[.ca] Kardiac Kids: The Story of the 1980 Cleveland Browns (ISBN 0873387619)

for fans of all ages:
i am 15 years old, and a browns fanatic. i am unfortunate enough to have not experienced the 1980 season firsthand. however, this book makes me feel as if i had. i picked it up because my dad would always tell me stories of how good they were and it made me want to be a part of it. it is very well written, blending accounts of the PD (clevelanders know what that is) with insights from the players and coaches. this is the best book about the brwns i have ever read, and aside from friday night lights, this is my favorite book of all time.

a great piece of history:
The amount of work the author must have put into this book is astounding. Research is the key to writing books about actual periods of time and Knight obviously did his share. If you're a football fan, this tale of a team that nearly stopped the hearts of all of Cleveland every week is a must read.

Is it football season yet?:
This is a fantastic account of the 1980 Cleveland Browns. Despite the fact that Cincinnati is the best city in Ohio, this book is a great reminder that not everything from Cleveland is bad. This is definitely worth a read - check it out!!

HEART STOPPING KARDIAC KIDS:
THIS IS A VERY GOOD READ CONCERNING THE 1980 CLEVELAND BROWNS ON A ROLLER COASTER RIDE ON THEIR WAY TO THE PLAYOFFS. THE AUTHOR DOES A GOOD JOB RECALLING ALL THE EXCITING, FRUSTRATING AND DISAPPOINTING MOMENTS OF THIS MEMORABLE SEASON FOR THE BROWNS. HE COVERS HOW THE TEAM WAS PUT TOGETHER, INTERVIEWS FROM PLAYERS AND COACHES FROM THAT TEAM, AND GAME BY GAME REVIEW. ALSO COVERS DRUG ABUSE, TEAM COVERAGE OF PREVIOUS AND NEXT SEASONS. JONATHAN KNIGHT CERTAINLY DID A LOT OF RESEARCH AND RESULTS ARE A GREAT JOB. VERY RECOMMENDED.

Great book one the greatest franchises in NFL history..:
This book breaks down one of the finest seasons in modern Cleveland Browns history. The Kardiac Kids were a group like none other in Cleveland sports. Knight does a wonderful job of making you feel like your a part of the play-by-play of this great season. It also helps solidify why the Brownies are one of the most storied franchises in NFL history. It is a wonderful read if your a Browns' fan like myself or just a fan of the NFL.
