Educating Dexter
I just bought a copy of Dexter Manley's book "Educating Dexter" really cheap off of Ebay. Has anyone read this book?

Re: Educating Dexter
It says it was published in 1992, I had never heard of it until i came across it on Ebay. I thought I'd give it a try. Heres another copy being auctioned off.

Re: Educating Dexter
I read this book last year (I bought it off Ebay as well) - it was a pretty interesting book. Talked a lot about his trouble with drugs and fitting in with his teammates, it was a very good read for redskin fans.

Re: Educating Dexter
I remember the constant ribbing I would take being a Redskin fan because of Manley's inability to read. I did not know he had a book, sounds like a good read, maybe some positivity and good thoughts.

Re: Educating Dexter
Love Dexter.....was the first player I remember watching when I was little. I even dressed up as him for halloween when I was 6 w/ my uncle's jersey and authentic skins helmet. The book is pretty interesting, it's amazing how OK State treats or at least treated star athletes so they could see the field. I never finished the book but check out the copy of his report card- some interesting classes.
