  • PRO FOOTBALL HALL of FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2020-2021 Edition
    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2020-2021 EDITIOn wide receiver randy moss - hall of fame class of 2018 MInnESOTA VIKInGS Team History The pro football saga in the Twin Cities began in August 1959, when five Minnesota businessmen were awarded a franchise in the new American Football League. Five months later in January 1960, the same ownership group made up of Bill Boyer, Ole Haugsrud, Bernie Ridder, H. P. Skoglund and Max Winter first forfeited its AFL membership and then was awarded the National Football League’s 14th franchise that was to begin play in 1961. Perhaps no team in history ever had a more spectacular debut than did the Minnesota Vikings in their first game ever on September 17, 1961. Rookie Fran Tarkenton made a once-in-a-generation debut when he came off the bench to throw four touchdown passes and run for a fifth score to lead his Vikings to a 37-13 thrashing of the fabled Chicago Bears. Two-and-a-half decades later in 1986, Tarkenton became the first Vikings player to be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Minnesota’s first management team was led by general manager Bert Rose and head coach Norm Van Brocklin. From the start, the Vikings embraced an energetic marketing program that produced a first- year season ticket sale of nearly 26,000 and an average home attendance of 34,586, about 85 percent of the capacity of 40,800 Metropolitan Stadium. Eventually the stadium capacity was increased to 47,900. Rose resigned from his position in 1964 and Van Brocklin quit abruptly in the spring of 1967.

  • Cowboys QB Dak Prescott and Lions Rookie LB Jarrad Davis Among NFL Players Who Trained at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Disney
    Cowboys QB Dak Prescott and Lions Rookie LB Jarrad Davis Among NFL Players Who Trained at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Disney With most NFL training camps underway, Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott and Detroit Lions rookie LB Jarrad Davis were among several players who participated in final offseason workouts with renowned performance trainer Tom Shaw at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World Resort. Prescott (drafted by Cowboys in the 4th round of the 2016 NFL Draft) and Davis (drafted No. 17 overall by the Lions this year) trained at Disney with fellow NFL players working with Shaw to improve speed, agility, strength and explosiveness. Shaw has worked with other NFL stars such as Hall of Famer Derrick Brooks, Jameis Winston, Calvin Johnson and Tom Brady. Part of the workouts with Prescott and Davis involved training with youth athletes who are spending their summers getting ready for their upcoming sports seasons. In addition to Davis and Prescott, Shaw also had more than 40 NFL prospects and veterans in his program earlier this spring, including the No. 17 overall pick (Washington Redskins) DE Jonathan Allen. Over the years, Shaw has worked with more than 145 NFL first-round draft choices, 10 No. 1 picks and 11 Super Bowl MVPs – many of whom he has trained at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. Shaw also works with youth and collegiate athletes, including those who participate in Disney Spring Training, where high school and college baseball, golf, lacrosse, rugby, softball, tennis and track & field teams train at Disney during spring break.
