Ronde and Tiki Barber make a pretty good team

While shopping for children’s books with Linslee and Matt, I came across the book, “My Brother’s Side”, written by professional football players and twin brothers, Ronde and Tiki Barber. I’ll give you a moment to chuckle to yourself. Be thankful that you aren’t in a children’s book section trying to stop your chuckling. It doesn’t come off well to the parents.

I haven’t read the book, so I can’t provide much of a review. Let’s just assume the Barber brothers write as hilariously hyper-articulate as they speak. I did notice that the cover of the book mirrors reality: the players appear to be wearing the stripped down, de-commercialized uniforms of Ronde and Tikie Barber’s teams, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Giants, respectively. I wonder how they decided to have Tiki’s team dodging tackles and running untouched toward the endzone.

Anyway, I give the book 4 stars. I also present to you the world famous Ronde Barber/Tiki Barber Song, which was written in a time and place and by a person we will never know.
