Gerry Sandusky is Tom's guest this morning. He is the Sports Director at WBAL Television, and the play-by-play announcer for the Baltimore Ravens on the Ravens Radio Network. Earlier this year, he published a poignant and moving memoir of growing up as one of five children of John Sandusky, who played for the Cleveland Browns and Green Bay Packers, and who went on to a long coaching career with the Baltimore Colts, the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Miami Dolphins.
The memoir is called Forgotten Sundays: A Son’s Story of Life, Loss and Love from the Sidelines of the NFL. Gerry’s memoir is a touching tribute to his Dad, and a compelling chronicle of how a family coped with the pressures and perks of professional football.
