About the Book

NFL Brawler is a raucous first-person account of an NFL under siege by the game’s first player-turned-agent, Ralph Cindrich, the original “Blind Side” agent whose entertaining pro football memoir takes readers behind the scenes of the game’s most important and outrageous drafts, deals, and trades; takes on NFL scandals by tellin’ it like it is; and takes readers closer to the real action of the sport—from locker rooms to boardrooms, and into the worlds of agents and players—than any book to date. Chronicling more than thirty years in the professional football business—on the field and in the locker room; in high-stakes negotiations with coaches, GMs, and owners; and inside agents’ and players’ personal lives—Cindrich, twice named by The Sporting News as one of the 100 most powerful people in sports, writes about a who’s who of professional football: NFL coaches like Bill Parcells, Jimmy Johnson, Mike Ditka, Sid Gillman, and Bill Belichick; NFL owners like Art Rooney and Al Davis to Jerry Jones and others; other sports agents; and the NFL talking heads from John Madden to Keyshawn Johnson. While taking certain aspects of his beloved sport to task, Cindrich’s memoir is entertaining—blowing out of the water Jerry Maguire, Arli$$, and other portrayals of an agent’s life.

About the Author :
A star linebacker at the University of Pittsburgh, Ralph Cindrich played for the NFL’s New England Patriots, Houston Oilers and Denver Broncos. In the 1980s he became one of the pro game’s most prominent player agents. Soon he was ranked among the most powerful people in sports. USA Today called Cindrich “the undisputed free-agent champ.” His pioneering work for left tackle Will Wolford was featured in Michael Lewis’s The Blind Side. Today he represents several second-generation clients, teaches sports-law classes and serves as an expert witness in multimillion-dollar labor cases. He lives in Pittsburgh with his wife, Mary.

Review :
'Ralph Cindrich is the ultimate football insider—fans will be fighting to see who can be first to read his book. I look forward to interviewing him on air when it comes out.' —John Clayton, ESPN and ESPN.com, Inductee of the Writer’s Wing of the Pro Football Hall of Fame ‘Tape your ankles, put on your shoulder pads, adjust your helmet and get ready for an unforgettable ride that will take you behind the scenes with some of the biggest stories in pro football for four decades.’—John Clayton, ESPN and ESPN.com, Inductee of the Writer’s Wing of the Pro Football Hall of Fame 'In my 40-plus years of sports coverage, I would place Ralph Cindrich at the top of my most memorable power brokers. Ralph was respected, feared and reviled by NFL GMs who reluctantly stepped into the ring with a guy they knew could not be intimidated, who was a savvy, tenacious negotiator and a master manipulator of the media….' —Chris Mortensen, ESPN NFL Senior Insider “He used his brains and brawn to bloody the theater that is the NFL. And he could make 'em all laugh in the end, even if it hurt. This book is your chance to meet him. Enjoy.’-- Chris Mortensen, ESPN NFL Senior Insider 'Cindrich isn’t just the man behind the Blind Side—he’s the man behind my career. If anybody’s got the cure for what ails our national game, it's colorful, quotable, one-of-a-kind Ralph, one of America’s great rascals.' —Mark May, former NFL Pro Bowl and Super Bowl Champion guard, ESPN analyst and commentator “Finally, a true inside, no-holds barred book on what it’s like as one of the top player agents in the NFL for more than three decades. The chapters on Bill Fralic Sr. & Jr. are priceless. He was in the middle of the Herschel Walker deal. He virtually invented the “poison pill.’’ The NFL itself came after him hard only for that to be undone after a league suit crashed to the floor on a well-placed wobbly chair in Cindrich’s Pittsburgh office.”--Ed Bouchette, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
