Famed sports author Jeff Pearlman has written nine books that have appeared on The New York Times’ best seller list, including Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley, and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty of the 1980s, which HBO’s hit series Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty is based on.
Pearlman’s most recent work is something that Las Vegas Raiders fans will surely be interested in, The Last Folk Hero: The Life and Myth of Bo Jackson.
Jackson racked up nearly 2,800 rushing yards and 16 rushing touchdowns in four seasons for the Silver and Black before a hip injury cut his NFL career short.
