  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.

Green at Cardinals practice today looked like the 2015 version,” Riddick tweeted. “He was on fire. Arizona has the potential to have top-five wide receiver group with DHop, AJ, Rondale Moore, and Christian Kirk.” The Cardinals have lots of depth now at QB: Kyler Murray saw his first snaps this preseason, but the wide receiver position with the additions for Green it was evident Kliff Kingsbury sees little value in giving and Moore this offseason. his superstar quarterback an extended preseason look. He played nine snaps against the Chiefs before giving TE: The tight end position remains one of the big way to Colt McCoy and Chris Streveler. Those nine question marks.

  • The Ice Bowl: the Cold Truth About Football's Most Unforgettable Game
    SPORTS | FOOTBALL $16.95 GRUVER An insightful, bone-chilling replay of pro football’s greatest game. “ ” The Ice Bowl —Gordon Forbes, pro football editor, USA Today It was so cold... THE DAY OF THE ICE BOWL GAME WAS SO COLD, the referees’ whistles wouldn’t work; so cold, the reporters’ coffee froze in the press booth; so cold, fans built small fires in the concrete and metal stands; so cold, TV cables froze and photographers didn’t dare touch the metal of their equipment; so cold, the game was as much about survival as it was Most Unforgettable Game About Football’s The Cold Truth about skill and strategy. ON NEW YEAR’S EVE, 1967, the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers met for a classic NFL championship game, played on a frozen field in sub-zero weather. The “Ice Bowl” challenged every skill of these two great teams. Here’s the whole story, based on dozens of interviews with people who were there—on the field and off—told by author Ed Gruver with passion, suspense, wit, and accuracy. The Ice Bowl also details the history of two legendary coaches, Tom Landry and Vince Lombardi, and the philosophies that made them the fiercest of football rivals. Here, too, are the players’ stories of endurance, drive, and strategy. Gruver puts the reader on the field in a game that ended with a play that surprised even those who executed it. Includes diagrams, photos, game and season statistics, and complete Ice Bowl play-by-play Cheers for The Ice Bowl A hundred myths and misconceptions about the Ice Bowl have been answered.

  • 1 Keynote Address by Georgia Tech President G. Wayne
    KEYNOTE ADDRESS BY GEORGIA TECH PRESIDENT G. WAYNE CLOUGH Bobby Dodd Institute Breakfast, 2/20/03 It is very exciting for Georgia Tech to be a part of the Bobby Dodd Industries’ 2003 Breakfast with Champions. We join with you in saluting Tom Graf for his many years of advocacy on behalf of Atlanta’s disabled citizens. And I want to recognize and thank Wes Durham and the Georgia Tech pep band for getting us into the spirit of this special occasion. Georgia Tech and BDI share the legacy of a champion named Bobby Dodd. We called him the “Grey Fox,” and he spent his entire coaching career at Georgia Tech. He was an outstanding mentor to young people because he believed in them. He was quick to praise their accomplishments, and he knew exactly what to say to restore their self-confidence after they’d made a mistake. He wanted each one of his players to be their personal best, whether on the field or in the classroom, and he gave them the help and support they needed to succeed. Bobby Dodd signed on with Georgia Tech as a backfield coach on the day after Christmas in 1930, and in 1945 he became head coach. His 22 years as head coach were the golden era of Georgia Tech football. His 1952 team won the national championship, and between 1952 and 1956 he achieved a national record that still stands today of six consecutive appearances in the most prestigious bowl games of the day, including the Sugar Bowl, the Orange Bowl and the Cotton Bowl.
