About this ebook

Andrew Goldstein delved into the world of football at age five and, through a mistake that is equal parts painful and wonderful, somehow ended up rooting for the New York Jets. Thirteen years later, he decided to write a book about it. The uplifting, disheartening, wonderful, awful, hilarious, and generally crazy experiences in the middle? Theyre all in the pages of this book. Growing Up Green is an attempt to shed a little bit of light on what it means to be a sports fan, and how the fan experience shapes us throughout our lives. This story will be told not through the lens of an expert, but from the perspective of a regular football fanatic who bleeds green and white. Along the way, youll either discover or re-discover the inner workings of a sports fans mind, and have a heck of a good time doing it. If youre a diehard, a casual fan, have the slightest bit of curiosity in what it means to be a fan, or are Andrew Goldsteins immediate friends and family, then this book is for you.

About the author

Andrew Goldstein is a high school senior (soon to be college Freshman) that has already written one book and decided it would be a good idea to write another one on top of doing college stuff. He has successfully published two books before the age of eighteen, worked for SIKIDS, co-hosted two Internet radio shows, and remained a lifelong Jets fan. (Which, by the way, was by far the most difficult to achieve out of the four above.) Andrew will reside in New Jersey for a couple more months until moving to an as-of-yet unknown state for college. While most people save weekend homework for Sunday nights, he insists on doing it before then because he considers football Sundays to be his “office hours.” If that doesn’t give you some idea of who Andrew Goldstein is, then there’s really not a whole lot that will.
