The authors provide a humorous and in-depth look at ABC's "Monday Night Football." The book starts with the history of the then-radical concept of pro football played on a weeknight and the men who made it a reality, including Roone Arledge, Chet Forte, Pete Rozelle, and of course, Howard Cosell. The book, fortunately, looks past the schtick and examines the background of the broadcasters and producers and how they came together to create what is now an American institution.
