KLUTHO NOW ON Hope Chess IF AMERICA’S descent into chess oblivion began with Bobby Fischer’s decline, then its ascent into a chess renaissance starts with Fabiano Caruana, who is the subject of the documentary Your Move on SI TV. While Fischer was bombastic and incendiary, the 26-year-old Caruana is soft-spoken and demure. While Fischer was anxious and suspicious—equally concerned with the knight encroaching on his king as with the cameras filming his every move—Caruana is laid back. Despite their differences, Caruana is attempting to do something no American has done since Fischer, in 1974.

For the last few weeks we have trained our lenses on these stalwarts—NFL offensive linemen—who receive little credit, except of course from the running backs who would be poorer without them, the quarterbacks who depend on them for their safety and the coaches who count on them to deliver a victory week after week.

  • Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 3 (2002) Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense By Bob Carroll Paul Brown “always wanted his players to better themselves, and he wanted us known for being more than just football players,” Tony Adamle told an Akron Beacon Journal reporter in 1999. In the case of Adamle, the former Cleveland Browns linebacker who passed away on October 8, 2000, at age 76, his post-football career brought him even more honor than captaining a world championship team. Tony was born May 15, 1924, in Fairmont, West Virginia, to parents who had immigrated from Slovenia. By the time he reached high school, his family had moved to Cleveland where he attended Collinwood High. From there, he moved on to Ohio State University where he first played under Brown who became the OSU coach in 1941. World War II interrupted Adamle’s college days along with those of so many others. He joined the U.S. Air Force and served in the Middle East theatre. By the time he returned, Paul Bixler had succeeded Paul Brown, who had moved on to create Cleveland’s team in the new All-America Football Conference. Adamle lettered for the Buckeyes in 1946 and played well enough that he was selected to the 1947 College All-Star Game. He started at fullback on a team that pulled off a rare 16-0 victory over the NFL’s 1946 champions, the Chicago Bears. Six other members of the starting lineup were destined to make a mark in the AAFC, including the game’s stars, quarterback George Ratterman and running back Buddy Young.

The dour development from Sunday's 34-13 victory over the HAWKS VS. EAGLES 49ers in San Francisco was injuries to middle linebacker Lofa Tatupu and defensive end Patrick Kerney. But coach Mike WHEN/WHERE: Sunday, 1:15 p.m., Holmgren was optimistic Monday that each of the Pro Bowl Qwest Field players from a year ago will be available for this week's game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Qwest Field. TV/RADIO: KCPQ/13; KIRO-AM/710 Tatupu strained his groin, while Kerney aggravated his left shoulder -- the same one that needed surgery during the offseason to repair a torn labrum. Neither is expected to practice much this week, but each should be able to play. On Tatupu, Holmgren said, "I believe he'll be able to play in the game Sunday." On Kerney, he offered, "He is much stronger right now than he was yesterday. So our hope is, if he can regain his strength, which is the biggest thing, then we should have him as well. "It scared him. Because it was the shoulder that he had operated on and he did so much rehab on." The Seahawks pushed their record to 2-5 and climbed into a tie for second place in the NFC West with their win over the discombobulated 49ers.

  • 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.
