"My heartfelt thanks for creating American Football Monthly, I have found no other football magazine as comprehensive. It is simply the finest coaches magazine I have seen, and I've been looking intensely for the past year. From youth football to the professional ranks, coaches and players alike can gain valuable insight and knowledge about the wonderful American icon from the pages of American Football Monthly. I will become a complete coach, a skilled technician and a well-rounded student of the game because of the "insider's perspective" orientation of this fine chronicle. It has already become a significant part of my football library. Anyone who desires to improve as a coach, as a player or as a student of the game would be wise and well served to read the American Football Monthly."
