Third And Long,
By T Zac "Zac" (Zac) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Third and Long: Men's Playbook for Solving Marital/Relationship Problems and Building a Winning Team (Paperback)
Campbell provides a valuable message to all men: Participate in your relationship or risk loosing your mate (i.e. risk getting cut from your team). Modern marriage statistics are laughable and Campbell is a learned statistic. From who better to hear the warning signs? We still want to be men and Campbell's sports parallels allow us to examine our role in a relationship and yet still let out the odd "Tim the Toolman Taylor Ape grunt" for comfort. Campbell offers many insights into potential existing problems and provides ideas for their repair, as any good sports coach must do. Third and Long is an easy read and yet raises crutial red flag insights for men who are active (or non-active) in a relationship. T & L offers nuggets of knowledge gained from his true life experience of having to punt. Give it a read and be comfortable and secure in your position as a team player.

Third and Long is worth it if you want to keep your marriage,
By M. Sherrett - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Third and Long: Men's Playbook for Solving Marital/Relationship Problems and Building a Winning Team (Paperback)
I was hunting around looking for a men's relationship book (read my wife was pestering me into looking) and found Third and Long: Men's Playbook for Solving Marital/Relationship Problems and Building a Winning Team. One of the problems I've seen with my friends is that when their marriage gets in trouble, they don't know what to do or they do the wrong thing. What I need is a book that gives a range of tips and things to do that can help solve my relationship problems, whether they're serious or smaller. That's what Third and Long does.
It provides more than 50 tips and relationship skills that I could pick up on right away. More than just a tips book, it uses a football sports theme to guide you through understanding (scouting) where your marriage is at, where you are at, where she is at and also how to relate to what she needs. You'll definitely learn a lot of things you didn't know. What I particularly liked is that it's readable, written in a football playbook style that can be read in a night, allowing you to implement tips almost immediately. It provides a plan framework to start taking action to improve your marriage or help make a good relationship much better. Another bonus besides being that Third and Long is not long is that it gets to the point. It looks at tools for you to address your problems and not just get on the endless examination of emotions. I think that's a great feature because who really has time to read long-winded relationship books when the situation is "third and long" or even "fourth and desperate." If you think you, or a friend or man in your family, needs a book like this, then you should definitely read it. Third and Long will help you better manage your relationship. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:

Men: Read this book!,
By R. D. Owen - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Third and Long: Men's Playbook for Solving Marital/Relationship Problems and Building a Winning Team (Paperback)
Men, if you can read only one relationship book, let this be the one. Third and Long provides you with the information you need to be build a successful relationship with the woman in your life. While primarily addressing married men, the book will also be helpful for single men who want to understand how women think and feel. Author Steve Campbell demystifies women, explaining what they want from their men and why. Campbell acknowledges that women are more skilled at relationships and he seeks to help men catch up in that area. I'm a woman and I found the section on the five stages of a marital breakup range completely true. It's uncanny how well Campbell captures the different ways men and women identify the stages and the different emphasis we place on each one. Campbell says he hopes the book will help married men recognize the red flags in their relationships - so they won't be caught completely off-guard, as so many men are when their marriage collapses. He clearly shows how paying more attention to what's going on in a relationship can pay off - and, from personal experience, he lets men know what happens if they continue on in their usual way, blithely unaware of the unhappiness brewing and the resulting meltdown. This book is accessible to just about anyone - the language is clear, the tone candid and kind, but also forthright. And, men, pay attention to the sections that you may think make little difference: the ones on grooming and cleanliness. Campbell is right on in his assessment that looking good - respectably good, not GQ good - will be a definite plus for your relationship. (He somehow managed to pick up on one small thing that's a huge turn-off for women: nose hair. Bravo!) This book is a champion in the world of self-help books. Get it, read it, live it.

Campbell offers many insights into potential existing problems and ideas for their repair, as any sports coach worth his weight must do.
