Million-Dollar Throw (2009) - Plot & Excerpts

Million Dollar Throw by Mike Lupica is a very good book. The book related to me because I play football like Nate but he played QB and i'm a wide receiver. But I really liked how mike lupica kept is still reading by adding some misfortunes to his family and best friend and us "the readers" wanted to keep on reading because we wanted to find out if Nate could help out his family by succesfully throwing a ball from the 30 yard line. The best part of the book is how Mike Lupica kept adding flashbacks into the story be restating how his family really needs the money and how his dad lost his job. The deeper meaning of the text is that Mike Lupica wanted us to believe that staying calm during big time decisions is key to success. I recomend this book to readers who really enjoy Mike Lupicas stories and who like football books. Great book! Nate Brodie is nicknamed “Brady” because of his golden arm and is Tom Brady’s biggest fan. One day he goes to buy a special autographed ball by Tom Brady and enters a contest where he win the chance to throw a pass through a target for one million dollars at halftime of the New England Patriots thanksgiving game. Nate has personal problems to deal with his dad lost his job, they are going to lose their home and his best friend Abby is going blind and was going to go to Perkins when she went totally blind and Nate hated that idea. Then his arm goes haywire during one of his games and it does for 3 games and he eventually get benched at quarterback and plays wide receiver. But he gets his old job back and win the 8th grade championship on a game winning. On the day of his throw he gets to meet Tom Brady and he gives him a prep talk right before he does the throw for a million dollars. He nails the throw and he uses some of his money to fix Abby eyes so she doesn’t go blind and she get to stay at her original school and his family uses the rest to keep their house and his dad gets a new job. Everything worked out perfectly.
