About this listen

Do you love great stories that motivate you to become a better version of yourself? Iconic stories that are now cherished classics e.g. Braveheart, The Shack, The Matrix, Seabiscuit, Rudy, American Underdog, etc., If those type of stories move you - then you will be inspired by listening to this memoir.

Brad Cousino's compelling memoir 'Unwanted, Unworthy, UNSHACKLED' tells how he endured 18 years of intense physical, emotional, and verbal traumatic abuse. To escape his brutal life of misery, he worked deep underground cleaning out the dank, dark sewers of the worst kind of putrid, rotting filth and sludge to pay for his first quarter of college. Brad desperately needed a scholarship, so he tried out as a 'non-scholarship walk-on' at Miami University hoping to earn a football scholarship (e.g. Rudy). Against over-whelming odds, he not only earned a scholarship, but became an All-American and defensive M.V.P. of the Mid-American Conference.

Despite his outstanding college success, the official NFL scouting report on Cousino was "too small, & too short" to play in the NFL. He beat the odds again and played in the NFL with the Cincinnati Bengals, Pittsburgh Steelers, and NY Giants.

Critic Reviews

"Brad's story is one of pure determination; and what that character trait can do for a person - and ultimately for an entire team! He NEVER GAVE UP, no matter the odds! All his many great plays were a direct result of his determination to be a "Difference Maker" for his team." - Dick Crum, Miami Head Coach 1974-77, M.A.C. Coach of the Year '74
