"Dickerson scores points in his takedown of a system, then and now, that chews players up and spits them out." --Kirkus, "There was no runner quite like Eric, and, it turns out, there's no author like him either. His life story has page after page of 'wow!' moments -- and he's one of the best storytellers I've ever been around. Eric looked effortless as a runner, gliding through the defense. When I read his book I got the same feeling: The pages seemed to turn themselves. His story, from his account, reflects where we are today as a society: Divided, uncomfortable. People have to do a self-awareness check to determine who they are and where they stand on fundamental principles. Eric's story is his experience -- people have to reckon with it, and nobody can deny it until they walk or run a mile in his shoes." -- Emmitt Smith "Dickerson scores points in his takedown of a system, then and now, that chews players up and spits them out." -- Kirkus "Eric Dickerson has never shied away from telling the truth: About life in the NFL, about being a Black celebrity, about racism. You might not like what he's saying, but you know it's true. Straight drink, no chaser." --Lawrence Taylor "Eric was one of the most graceful running backs ever to play in the NFL. It's refreshing to know that as a writer and a friend, his integrity and sense of humor equals or surpasses that grace!" --Clyde Drexler "Honestly, I hated watching Eric run -- maybe that's because he was a Ram and I was a 49er. But seriously, his style and grace were unique, and his upright running style, while criticized by many was damn fun to watch. Now that we're friends, I can finally stomach watching old footage of him tearing us apart. Watch My Smoke is a great read. It's the book football fans deserve about one of history's greatest runners, and more importantly, my friend." --Joe Montana "Eric is a lot like me: He's straight to the point and he tells you what he thinks, even if it's something you don't want to hear. We played in different eras but after meeting Eric I realized the similarities in our upbringings. I appreciate his friendship along with his straightforward and downhill approach with this book -- which was the same approach as when he had the ball in his hands. Want to know the real Eric Dickerson? Read Watch My Smoke." --Terrell Owens "In all the years I have known Eric Dickerson as a friend, and as an incredible Hall of Fame Football Player. I was stunned as he was revealing the level of racism that he encountered early in his life and how he rose above those circumstances. Eric sharing is the strength we need so our world can be changed going forward. Think about it, Eric's overcome every obstacle and still our country is affected by racism. My friend, I love you and I think you for sharing your innermost thoughts, Watch My Smoke is courageous." --Nancy Lieberman "As a newspaper columnist in Dallas, I spent a lot of time around Eric Dickerson's SMU teams and always considered him a mysterious figure. Now, reading Watch My Smoke, I realize he was a shy kid from small-town Sealy, Texas wary of the mostly white media and haunted by the racism he experienced throughout his career. Now he spills it all in a book that reads nearly as fast as he was. Prepare for a jaw-dropper every other page." --Skip Bayless "As a running back, Eric Dickerson never tiptoed or showed any fear. As an author, he's the exact same way: Fearless, and tough enough to take on any issue. He's been one of my best friends since 1983, so I know that Eric will always tell you the truth." --Rickey Jackson, "Eric Dickerson has never shied away from telling the truth: About life in the NFL, about being a Black celebrity, about racism.
