When he heard that Coach Dick Vermeil was holding open tryouts, he decided to give it a shot. Shocking himself and the coaches, he ran an explosive 40-yard-dash in just 4.5 seconds -- a world-class time -- and was offered a contract on the spot. When he joined the team, Papale became the oldest non-kicking rookie in NFL history, a fan favorite who played for four years and was named a team captain. \u003ci\u003eInvincible\u003c\/i\u003e is Vince Papale's story, and a tie-in to the Disney Pictures film of the same name starring Mark Wahlberg as Papale and Greg Kinnear as Vermeil. But more than just a tie-in, it tells Papale's story in his own words, covering subjects not included in the film. Like \u003ci\u003eRudy\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGlory Road\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eRookie\u003c\/i\u003e, it is the true story of an ordinary man who achieves an extraordinary goal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVince Papale\u003c\/strong\u003e is a former Philadelphia Eagles player whose life is the subject of a movie being released in the Fall.
