On our first official Pod of Fame Book Club episode, Jim welcomes longtime NFL writer and Football Hall of Fame voter Gary Myers to discuss his latest book, “Once a Giant: A Story of Victory, Tragedy, and Life After Football.” Jim and Gary first cover the main themes of the book that highlights the 1986 New York Giants and the lives of the players since retiring from the NFL (4:49). Then, they debate whether Lawrence Taylor is the greatest player in NFL history, if Phil Simms and Carl Banks belong in the Hall of Fame, where the 1986 Giants rank among the best teams of the 1980s, and much more (21:05).
