With that said, I thought this book was awesome. It was open, honest, raw and real. The way a good biography should be written. He didn't hold back and told it like it was. It was also well written which is a testament to his co-author. Very, very good read! ( ) If you follow football at all, you probably heard about Victor Cruz. He was an undrafted rookie free agent who signed with the New York Giants' football team, only to sit out most of the 2010 season with a hamstring injury. But in 2011, he made headlines, apparently coming out of nowhere to become Eli Manning's go-to receiver on third down. Cruz's autobiography details exactly where he came from, starting in a rough neighborhood in Paterson, New Jersey to go to the University of Massachusetts, through all the hardship and determination to make it in the NFL. As a huge Giants fan from a family of Giants fans and a UMass alum, I may be biased, but I think even non-football fans would enjoy this read. He has a sense of where he's come from and knows he's a role model. Cruz shows how many times he could have ended in failure by bad decisions or just pure bad luck, and how hard his mother and his coaches worked to make him the young man he is today. The style of writing is chatty and personable (in my head, I could often hear Cruz's voice from the highlights). An entertaining and inspiring read I'll be recommending to my family. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
"Puede parecer que salí de la nada. Pero mi camino fue largo, agitado, lleno de obstáculos, e incluso de algunas calles sin salida. He perdido familiares. He perdido amigos. Incluso perdí mi camino. Cuando toque a lo que parecía ser el fondo, me di cuenta de que tenía una responsabilidad con todos los que creían en mí y en los chicos como yo, que solo necesitan una oportunidad y algo en que creer."--del epilogo de Momento de Gloria Victor Cruz, amplio receptor, batidor de varios y ganador del Super Bowl, es mejor conocido por sus jugadas explosivas y celebrar los touchdowns bailando salsa. Aunque su meteórico ascenso en la NFL parecía ser resultado de un año mágico, en realidad fue el trabajo de toda una vida. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
