Jerome Bettis to Release Book in September

I seriously cannot wait for this. Jerome Bettis spent the season working on a book - it's going to be called Driving Home: My Unforgettable Super Bowl Run. It takes place from the beginning of training camp through the Super Bowl in Detroit. It would have been cool to see it span his entire career, but this book is going to be awesome anyway. And I'd rather see a book about the run for the fifth ring from someone on the team than a reporter or something. There have been books released already, but all they are are collections of articles from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette and other places. Basically stuff I've already read. Jerome's book is going to be awesome, because it's a bit of a personal thing. First-hand, and not some reporter somewhere.

There's another book that's coming out sooner. Called Men of Steel, and written by Jim Wexell. Have no idea what part of Steelers history it's about, but I'm getting it anyway. Comes out August 1, from what I've heard. A lot of people can't stand Wexell, but I personally don't care. I own and have read his book Tales From Behind The Steel Curtain. I loved it. So I've got high hopes for this one, too.
