  • With Many African American Quarterbacks Achieving Success In
    FULL TEXT DOCUMENT PHILADELPHIA, PA.-----With many African American Quarterbacks achieving success in the Pee Wee, Scholastic, College, and Professional ranks and with the retirements of the first wave of prominent African American Quarterbacks (James Harris, Doug Williams, Warren Moon, Randall Cunningham, and others), I felt that reviewing the history of these men and the pioneers before them was needed. History has shown that the journey of the African American QB was not an easy one, but when given the opportunity these men thrived in a system that was sometimes stacked against them. African American Quarterbacks are now in 2005, no longer an anomaly and are thriving. There has even been debate that Warren Moon with his gaudy statistics and winning ways in the Canadian Football League (CFL) and National Football League (NFL) has the credentials to be the first Full Time African American Quarterback inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, which I know will create an interest in this topic. If Moon is fortunate enough to make it into the Hall of Fame, this would be a testament to himself and his predecessors at the position. African American Quarterbacks in their history have been shunned, converted to other positions, fought for inclusion, stereotyped (Drastic Misconceptions about the Leadership and Intelligence of African American Quarterbacks) and chased opportunities in other leagues, but they have persevered to go from an Unwanted Oddity to Flourishing leaders. Their extensive history is documented below: Early Years (1890’s – 1946) The first mention of African Americans playing football was in a College Football game played on November 23, 1892 (Thanksgiving) between historically black colleges Biddle (Later Johnson C.

A sore shoulder turned out to be a rare tumor and after years of searching for answers, in life saving surgery, his arm and shoulder were amputated at Sloan Kettering hospital in 1979. With the end of his football dreams he went on to a successful corporate career plus a career in broadcasting and as a motivational speaker. Kevin and his wife, Paula live in Wilmington, Delaware.

  • The Eagles Encyclopedia: Champions Edition
    PREFACE N THE MORNING OF THE SUPER BOWL PARADE, I was walking past the Museum of Art when I heard someone calling my name. A man was standing behind a police barricade, wrapped in a blanket, motioning for me to come over. After we shook hands, he reached in his pocket and pulled out a photograph of a little boy and an older man at Franklin Field. “That’s me and my father at the 1960 championship game,” he said. “I was ten years old.” OI said I was there, too, with my parents and grandparents. We were sitting in Section EE. “So were we,” the man said. “Bednarik tackled Jim Taylor right in front of us.” The man looked at the picture again, and his eyes filled with tears. He said he and his father often talked about that day and how they hoped one day they would see the Eagles win it again. They vowed to go to the game, wherever it was, and watch it together just the way they did in 1960. They were in Jacksonville at Super Bowl XXXIX, and, of course, we all know how that day ended. So they waited for the next time. “My father died three years ago,” the man said, “but when the Eagles won on Sunday, I felt like they won it for him. I camped out here last night so I’d have a good spot for the parade. Having this picture with me, it’s like we’re here together, just like we talked about. You know what I mean?” I understood perfectly.

INTRODUCTION "Of particular importance in individual negotiations between agents and clubs are three aspects of bargaining.The first is bar- gaining in which the agent is seeking as large an economic reward for the player's services as possible. The more the agent receives for the player the less is left over for the club. In contrast is a second aspect of bargainingin which the negotiatorsengage in joint prob- lem solving to come up with solutions that benefit both sides. A third aspect of individual contract negotiation is structuring the bargainingenvironment or ambiance so as to smooth the path toward agreement. "I A. Definition and Qualifications of a Sports Agent Though sports agents can, and often do, perform almost every service for their clients, most "sports agent" definitions focus only on the bare-bones agent responsibilities.
