More Than a Game begs the question: can the NFL withstand another scandal?With Super Bowl XLIX to be played February 1, 2015, two NFL teams appear predestined to make the journey to Glendale, Arizona. The Atlantic City Rollers (AFC) and the Omaha Stampeders (NFC) are fictitious teams yet, in actuality, current teams in the author’s mind.With his job in jeopardy, Rollers’ Defensive Coordinator, Jamie Longoria, believes he can survive the post-season termination by learning the plays of Mike Jacobs, Head Coach of the Omaha Stampeders. Mike, perhaps the best NFL head coach in the league, is nobody’s fool, at least until Longoria’s corruptive plans trickle down to Sam Sheldon and Andrew Baxter, Rollers’ enthusiasts. While 'Spygate' and 'Bountygate' will always be recalled as NFL scandals, Jenna Huddy, a product of foster homes until emancipated at eighteen, is sent to Omaha where she unknowingly perpetrates the next disgrace known as 'GotPlaysgate.'More Than a Game takes place from November, 2014 through Super Bowl Sunday 2015. Omaha, Atlantic City and Two Harbors, Minnesota form the background settings for this novel.
