Mike Florio has *completely* re-written his long-forgotten football/sci-fi novel, *Quarterback of the Future*, and it is dropping chapter by chapter, free of charge, starting this Sunday, November 1st, to celebrate PFT’s 25th anniversary. This isn’t just a re-release, folks; he’s calling it a brand-new version of a story that, by his own admission, “frankly, was not very well written” the first time around. Seriously, he says the original “can’t be much worse.” Talk about a humble-yet-bold declaration!
Why This Rewrite Is a Must-Read Event
So, why go back to a book he practically disowned? Turns out, this wild football/sci-fi mashup actually helped kickstart his entire career, leading him into the sports media business we know him for today. Florio’s been putting in work since then, cranking out thousands of words daily, dropping eight or nine other novels, and even writing *Playmakers*. You gotta figure all that experience sharpened his pen, right? He’s confident this second try is way better, and honestly, with that kind of resume, you’d expect nothing less than a significant upgrade from the initial attempt. This isn’t just some old book; it’s a piece of his origin story, now getting the glow-up it apparently deserved all along.
How to Catch the Chapters, Chapter by Chapter
Get ready because the plan is to roll out one chapter per day. Florio’s even setting up a dedicated landing page for everything, so finding your daily dose of rewritten sci-fi football action should be a breeze. He’s hinting he might even speed things up if the response is wild, or if he’s feeling it, or if time just allows. So, if you’ve ever wondered about the roots of PFT or just love a good comeback story, this is it. Go check out the official introduction he is posting to get all the behind-the-scenes details on how this whole thing came to be. It promises to be a fun ride, and hey, it’s free. What’s not to love?
