LaDainian Tomlinson carries the Jets

LaDainian Tomlinson shined in yesterday's game against the Patriots at the New Meadowlands Stadium. Being 31 years old, some say LT is too old, washed up, losing his ability etc., but he really proved those people wrong in yesterday's game by rushing for 76 yards on 11 carries.

To read more about his performance yesterday, click here.

While Enslow's book, LaDainian Tomlinson: All-Pro On and Off the Field doesn't include information on his new season with the Jets, it still has some great information about what a terrific athlete and humanitarian LT is. This book is also available in library bound editions, and great for reluctant readers.
