Game Changers

I recently just finished Mike Lupicas "Game Changers" Although it had its good moments, to me it seemed like your typical football story. Maybe even go as far as your generic sports story to be completely blunt.
 Ben Mcbain is the main character, he has always wanted to the starting quarterback but there were two things standing in his way. 
        The first thing is the coaches son Shawn O'Brien. Shawn is practically given a spot on the team on a silver platter. Although he isn't bad, there are better people than him. Ben and Shawn play the same position tension build up between the two and one emerges as the starting quarterback.
         Now, the second cliche is that Ben is a rather small skinny guy who has to overcome the odds and yada yada. This side of the plot got boring time progressed. 
       All in all it wasn't a bad read. But it wasn't my favorite. 3/5 stars from me.
