Hi Tony,
As you know, we were school mates at White Oaks Secondary School in Oakville. Not close friends but I certainly was a distant fan. Your perseverance and persistance to achieve was greater than people appreciated. You are very brave to open your story to the entire world to perhaps shed light on your life journey. Perhaps the demons are being pur to rest and the remaining chapters of your life will indeed run smoothly. I look forward to reading more about the life of Tony Mandarich after White Oaks High School and how you are doing.

Best of Luck with your book. I hope it does well and I also hope you are able to reach out to people with your story.
Hi Tony-
I was a big fan of yours when I played offensive line in college a couple of years after you did. Even got myself a couple of Powerhouse Gym, East Lansing, MI t-shirts. It was great to see an o-lineman get as much attention as you did.
Here’s the thing. I knew a few of your teammates and opponents in the Big Ten, and it was fairly obvious to them of your ‘use’. So these revelations are no big surprise. What was never in question was your work ethic and devotion to the game at MSU. But what I hope your book covers in some detail is your comeback: “the fall”, your later acceptance of your own responsibility in your professional setbacks, and rising again to play in the NFL. It would have been easy to stay down. But you didn’t. Surely your days in Green Bay would have impressed upon you the old Lombardi quote which emphasizes that greatness is not about never failing, never falling, but in rising again after you fall.
Best of luck with the book.
Tony
Best of luck to you and I’m very happy that you have come to grips and that you are inspiring others.
God Bless
If the rest of the book is as good as Chapter 10, this ought to be a great one.
Like you, I was a functioning addict…I completed a 20 yr military career while drinking myself into oblivion for the first 15yrs of it.
It will be interesting to read your book to see if there were similarities in how we managed to try to cover up our problems.
I wish you continued good health and clean time.
