The Mental Performance Index
Author: John F. Murray
Publisher: World Audience, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781935444893
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
"You've got to continually eliminate errors and take pride in not making mental and physical mistakes. It takes extra work, extra thoughts, and extra practice to get it all done. It just doesn't happen on Sunday. You have to make up your minds to get it done and make up your minds to win." -Don Shula, Head Coach, Baltimore Colts (1963-1969) and Miami Dolphins (1970-1995). Most Career Wins (347), Most Super Bowl Appearances (6), Only Perfect Season (1972 Miami Dolphins), and 2 Super Bowl Titles with the Miami Dolphins (VII & VIII) "This is a fascinating work of remarkable scope and scholarship. Dr. Murray has devised a valid new way to measure and predict greatness in the game of football." -Steve Sabol, President of NFL FILMS "Everyone is gifted, but not everyone opens the package. Open this package and you will understand the secret advantage that helped keep me in the NFL for 12 years!" -Jim "Crash" Jensen, Miami Dolphins All Purpose Player (1981-1992), NFL Special Teams Player of Year (1988), "Miami Dolphins Unsung Hero" (2006) "As a professional kicking coach, who has spent my entire career working with professional athletes, I feel that John has done a brilliant job of demonstrating the importance of mental toughness, and intelligent play in professional football! 'The Mental Performance Index: Ranking the Best Teams in Super Bowl History' should be required reading for all football coaches at every level of the game. His book is masterfully done, and clearly outlines that mental preparedness, and intelligence on the playing field, is equally as important as physical ability and athletic talent!" "John, I truly believe that you have created a masterpiece! As a kicking coach, I am very excited about what you have done." -Doug Blevins, President, DOUG BLEVINS KICKING AND PUNTING, Miami Dolphins Kicking Coach, Football Consultant "Dr. John F. Murray is trailblazing a new frontier in understanding and appreciating football and helping teams win! This is a must read for coaches, reporters and anyone who loves the sport." -Jim Martz, Miami Herald sports writer (1970-1990), Editor of Cane Sport (University of Miami fan magazine), Author of 4 Miami Hurricanes books "Today's athletes are blessed with unprecedented physical talent, speed, strength, grace, facilities, technologies, and coaching. Unfortunately, they are often plagued by an ADD culture that inhibits their most important asset in performance - bringing their passion and focus to the moment. Whether the placekicker with a last minute game-winning field goal, an offensive lineman who goes off-sides on a key 4th down in the 4th quarter, or the safety who blows a coverage that costs a game, it is the individuals, but more importantly the TEAMS that play with collective intelligence that consistently win championships. Dr. John F Murray's Mental Performance Index helps us finally understand how and why teams like Bill Belichick's New England Patriots play smarter. I learned in almost 20 years in the NFL that it was improving my capacity to focus on the right things in the moments of truth that took me from a good college placekicker to the most accurate kicker in NFL History. Read this book and carve out new space in your life for lasting success!" -Nick Lowery, New England Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs & New York Jets Placekicker (1978-1996) "Catching or dropping the big pass in a game actually happens long before the game in great or poor mental preparation. By measuring terrific execution, or it's opposite in carelessness and mental errors, Dr. Murray is also capturing how well players prepare mentally before the big game!" -Dan Johnson, Miami Dolphins tight end (1983-1987), Caught a touchdown pass from Dan Marino in the first quarter of Super Bowl XIX

The Super Bowl
Author: David Fischer
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1613218974
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
In 1966, as the champions of the AFL and NFL prepared to play each other for the first time, Kansas City Chiefs–owner Lamar Hunt wrote the following to Commissioner Pete Rozelle: “I have kiddingly called [the championship game] the Super Bowl, which obviously can be improved upon.” How wrong Hunt was. After the AFL merged with the NFL, “Super Bowl” became the official title of the NFL championship game in the years to come. In celebration of the first fifty Super Bowls, David Fischer traces its evolution from a game that didn’t sell out in 1967 to a worldwide phenomenon with a viewership in the hundreds of millions. Packed with dozens of arresting full-color illustrations—highlighting game action, memorabilia, and players and coaches—The Super Bowl includes sections on the greatest games, individual performances, and game-changing plays. Fischer explores unique Super Bowl angles as well, including a ranking of “The Best Who Never Won” and “The Best Who Never Lost,” along with perspectives from players and fans. He covers the action, the heroes, the strategy, and the records from half a century of championship football. This celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of America’s premier sporting event is an essential addition to any football fan’s collection. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Sports Publishing imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in sports—books about baseball, pro football, college football, pro and college basketball, hockey, or soccer, we have a book about your sport or your team. Whether you are a New York Yankees fan or hail from Red Sox nation; whether you are a die-hard Green Bay Packers or Dallas Cowboys fan; whether you root for the Kentucky Wildcats, Louisville Cardinals, UCLA Bruins, or Kansas Jayhawks; whether you route for the Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, or Los Angeles Kings; we have a book for you. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to publishing books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked by other publishers and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
