  • Collecting Lombardi's Dominating Packers
    Collecting Lombardi’s Dominating Packers BY DAVID LEE ince Lombardi called Lambeau Field his “pride and joy.” Specifically, the ground itself—the grass and the dirt. V He loved that field because it was his. He controlled everything that happened there. It was the home where Lombardi built one of the greatest sports dynasties of all-time. Fittingly, Lambeau Field was the setting for the 1967 NFL Champion- ship, famously dubbed “The Ice Bowl” before the game even started. Tem- peratures plummeting to 12 degrees below zero blasted Lombardi’s field. Despite his best efforts using an elaborate underground heating system to keep it from freezing, the field provided the perfect rock-hard setting to cap Green Bay’s decade of dominance—a franchise that bullied the NFL for nine seasons. The messy game came down to a goal line play of inches with 16 seconds left, the Packers trailing the Cowboys 17-14. Running backs were slipping on the ice, and time was running out. So, quarterback Bart Starr called his last timeout, and ran to the sideline to tell Lombardi he wanted to run it in himself. It was a risky all-in gamble on third down. “Well then run it, and let’s get the hell out of here,” Starr said Lom- bardi told him. The famous lunge into the endzone gave the Packers their third-straight NFL title (their fifth in the decade) and a second-straight trip to the Super Bowl to face the AFL’s best. It was the end of Lombardi’s historic run as Green Bay’s coach.

    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.

  • 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.

  • College All-Star Football Classic, August 2, 1963 • All-Stars 20, Green Bay 17
    College All-Star Football Classic, August 2, 1963 • All-Stars 20, Green Bay 17 This moment in pro football history has always captured my imagination. It was the last time the college underdogs ever defeated the pro champs in the long and storied history of the College All-Star Football Classic, previously known as the Chicago Charities College All-Star Game, a series which came to an abrupt end in 1976. As a kid, I remember eagerly awaiting this game, as it signaled the beginning of another pro football season—which somewhat offset the bittersweet knowledge that another summer vacation was quickly coming to an end. Alas, as the era of “big money” pro sports set in, the college all star game quietly became a quaint relic of a more innocent sporting past. Little by little, both the college stars and the teams which had shelled out guaranteed contracts to them began to have second thoughts about participation in an exhibition game in which an injury could slow or even terminate a player’s career development. The 1976 game was played in a torrential downpour, halted in the third quarter with Pittsburgh leading 24-0, and the game—and, indeed, the series—was never resumed. But on that sultry August evening in 1963, with a crowd of 65,000 packing the stands, the idea of athletes putting financial considerations ahead of “the game” wasn’t on anyone’s minds. Those who were in the stands or watching on televiosn were treated to one of the more memorable upsets in football history, as the “college Joes” knocked off the “football pros,” 20-17.

  • The Packer Fullbacks
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 21, No. 6 (1999) THE PACKER FULLBACKS By Stan Grosshandler To the long time NFL fan, the word fullback conjures up the picture of a powerfully built man crashing into the line head down and knees up. On defense he backed up the line like a stone wall. The name Bronko Nagurski immediately comes to mind as the prototype fullback. The term fullback is about to go the way of the terms as end, blocking back, halfback, and wingback. The usual NFL fullback today is the up man in a two man backfield used as a blocker and occasional pass receiver. The Green Bay Packers have had their share of “real fullbacks”. Their first one of note was Bo Molenda, who played a total of 13 years in the NFL. He started with the Packers in 1928, and then was a member of the three straight championship teams of ‘29,'30, and ‘31. In the Lambeau system the FB stood beside and to the right of the LH or tailback in the Notre Dame box. In a position to receive the ball directly from the center he had to be able to run wide, plunge, spin and hand off, plus pass and receive. Ideal for this job was Clarke Hinkle, who joined the team in 1932 out of Bucknell. Clarke did it all, run, pass, receive, kick both extra points and field goals, and backed up the line. He topped the league in scoring in 1938 (58 points) and led twice in field goals. Hinkle is now in both the Professional and College Halls of Fame.

    Where Samplers Rule Just 15 minutes from the Airport at the SE CORNER OF DOBSON & GUADALUPE 1837 W. Guadalupe Rd, Suite 109 Mesa, AZ 85202 TELEPHONE THE ATTIC (480)898-1838 2015 February 1 Issue No. 15-2 www.atticneedlework.com TOLL-FREE: 1.888.94.ATTIC February Sampler of the Month Gigi R Designs’ “The Big Cat Sampler” (Mary Ann Johncock 1841) Here’s what Gigi says about this sampler on the back of the chart: This beautiful sampler was stitched by Mary Ann Johncock in 1841. Mary Ann was 28 years old at the time. The original sampler has been stitched on very fine linen with silk threads (approx. 22 threads per cm). The linen of the original is slightly uneven-weave and because of that the original has more square-like appearance than our reproduction. Colors on the front side of the sampler are fairly faded. The back side reveals that originally the sampler has been more colorful, but not bright. Colors for our reproduction are selected from the back side. The sampler of Mary Ann is rather large. It is 318 stitches wide and 350 stitches high. It is densely packed with lovely motifs. The most prominent of all is a big bear-like cat in the center of the sampler. It is dark brown and looks slightly overwhelming. If you want to make it less dominant choose lighter color of threads. There are more cats on Mary Ann’s sampler, as well as many dogs, birds, flowers, deer, windmill, domestic utensils and two Trees of Knowledge with Adam & Eve beneath.

  • Elijah Pitts: the Ideal Second String Back
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 21, No. 3 (1999) ELIJAH PITTS: THE IDEAL SECOND STRING BACK By Stan Grosshandler If Vince Lombardi had been asked to describe the ideal second string half back he would have snapped in his typicaI brusque way, "Elijah Pitts!” If asked to elaborate Vince would have said the ideal second string halfback is totally dedicated to the team, knows his role, and is always ready mentaIIy and physically to give 100%. This describes Elijah Pitts, who recently passed away last year at age 60. Pitts was a 13th round draft choice from the small Arkansas coIlege, Philander Smith. He joined the Green Bay Packers in 1961 to find future Hall of Famers Jim Taylor and Paul Hornung, plus the previous year’s number 1 choice, Tom Moore, in the backfield. The odds were stacked against him, to say the least. Elijah became adapt at running off tackle to daylight, the Packer sweep, and the option pass. He carried 23 times for 75 yards and one touchdown his rookie year. In 1962 he was again behind Taylor, Hornung, and Moore plus Earl Gros; however, he averaged 5 yards per carry and scored twice. Paul Hornung was suspended by the NFL in 1963 and Pitts backed up Moore. When Hornung returned, he continued his back-up roles in 1964 and ’65. By 1966 Hornung's many injuries had finally caught up with him and Elijah replaced him as the starter. He had more than 100 rushing attempts for the first and only time. He was the leading rusher in the championship game with 12 for 66 and one score, and in the Super Bowl he went 11 for 45 and two TDs .
