and went on to play high school football. In high school, he played on offense and defense being the best player on his team. The college scouts saw Terrell's talent in football, so he earned a scholarship toplay football at Georgia (the college). He finished college and then got drafted in the 6th round by the Denver Broncos. Terrell was a slow runner, but was tough and buff. Terrell couldn't play as a rookie for a little while but the next year he became the starting running back for the Broncos. Terrell led his team to two Super Bowl victories with John Elway. John Elway was one of the best quarterbacks. (A quarterback is a person who throws the football to a receiver and hikes the ball). Before Terrell retired, he set a lot of records, won lots of awards, and won one MVP award. I learned all of this by reading,On the Field with Terrell Davis, by Matt Christopher.

I liked this book because it tells you about football and the best player in the NFL. Also, I liked this book because it tells you about all the highlights and the childhood of Terrell. Matt Christopher has written a lot of books about sports stars. He wrote about Tiger Woods, Randy Johnson, Greg Maddox, and Steve Young. I read most of his books but I really like reading the book about Terrell Davis. I recommend this book to football fans.

On the Field with Terrell Davis
On The Field With Terrell Davis was great.Terrell Davis's rushing recordwas 329 yards. Terrell Davis grew up around drugs andalcohol. But he still went to college and
got drafted sixth in the NFL.
He was a two- time Super Bowl champion1999.In 1998, he had 78 carries, 468 yards, 6.0 average, 3 touchdowns, and4 catch. Terrell Davis best year was in 1997.I like the book On the Field with Terrell Davis because It had his career stats. Career stats are his yards. Touchdowns and stuff like that.
I wish the book had been longer I'm not going to tell you the whole book.If you want to learn more about the book read On The Field With Terrell Davis.

Dreams In Motion

He is the American Football Conference's rushing champion, the outstanding player who has made NFL history rushing for 2,000 yards in a single season. He is the league's 1998 Most Valuable Player. Now in this deeply honest book, two-time world champion and record-setting Super Bowl XXXII MVP Terrell Davis recounts the inspiring, fascinating story of his life, a tale of adversity and triumph that makes carrying a football seem easy.

From his Pop Warner days, when he was known as "Boss Hogg" to nearly being overlooked by college scouts; from overcoming migraines to surviving a contentious father; from attending a school whose football program folded after he arrived to a difficult intercollegiate sports career; from his battle from sixth string to starting running back for the Broncos his rookie year to becoming one of the NFL's top--and nicest, most likable--players, TD takes you on a journey into the mind and heart of a superstar. Informative, uplifting, TD shows how Terrell has maintained the edge to succeed others have lost and celebrates his unique relationship with the person he calls "my hero," his mother, a remarkable woman who's been beside him through it all.

TD is an extraordinary story--the memoirs of a champion.Amazon.com Review
In 1996, when Adam Schefter was asked to cowrite TerrellDavis's book, Shefter thought it was a bit premature. After all, Davishad just finished his first year in the NFL. But after Terrell rushedfor three touchdowns and 157 yards in the Denver Broncos' Super BowlXXXII upset victory over the Green Bay Packers, Shefter and Terrellstarted their work. After spending hundreds of hours with Terrell inan effort to better understand him as a person rather than a player,Shefter wonders why the book wasn't written sooner.

Dreams inMotion certainly captures Davis's gridiron heroics, but moreimportantly, it focuses on the incredible amount of off-fieldchallenges he's overcome to reach this high level of success. Thanksto his mother's lessons of love, hard work, and high standards, hesurvives a tough San Diego upbringing, a hard-nosed father, and afootball path that derails at almost every level. And despiteseemingly less-than-adequate football skills, Davis rises up throughthe NFL ranks with unwavering resolve, proving the importance of amother's work. --Ben Tiffany ... Read more

Great book from one of Denvers all time greats
I liked reading this book. Terrell explained a lot of things through his life and his career. It shows that he has gone through some rough things in his life but remained a humble person that did not allow the success of the NFL get to him. The only thing that baffles me, is how so much this guy could continue to glorify a father that did nothing but abuse him, his mother, and his brothers. I do not see how a man such of his nature should be glorified, when in fact he should be viewed as a lousy father, husband, and influence on his children. His mother raised him to be the man he has become. Not his father. Overall, it was a good read and I would recommend it to anyone.

