That dizzying success, however, came at a high price. The seventy-hour work weeks, constant travel, and intense pressure--both from his players and their corporate partners--took Norton away from his family and ultimately led to divorce. At the same time, to protect his players and his career, he found himself making ethical and moral choices he would later regret. Soon, he realized he had made as many enemies as friends. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNow, in\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eRainmaker\u003c\/i\u003e, Norton offers \"the most amazing 'behind the curtain' view ever written about the world of sports management\" (Jim Nantz, CBS Sports).
