  • 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.

These may look like part of the usual rumors about Jackson frequently appearing in the media, however, they are not. Instead, these headlines are the opening scene of the music video for Jackson’s song ‘Leave Me Alone’, released on January 2, 1989, and directed by Jim Blashfield. Jackson opens by singing the words: I don't care what you talkin' 'bout baby I don't care what you say Don't you come walkin' beggin' back mama I don't care anyway ‘Leave Me Alone’ is a response to the rumors that began to circulate in the media after the worldwide success of Jackson’s 1982 album Thriller.

  • Curriculum-Based Study Guide Michael Jackson Dance Ensemble Michael Jackson
    Curriculum-Based Study Guide Michael Jackson Dance Ensemble Michael Jackson: An American Entertainment Icon Michael Jackson (1958-2009) was an American popular recording artist, dancer, singer- songwriter, musician, and philanthropist. He is recognized as the most successful entertainer of all time, having sold over 700 milllion of recordings. His significant contributions to popular music, dance and fashion, along with a celebrated personal life made him a global icon for over forty years. Figure 1. Michael Jackson in the 1980s. Born in Gary, Indiana, the eighth of ten children, Michael Jackson began his music and dance training at a young age. He was a lover tap and modern jazz, especially the work of the Nicholas Brothers, Fred Astaire, and Gene Kelly. Michael studied the moves of these performers closely. Michael also learned about the craft of performing from James Brown as well as many other African-American soul, R&B, and Motown artists. In 1964, at age six, Michael joined his brothers’ band as a backup vocalist and percussionist. By age eight, he was singing lead vocals with the band, which by this time was called The Jackson 5. Guided under the strict supervision of their father, Joe, the Jackson 5 toured the Midwest extensively in the late 1960s, performing as opening acts at black nightclubs. In 1968, the group was signed by Motown Records and set Billboard chart records with hit singles such as “I Want You Back”, “ABC”, “The Love You Save”, and “I’ll Be There.” It was during this time that young Michael was recognized as having prodigious gifts as a musician and dancer.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.
