Download The Legend of Jesse Smoke AudioBook Free
When Miss Granger, the assistant trainer for the Washington Redskins, first views Jesse Smoke, she actually is on the beach in Belize. And she has just tossed a regulation soccer a mile. Granger is aware of that Smoke's expertise is unprecedented for a woman and nearly unrivaled among men. As Granger observes her throughout a season as quarterback for the Washington Divas of the Separate Women's Football Little league, he decides to hint her to the Redskins, even as he faces burning off his job and credibility. As the first woman on a major NFL team, Jesse Smoke's incredible success places her in the traditions of athletes like Jackie Robinson and Joe Louis. Yet Smoke is quickly confronted with her own fights, like the clamor of the press, the assault of her teammates and the institutional amount of resistance that looks for to keep soccer in the hands of men. While a lady quarterback in the NFL is a fantasy at this time, Robert Bausch's genius as a writer makes it an extremely engaging actuality on the page. Fans of soccer - and listeners who had been just waiting for a player worth looking towards - will relish Jesse Smoke's quest to the big leagues.
