Really enjoyed this!

Great story telling by one of the greatest Jags. Glad to hear Leon is flourishing.

Great story that is likely common among athletes

I bought this after seeing Leon in ESPN’s 30 for 30. It was eye-opening to see how everyone else around him changed when the money came and when it stopped, from his agent, to his friends, even his parents. It was a great story and I’m glad that Leon has since recovered and is doing better.
