Title: Stefan Fatsis discusses his new book about pro football, "A Few Seconds of Panic"
Description: Stefan Fatsis infiltrates a strikingly different subculture--pro football. After more than a year spent working out with a strength coach and polishing his craft with a guru-like kicking coach, Fatsis molded his fortyish body into one that could stand up—barely--to the rigors of NFL training. And, over three months in 2006, he became a Denver Bronco. He trained with the team and lived with the players. He was given a locker and uniforms emblazoned with #9. He was expected to perform all the drills and regimens required of other kickers. Not since George Plimpton’s stint as a Detroit Lion more than 40 years ago has a writer tunneled so deeply into the NFL.
