  • The Following Players Comprise the 1975 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1975 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1975 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.

  • If One Play Can Sum up a Football Career, Then a Single Punt Return Did So for Jimmy Allen
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 26, No. 5 (2004) SPIDERMAN The Jimmy Allen Story By John Bennett If one play can sum up a football career, then a single punt return did so for Jimmy Allen. In a November 1973 rout of California, Allen recklessly picked up a punt in the end zone and ran 101 yards for a touchdown. Thirty years later, this is still a UCLA record and although it has been matched, it is unlikely to ever be broken. Today his trophies and awards, along with a pair of Super Bowl rings, lie tucked away in storage, ignored and forgotten. Their owner now has drifted far away from his days of football glory, to a life filled with hardship and isolation. Yet the present makes only part of a compelling story of the man who called himself “The Spiderman.” Jim Allen was born in Clearwater, FL on March 6, 1952. In his early teens, he moved to Los Angeles to live with his aunt and uncle. Jim grew up big for his age, with unusually long arms. These physical traits made him an exceptional athlete, especially in swimming. During his days at Los Angeles City High School, Allen shattered all city records in several swimming events and in 1972, he even tried out for the Olympic team. The presence of Mark Spitz unfortunately put an end to his Olympic dreams, but Allen had other athletic options. He played both offense and defense for his high school football team and was All-City his senior year. He also found time to meet his future wife Cora Scott.

  • Vol. 18, No. 1 (1996)
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 1 (1996) THE TEN BEST SUPER BOWLS By Bob Carroll Courtesy of Total Sports It's an article of faith among the jaded that the least interesting football game all season is the Super Bowl. Small wonder. The whole season has pointed toward this single meeting. By kickoff, enough hype has been expended to elect three Presidents, introduce your state's latest Lotto game, and launch a new version of Windows. That the game's actual blocking, tackling, and kicking will prove a letdown is as likely as Liz's next marriage not being her last. The jaded can cite a goodly number of blow-outs as evidence that the Roman-numeraled game sucks, but blow-outs have occurred in championship games since long before anyone thought of modifying Bowl with the S-word. That 73-0 lesson the Bears taught the Redskins in 1940 -- still the most one-sided NFL score ever -- was for the championship. In reality, it's probably surprising that so many Super Bowls have been worth watching. How many? Well, certainly one out of three. And with Number XXX in the till, that means at least ten. Of course, "worth watching" can mean different things to different football afficionados. There are Bears fans who loved every last second of XX when the Bruins dismantled the Pitiful Pats 46-10. In Dallas, they were still tuned in to XXVII long after most of us had started surfing USA and Nick at Night for a good re- run. But by Supe Time, most of us have seen our favorite team eliminated in a playoff (or by Week Six if you favor the Jets).
