Description
For more than 90 years, the Green Bay Packers have been the model of excellence across the National Football League. Now, LeRoy Butler-a 12-year veteran and one of the most popular Packers ever to don the uniform-teams up with Rob Reischel to tell the stories of the Packers' most memorable players and coaches, including Bart Starr, Paul Hornung, Forrest Gregg, Jim Taylor, Herb Adderly, Willie Wood, James Lofton, Sterling Sharpe, Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers, and Donald Driver to name but a few. Packers Pride looks at the favorite games, favorite moments, and behind-the-scenes stories of the men who played and coached for the team with 13 World Championships, more than any other team in football.
