08:31 AM ET 02.11 | The New York Giants' Super Bowl win last Sunday was one for the ages -- and wide receiver Victor Cruz appears to be the first who will write about it. The salsa-dancing standout player, who is repped by IMG for non-play-related activities, is said to be closing in on a book deal. Scott Waxman at the Waxman Literary Agency is handling the book proposal in conjunction with IMG. "He's meeting with publishers next week," said an IMG insider. Waxman did not return calls.

"Scott Waxman at the Waxman Literary Agency...."

Sounds like one of those deals where his office is also his main transportation.

If Burress ever writes a book will he use his Pen Name?

'appears to be the first who will write about it'...though do not be surprised if another player self-publishes within a month.

WOW, he can dance and write!

Good for him to capitalize on this. Milk it because your NFL career could be over with any snap. I jut wonder how much he'll actually write compared to the ghost writers many celebrities use?

The title of the book; "I dance like a phagg"

What's the title? Just Throw Me My Damn Money?

February 11, 2012  11:24 AM ET

I didn't know he could read, let alone write

February 11, 2012  11:29 AM ET

It's a paint-by-numbers book. In spanish.

It'll be right next to R.A. Dickey's book.

I find it hard to believe that R.A. Dickey that he got a book deal.

Starting to jot notes for my own book - after years of working and coaching kiddie softball - H.S. Ace finds success in the Senior League :-)
