"This book's going to raise a howl," promises Deacon Jones. "You
wait and see!" From a small rural town in Florida to the NFL Hall
of Fame, this is the story of Deacon's rise to the top of the heap
in the National Football League. "Headslap" refers to the lightning
move popularized by Jones in the early days of the game, when a
player could rattle the cage (or at least the helmet) of a blocker
by belting him alongside the head. And Deacon did this better than
anyone in the game. They weren't jabs; they were full left hooks
and right crosses. So devastating was this move that the League
outlawed it.More than a simple sports story, Headslap brings to
full view the NFL during the 1960s and 1970s - a time of incredible
social upheaval and change in the United States. Deacon's story
reveals the difficulties that all black players confronted trying
to break into the NFL.
