Sidney Crosby est prêt à raconter son histoire. L'un des plus grands joueurs de la LNH de tous les temps nous ramène en 2005-2006 pour revivre sa saison recrue avec les Penguins de Pittsburgh. Le jeune prodige canadien qu’on surnommait « le prochain Gretzky » devient alors un joueur professionnel de 18 ans qui doit composer avec une équipe en difficulté.

Sidney Crosby is ready to tell his story in his own words. As one of the greatest NHL players of all time, he reflects on his 2005-06 rookie season with the Pittsburgh Penguins. From a Canadian phenom dubbed “the next Gretzky” to an 18-year-old carrying the burden of a struggling franchise, he talks candidly about the intense pressure he was under, the surreal experience of lacing up alongside his childhood idol Mario Lemieux and the truth about his rivalry with Alex Ovechkin.

Per il suo approccio al gioco e al lavoro di squadra, per il suo rigore e le sue idee innovative in materia di dieta e di benessere, Arsène Wenger, soprannominato "Il Professore", ha lasciato il segno nel mondo del calcio, trasformando il mestiere di allenatore in pura arte. In questo libro decide di raccontarsi per la prima volta in assoluto. Come ha fatto il bambino di Duttlenheim, un piccolo paesino in Alsazia, che non sembrava affatto destinato al successo, a entrare nella leggenda?

Un bambino selvatico e sgraziato, che preferisce la solitudine e l'amicizia degli animali a quella dei coetanei. Un rapporto privilegiato con il nonno, suo maestro e complice, e un profondo legame con il bosco, unico luogo di libertà e armonia. Una "vita spericolata" fin dall'infanzia e dall'adolescenza, sempre alla spasmodica ricerca di un confine da superare, di una regola da infrangere. Questo è Vanni, e questo il suo grande sogno: saltare l'ostacolo, colmare il vuoto insopportabile che è dentro ognuno di noi.

Roberto «Bob» Bissonnette, le marchand de bonheur. Décédé à l’âge de 35 ans dans un accident d’hélicoptère, le hockeyeur devenu vedette du rock a certes connu une vie trop courte, mais n’en a assurément gaspillé aucune seconde. La pédale au plancher, donnant son 110 % sur la glace, sur scène ou même autour d’un feu de camp, il aura été l’incarnation même de la maxime carpe diem, «saisir le jour».

Picture a man, he’s tall, not excessively so, yet as wide as he is high. This man is a spitting and growling street brawler; a tank full of ready-to-blow, muscle-fuelled aggression. Imagine, if you will, the comic-book style Bulldog of Great British stamp. Well, there you have him! The prototypical face taken from the terraces of an ’80s football fan’s rolled-up newspaper cosh; a poster-boy of malevolence left over from Thatcher’s post-punk Britain.

“Holy Dirty Dora!” Hector “Toe” Blake would bark while pacing behind the Montreal Canadiens bench, hands thrust into his pockets, jawing at chewing gum before intentionally banging his forehead into the glass that separates players and fans.

It was soccer that saved him from a life on the street.

In 1968, perhaps the finest US Olympic men’s track-and-field team ever stirred the world in unprecedented ways, among them the victory stand black rights protest by Tommie Smith and John Carlos in Mexico City. But in competition no single athlete mirrored the free-thinking 1960s better than Dick Fosbury, a failed prep high jumper who invented an offbeat style that ultimately won him a gold medal and revolutionized the event. No jumpers today use any other style than his.
