College football success does not always portend big business victories. Yet placekicker Stu Crum rode a boyhood ambition to the boardrooms of the world’s biggest corporations and private equity firms.

In Aim for the Uprights, Crum shares telling episodes of a life shaped by personal convictions, his burgeoning faith, and his unique partnership with the love of his life, his wife, Mia.

In three sections—“Game On,” “Game Changer,” and “Late Game Score”—the author also reveals his simple yet profound playbook that is appropriate for readers of all backgrounds, both professional and cultural.

“Game On” highlights the early stages of Crum’s development as an affable but determined athlete who admits some of his big dreams were improbable—until they came true. Herein, he introduces a minicamp for rookies, men and women, who have not yet experienced the benefits of intentional living.

“Game Changer” finds Crum fighting the adversity of a crushing heartbreak that tested his faith and physical injuries that haunted his career in the NFL and USFL. After his business acumen grew Down Under, he expanded his leadership reach to Central and South America, where bodyguards and tropical family vacations became an acquired taste. But when Mia was threatened with a terminal illness, love of family took on a luster and depth money can’t buy.

Fortunately, for Crum, life begins at 60 in “Late Game Score,” where he takes a leap from corporate rewards to private equity risks that can, and do, lead to a “life-changing” event. Not the end of his remarkable story.

Imagine no more wars: so far at least 18 wars have occurred that ended with the lost of our husbands, brothers, fathers, nephews, and other family members died in the name of ‘power to control.’
Imagine no more need for politicians: we have had numerous politicians say they will help us commoners; later to find that they are or become just as corrupt as their opponents.
Imagine that all of the murderers and rapists were sent to a prison island 4000 miles from citizens.
Imagine a treaty proposal that would unite all 7 continents.

Rosalia Scalia’s UNDER THE RADAR, her second short story collection, offers a poignant look at characters grappling with grief and loss in various forms. Each story reveals the raw emotions—anger, numbness, confusion—that accompany their journeys, as they navigate a world seemingly oblivious to their pain. In the title story, set in the 1970s, we follow Hope and Kenny, a young couple whose plans to marry are shattered when Kenny reveals he’s gay. “All the Small Joys” explores the clash between two sisters debating whether their mother should be buried with a mink stole or one sister’s dog’s ashes. In “Static Electricity,” adult twins must confront the devastating loss of their mother, an art teacher killed in a school shooting. “Butterfly Moments” focuses on Pearl, who grieves the death of her Marine son, killed by friendly fire, while harboring resentment toward his fiancée, who knew parts of his life Pearl never did. Throughout the collection, Scalia masterfully portrays the characters’ struggle to find resilience in the face of overwhelming loss.
