ONE MOMENT CHANGES EVERYTHING: The All-America Tragedy of Don Rogers (Sean D. Harvey) \| Media & Announcers

		ONE MOMENT CHANGES EVERYTHING: The All-America Tragedy of Don Rogers (Sean D. Harvey) Description: DESCRIPTION Don Rogers was a three-sport phenomenon who energized a forgotten corner of the world (North Sacramento). He could run, jump and tackle better than anyone in California. A role model to children, he became both an honor student and a consensus All- American football player for UCLA, where he dominated two Rose Bowls and was a favorite of fans and sportswriters alike. Rogers went on to become a first-round draft pick of the Cleveland Browns and was voted rookie of the year in 1984. Then it fell apart. Just one week after the overdose death of basketball star Len Bias, and only one day before his marriage to his college sweetheart, while in the upstairs bedroom of his motherÌs home Rogers made the incomprehensible decision to use cocaine, and died just hours later. This All-American story is about a good man whose life transcended sports, and whose death continues to spur important debate about burden, love, addiction, responsibility, and what constitutes happiness in the material world. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sean Harvey is a freelance writer and editor who battled Sacramento legends and future NFL stars Don and Reggie Rogers on the courts and fields of their rival high schools, before going on to coach their sister, Jackie, in summer basketball tournaments around Sacramento. Later, while Don and Reggie became college stars elsewhere on the West Coast, Harvey became a two-year varsity letterman wide receiver at San Jose State University. He spent five years working in New York, primarily as a manager for Authors and Artists Group, a Manhattan-based literary agency. Harvey resides in Berkeley, CA.. 2007 * 256 pp * b/w photos throughout 6 x 9 hardcover Approximate Shipping Time: Please allow 7-10 business days for delivery of this item.
