Product Information

He was one of pro football's most beloved and respected stars, admired not only by NFL fans and his own teammates, but by his opponents as well. Super Bowl champion; six time Pro Bowler; NFL Comeback Player of the Year; NFL Man of the Year; fifth all-time leading rusher in the NFL; future Hall of Famer; now NBC Sports commentator. You may think you know Jerome Bettis, but you don't. In The Bus , Jerome Bettis tells his full, unvarnished story for the first time--from his sometimes troubled childhood in inner-city Detroit to his difficult transition at Notre Dame, to a pro coach who almost caused him to quit the game, to a trade for the ages that resulted in ten glorious seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. As a chunky child wearing glasses, Jerome's only sports-related aspiration was to become a professional bowler. But growing up in one of the roughest neighborhoods in Detroit, he eventually found his escape on the high school football field, thanks to the devotion of hard-working parents, a concerned coach, and his prodigious talent. He arrived at Notre Dame as one of the nation's best prep players, but despite his incredible performances, he never stopped worrying that he would somehow blow his chance to make good. Drafted and later discarded by the Los Angeles Rams, it was in the football-obsessed city of Pittsburgh that Jerome found his home and became a legend. The Bus captures the sweetness and honesty of Bettis, but also details the jaw-dropping, violent nature of the game he loved, the mind-boggling injuries he endured, and the cut-throat NFL business tactics he overcame and later mastered. Through it all, Jerome was also a loving son, an adoring father, and the ultimate teammate and mentor. The Bus not only takes you under the helmet, but inside the huddle, the locker room, the practice field, the negotiating table, the owner's office, and the Super Bowl sideline. You'll learn how Bettis became The Bus, how he helped engineer the greatest trade in Steelers history, how he almost cost Pittsburgh a conference championship, and how sweet it was to win-finally-one for the thumb.

    bus rolls over critics

    everyone thinks that they know the bus. having been a steelers fan for over 15 years i thought i did too. yet there were some parts to this future hall of famer's life that outright surprised me. it was also great to see those AFC champoinship losses from the inside. boy did those hurt. the one thing that was missing... how much Neil O'Donell got paid by Jerry Jones to throw those 2 terrible picks in the super bowl.

    What a great book

    Well I just started to read the book. However so far its already exciting. The way the author prints Jerome's life is awesome and you feel like youre standing on a football field.

    The Bus Rides Again!

    Jerome Bettis's new book, My Life In and Out of a Helmet, is a moving autobiography. It reads much better than the typical "I was a great player in the NFL" type book that many former players put out. Bettis comes across as frank and honest. Well done!

    What an awesome book.

    Very good insight into the life of one of the best running backs ever! Very well written and it's a quick read. I read it in about 8 hours total.
