Reseña del libro "Spud's Experimental Year (en Inglés)"
Spud Tatum, a native of South Louisiana, was given a second chance! He was physically re-engineered and endowed with World Class Speed. With this talent he traveled to Savannah, Georgia and tried out as a “walk on” Defensive Back- (Strong Side Safety) with the “Savannah Colonels” at the insistence of Dan Wells, Head Scout for the Colonels. Dan was his girlfriend’s Uncle, and a chance acquaintance. Blinding speed, perfect timing and opportunity turn Spud into an NFL Star with the “upstart” Savannah Colonels, a young Expansion Team that was not expected to go far in the league. Something intangible happens to the team, and they rally around Spud to play far beyond their means. Spud makes friends, helps others, and is consumed by a young lady, “Lessy”, a teenager in a wheelchair. Savannah is a great city full of real characters and the story is a rolling account of how Spud keeps his head on his shoulders by fishing, hunting, and grounding himself with friends, and a “family” he constructs from scratch! Something he sorely lacked, and didn’t know it.