Review of TD: Dreams in Motion
After reading this book I felt like I wanted to become a professional football player.Just reading about Terrell Davis's life, I didn't want to stop; it was so interesting.It seemed like this book just couldn't be long enough.
This is an autobiography that Terrell Davis, a superstar running back, told in the first person.This book starts out by Terrell explaining how he was feeling during the Super Bowl XXXII.During this game he got a migraine that took him out of the game for the second half.This is a game he would never forget.
Terrell Davis is the youngest of six; all children are boys, Terry, Terrell, Bobby, James, Reggie, and Joe.Terrell was born in San Diego in 1972.His father, Joe Earl Davis, was a very violent man, one night he came home drunk about 2 A.M., and he pulled each of his brothers out of bed, lined them up against the wall, pulled out his .38 Special with black electric tape around the grip, and just started shooting right above their heads.On April 17, 1987, his father died of Lupus, an immune-deficiency disease in which the body doesn't recognize itself and starts to attack itself.
Terrell played baseball but wasn't much good at it.But football was different for him.He started out playing Pop Warner as the Velencia Park Saints, in Velencia, he played high school ball at Lincoln High School, and went to the University of Georgia and played College ball their.He wasn't the best football player in college, but his senior year he stepped it up to get into the NFL, especially his last two games in college.He was chosen along with fifteen other running backs to go to an annual NFL's scouting combine, it's another chance to make an impression on a team.For the physical he was stripped down naked, walked out on a stage, while the Teams' trainers took a closer look.
Terrell Davis was drafted to the Denver Broncos, a team he thought would never take him, during the sixth round of the draft.While on the Broncos he was a sixth-string running back and only went in a little bit during the pre-season his rookie year, but when he was in he did good enough to start at running back during the regular season.After his rookie year was over, he rushed for 1,117 yards, caught passes for 367 yard, for a total of 1,484 yards.During his next two seasons, the Broncos won the Super Bowl, for two years straight.
Terrell Davis still plays for the Broncos, and still continues to break records.He is one of my favorite players and I had the opportunity to meet him in 1999.I really admire his determination to the sport.
If you have ever read one of those books where they stay on the same subject forever, then don't read this book; he talks about the same thing forever.But this book is great for football fans, and even better for Broncos fans.I really liked this book since I could relate to Denver, since I used to live there, and it was really fun to understand where and what he was talking about.

Dreams In Slow Motion
In today's football world, Terrell Davis is known as a superstar, but not in the literature world.He was trying to accomplish this literature superstar role when he co-wrote his own memoir with Adam Schefter.An all pro athlete and a sports writer, a very thoughtless combination in the literature circuit.Throughout this novel, we hear some about the struggle of growing up in a bad neighborhood for Terrell Davis, but not nearly enough.This is mostly a story about football and migraines.

Terrell Davis had a troubled past and had to overcome it all to be a Super Bowl M.V.P.He wrote this book to let people all over the country know that they can overcome their troubled lives and turn a negative view of life into a positive one.

This book had its ups and downs, but for the most part it was down.It seemed, for the first half of the book, that every chapter went back to migraines and the repetition was incredibly boring.In the second half it was football and also came across as mostly uninteresting.I don't think that Terrell Davis was ready to write a book.He does not have the concept of grabbing the readers attention.Also, only having played two years in
the NFL, he wrote this book way to early in his career and could have made it much more interesting if he had let more of his career in it.

One thing that was good about this memoir was hearing his passion for football.If there was any sort of true writing in this book, it was when he was going deep into how he feels for the game.This is probably the one thing that keeps this book from being bought and then placed in the garbage.

So as a memoir, I believe this would be a poor choice for a well written piece of literature.Overall, this book ultimately shouldn't have been published for anything other than having Terrell Davis' signature put on it.But for sports fans, a Terrell Davis memoir with his signature on it would be a definite must have.

Terell is fine
Terell looks good and I bought the book for the pictures. I hope his future books have lots more pictures!
