“A wry, witty look at life with the Dallas Cowboys during the heyday of Tom Landry and Roger Staubach, The Crunch shows the real life that makes legends and lacerates the Cowboys mechanistic corporate image, revealing a world that is both more and less than we expect, yet funnier than we could image.” —Peter Gent, author of North Dallas Forty

“More characters than War and Peace. More laughs than Laugh-In. . . . A pro football classic!” —Frank Luksa, The Dallas Morning News

Pat Toomay played ten years in the NFL. He is the author of two books about pro football: The Crunch, an irreverent look at the Dallas Cowboys during the Tom Landry–era, and the novel, On Any Given Sunday. He has written for the New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, the Nashville Tennessean, Rolling Stone, GQ, ESPNs Page 2 and Salon.com, among other venues. His ESPN columns broke readership records. An article about his involvement in Oliver Stone’s football film was included in Houghton Mifflin’s Best American Sportswriting 2000 and has been added as postscript to the eBook edition of On Any Given Sunday. Toomay lives and writes in Albuquerque, NM.
