McAuliffe's, Siege at Bastogne during WW2's crucial Battle of the Bulge and his 35+ year career defending America.Early in December 1944, Nazi gunfire shattered the silence of the huge Ardennes forest of Belgium causing widespread panic and eventual devastation. In a last attempt to win the war Hitler gambled it all and ten armored German divisions sporting the newly improved 'Tiger' Panzer tank, as well as 25 infantry divisions launched towards the Allied line which stretched 800 to 1000 miles from Holland in the North across to France in the South. Their mission was to fight their way through the American and British defenses, reduce their will to fight and reach the city and supplies of Antwpt. Adolf Hitler wanted to replicate his stunning triumphs of 1940, when he swept over the exact same region.

    The Golden Gladiator. . . .Myth? Urban legend? Hero? Antihero?Myth or urban legend? Not at all. This is the true story of senior citizen Michael Lynch and his inspirational journey back to the gridiron and glory. In his mid-sixties, he played on one of the best semi-pro football teams in America, and was coached by a former NFL veteran. After seeing his nephew play in a high school All-Star game on Long Island during the summer of 2012, Michael Lynch had an epiphany. He wanted to play football again. In the late 60s and early 70s, he had been a football star in high school, college, and in the semi-pro leagues on Long Island. Forty years later, he decided to turn back the clock and risk life and limb to play football again in one of the toughest semi-pro leagues in America: the Florida Football Alliance. This is a story of courage, redemption, tragedy, and love as Lynch played for four years in over fifty football games. He was a game captain, an Honorable Mention on the 2014 Florida Football Alliances All-Star team, and was honored at the leagues' banquet in his final year in 2018 for his inspiration and dedication to the game he loves. He played on two championship teams, in 2015 and 2018. Michael Lynch was inducted into the Guinness World Records in 2019 as the oldest American football player ever, and the oldest American football player to catch a touchdown pass-which he did at the age of sixty-eight. Hero or antihero? You decide, but first read Michael Lynch's epic tale, his Iliad and Odyssey of football journeys-the true story of . . . the Golden Gladiator.
