At their side throughout the great celebration will be the individual each has selected to serve as their presenter for enshrinement into the Hall of Fame. This year’s group of presenters includes a daughter, a father, two young sons, a member of the media, and two Hall of Fame head coaches. Claude Humphrey, the longtime defensive end of the Atlanta Falcons who finished his career with the Philadelphia Eagles, has chosen his daughter Cheyenne Humphrey-Robinson to present him for enshrinement. She becomes just the third daughter ever to serve as a presenter. John Elway was presented by his daughter Jessica in 2004, and last year Warren Sapp was presented by his daughter Mercedes. Michael Strahan has chosen his longtime friend and FOX NFL Sunday “teammate” Jay Glazer to present him. Glazer is a veteran FOX Sports NFL Insider and has worked alongside Strahan for many years. Hall of Fame coaches Marv Levy (Class of 2001) and John Madden (Class of 2006) both return to the Enshrinement stage for the third time as a presenter. Levy will present wide receiver Andre Reed and Madden will serve as the presenter for punter Ray Guy. Levy and Madden also shared the stage in 2002 when they presented Jim Kelly and Dave Casper, respectively. In addition, Madden presented owner Al Davis in 1992 and Levy served as a presenter for Thurman Thomas in 2007. OUR MISSION: Honor the Heroes of the Game, Preserve its History, Promote its Values & Celebrate Excellence EVERYWHERE. Linebacker Derrick Brooks and tackle Walter Jones have chosen their sons to present them. Decalon Brooks and Walterius Jones become the 25th and 26th sons to present their fathers. “Obviously, my first preference was having all of my kids say something but I had to pick just one,” Brooks stated about son Decalon. “Since he started playing football, I’ve always been directly involved with him, and now he gets a chance to be directly involved with me. I am anxious to see what he says representing his brothers and sisters.” Walter Payton, in 1993, became the first Hall of Famer to pick a son as a presenter when he selected his son Jarrett Payton. Other years in which sons have presented their fathers include: 2013 (Cris Carter, Curley Culp, Dave Robinson), 2012 (Jack Butler, Chris Doleman), 2011 (Chris Hanburger, Ed Sabol), 2010 (Floyd Little), 2008 (Darrell Green, Art Monk, Emmitt Thomas), 2006 (Harry Carson, Reggie White), 2005 (Dan Marino), 2004 (Bob Brown, Carl Eller), 2003 (James Lofton), 2002 (John Stallworth), 2001 (Nick Buoniconti), 1999 (Lawrence Taylor), 1998 (Anthony Muñoz), and 1997 (Don Shula). Lawrence Williams will be the seventh father to present his son for Enshrinement into the Pro Football Hall of Fame when he presents Aeneas Williams this year. Other Gold Jackets who’ve been presented by their father include Willie Roaf (2012), Steve Young (2005), Barry Sanders (2004), Marcus Allen (2003), and Ronnie Lott (2000). John Hannah was the first Hall of Famer to pick his dad as a presenter when Herb Hannah, a former NFL player, served in that role in 1991. The first “official” duty for the seven presenters will occur at the Gold Jacket Dinner on Friday, Aug. 1. It is during this event that the presenters will place the Hall of Fame Gold Jackets on the newest members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Then, at the Enshrinement Ceremony on Saturday, Aug. 2, dramatic video presentations will be broadcast to the fans in attendance at Pro Football Hall of Fame Field as well as to the national television audiences tuning in on NFL Network and ESPN. Each member of the Class of 2014 will then have their presenter accompany them to the Enshrinement podium where together they will unveil the Hall of Famer’s bronze bust for the first time.

  • 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.

  • Former NFL All-Pro Derrick Brooks Named Walter Camp Alumni Award Recipient Former Florida State and Tampa Bay Buccaneers Linebacker Will Be Honored on January 12
    For Immediate Release: December 11, 2012 Contact: Al Carbone (203) 671-4421 Follow us on Twitter @WalterCampPR Former NFL All-Pro Derrick Brooks Named Walter Camp Alumni Award Recipient Former Florida State and Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker will be honored on January 12 NEW HAVEN, CT – Former NFL All-Pro linebacker Derrick Brooks (Florida State University) is the recipient of the 2012 Walter Camp “Alumni Award.” Brooks joins a distinguished list of former “Alumni Award” winners, including Alan Page (Notre Dame), Bo Jackson (Auburn), Tony Dorsett (Pittsburgh), Herschel Walker (Georgia), Mark May (Pittsburgh) and last year’s recipient, Chris Spielman (Ohio State). The Walter Camp “Alumni of the Year” award is bestowed on a worthy individual who has distinguished himself in the pursuit of excellence as an athlete, in his personal career and in doing good works for others. He must be an individual who has exhibited dedication and good moral conduct in achieving success. He must be a compassionate and unselfish person who contributes his time and assistance in helping to encourage and comfort fellow human beings less talented and less fortunate than himself. He must be an individual who takes pride in having been a Walter Camp All-American. “We are pleased to recognize Derrick Brooks with the Walter Camp Alumni Award,” Foundation president John Marks said. “Derrick’s exceptional results on the football field pale in comparison to his charity work and advocacy of the value of education for young people.” A native of Pensacola, FL, Brooks played scholastically at Washington High School and was named to Florida’s “All-Century Team” as one of the Top 33 players in the state’s 100-year history of high school football.
