This is an emotional journey of a man trying to find his place and find what drives him. Tim Green grew up with a drive to overachieve and be the best. He long since knew he had been adopted and, as with other adopted children, wondered where he came from and why he was given up. All during his NFL career, he searched out those who could help and came within a week of losing the abiity to find the information he desperately needed. Tim also talks about his brother Kyle, who was also adopted, however leaves out his sister, whom I'm guessing was not adopted. In an indirect way, Tim addresses the nature vs. nuture arguement. He and his brother were each adopted into the same family and couldn't be more different. Tim is driven to achieve while Kyle spends his life searching for direction and someplace to fit in.
