The Complete Idiot's Guide to Football (2nd Edition) review:3 stars (Good for football culture, kinda weak and jargony on actual rules) - I like the straightforwardness of the writing, and the insight into the appeal of the game. Alas, if you're an outsider hoping to learn the game from scratch, you're going to have a lot of trouble--after teaching you rudimentary terms, the writers start describing the game as if you've been watching it all your life, tossing barely-introduced jargon around all over the place. I was really disappointed that the one aspect of the game I was most interested in (the actual GAME) was so poorly rendered.5 stars (You will know football even though you are not an American) - I'm a Chinese girl and never watched any American football games in Hong Kong until I married to an American and moved to United States one and half years ago. He is a football fan and he keeps track his team every day, not to mention especially during the regular season every Sunday.
I started to watch football games with him, and I liked it a lot. Now, I understand why so many American like football. I asked many questions while I was watching the game, because I wanted to understand it more. Therefore, I read this book last year and it gave me a lot of basic information in an easy way. More interesting is the book gives many statistics and facts that I was impressed by the football business. Anyone has no idea about football, this book can help.
Now, my husband was surprised that I knew football so well and we discussed football a lot during the regular season this year. This book helps us to have more conversation topics.
5 stars (Excellent book) - I have been an NFL fan for 20+ years but, never having played the game, I didn't completely understood all the different player positions and their responsibilities. Joe Theismann did an outstanding job explaining the rules, positions, history and everything else about the game. I knew most of the basic rules but not all of them. For example, Joe explains which rules change in the final two minutes of each half. I believe anyone interested in football would benefit from reading this book, including beginners. I have started reading it a second time, there is so much good information. P.S. I would rate this book 5 stars even if I wasn't a Joe Theismann and Washington Redskins fan!
