Rocklin and the Magical Seventeen Gary Day
Rocklin and the Magical Seventeen Gary Day Was there something special about their years training in Rocklin that brought the San Francisco 49ers from obscurity to greatness, and then back to obscurity when they left? Is there something special about Rocklin? The Niners trained at Sierra College here during the summers of 1981 through 1997. They won 73% of their games during that seventeen year period including sixteen National Football League playoff games and five Super Bowls. While training in Rocklin they had a winning record every year except the 1982 cancelled season. The Niners entered the NFL in 1950. In the 31 years before training in Rocklin they were a frequent disappointment, winning only 182 of 405 games. During their four best years of that period they played for the NFL championship but lost every year on their way to the title. The Dallas Cowboys beat them in championship games three straight years, in 1970 through 1972. Joe Montana fades to pass in the summer Since moving their summertime training from Rocklin in heat of Sierra College’s athletic field. 1998 the Niners have appeared in only five playoff Montana’s pro successes started in 1981, games while reverting to their pre-Rocklin losing pattern the Niners’ first year practicing in with only 78 wins in 181 games. Rocklin. The contrast between the Niners’ Rocklin years, and years when they summered elsewhere, is striking. No other team has won five Super Bowl titles during a seventeen year period. No other team has a higher decade-long winning percentage than the Niners did for the decade of the 80s.

The NFL Network announcer has a magnetic personality and, simply put, Steve is real—even in the midst of a career which has taken him from quarterbacks coach with the Green Bay Packers to head coaching jobs with the San Francisco 49ers and the Detroit Lions. He was on campus recently to tape an interview for the College’s television show. I help produce “Conversations from St. Norbert College” and it’s always fun working with the guests, but this occasion was a little different. I’ve known Steve—Mooch—since high school. Mike Counter (left) with Steve When I heard he was coming to town as part of the NFL Network team to Mariucci back in 1997 work the Dec. 21 Packers/Vikings game, I just had to ask him if he would take part in the show. He agreed, and his interview is airing this month. In conversation with Michael Marsden (Academic Affairs), Steve talks about life in the NFL, before, during and after football. I hope you can view the show where you live.

Three Cheers for Nfl Network!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Seth Palansky, NFL Network, 310/840-4686 NFL Network – 149 11/1/06 Dan Masonson, NFL Network, 212/450-2081 THREE CHEERS FOR NFL NETWORK! TURNING THREE, NFL NETWORK TURNS THE CORNER MOMENTUM CONTINUES WITH LIVE NFL GAMES THIS MONTH NFL Network launched only three years ago (November 4, 2003), but it is hard to fathom life before NFL Network. • How did you follow the preseason? • Or every coaches’ press conference? • What, there was no nightly news show dedicated to the NFL year-round? • Great games were not re-aired? • You couldn’t find coverage from inside the NFL Scouting Combine? • You always wanted a week-long pregame show leading into the Super Bowl but had nowhere to turn? • Wished for a TV show to break down the NFL schedule on the April afternoon it is released? • You needed your football fix in the spring but had nowhere to turn for mini-camp, free agent, and latest team news? • Want more games on TV as the run to the playoffs heats up? How did life exist pre-NFL Network? Well let’s not think of those dark days before iPods and You Tube and when Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith were football stars not Dancing With the Stars. Now, football fans can see all of this and more. As the year-round channel to all things football celebrates its third birthday on Saturday, the celebration will have to be short, with live NFL regular season games just weeks away! “This has been the most successful three years of any cable channel I have ever been a part of,” said 30-year television executive and NFL Network President & CEO Steve Bornstein.

Playoff Races Heat up As Nfl Season Enters December
PLAYOFF RACES HEAT UP AS NFL SEASON ENTERS DECEMBER As the calendar turns to December, the NFL playoff picture is starting to take shape. With five weeks remaining in the regular season, there are currently 24 teams either in or within two games of a playoff spot. Over the past five seasons, the Carolina Panthers (19-5, .792) and Seattle Seahawks (19-5, .792) own the best record in the final month, which also includes regular-season games played in January. The New England Patriots (18-6, .750) lead the AFC. TEAM WINS LOSSES PCT. Carolina Panthers 19 5 .792 Seattle Seahawks 19 5 .792 New England Patriots 18 6 .750 Green Bay Packers 17 6 .739 Pittsburgh Steelers 17 6 .739 “The games in December are the most important regular-season games by far,” says NFL Network analyst and former NFL head coach STEVE MARIUCCI. “It’s extremely important to win in December and to make a run at the playoffs.” As the NFL season enters the final month, four teams are racing towards the finish line with winning streaks of at least five games – Dallas (10), Miami (six), the New York Giants (six) and Oakland (five). “The momentum is real for us right now,” says Cowboys tight end JASON WITTEN. “Our football team is a lot of fun. It’s neat to be a part of this and lead a great group of guys. Ten wins is good but they don’t hang any banners after 11 games. We have to continue to build here going into a critical stretch.” That critical stretch begins on Thursday night when Dallas visits Minnesota (8:25 PM ET, NBC/NFLN/Twitter).

Coaching Diversity: the Rooney Rule, Its Application and Ideas for Expansion
Coaching Diversity: The Rooney Rule, Its Application and Ideas for Expansion By Douglas C. Proxmire December 2008 All expressions of opinion are those of the author or authors. The American Constitution Society (ACS) takes no position on specific legal or policy initiatives. Coaching Diversity: The Rooney Rule, Its Application and Ideas for Expansion Douglas C. Proxmire* On January 22, 2007, the Pittsburgh Steelers held a press conference to announce the hiring of Mike Tomlin as their new head coach. At the age of 34, Tomlin became the second- youngest head coach in the National Football League (“NFL”) and the tenth African-American coach in NFL history. As a sign of the NFL’s progress in the hiring of minority candidates to NFL head coaching positions, Tomlin’s race proved to be far less of an issue than Tomlin being picked over two long-time Steelers assistant coaches, Ken Whisenhunt and Russ Grimm. Pittsburgh chose Tomlin over Grimm, Whisenhunt, and at least nine others, even though Tomlin was the youngest candidate and had no connection with the Steelers organization as a player or an assistant coach. Given that Tomlin had no head coaching experience, had spent only one season as a defense coordinator, and at 34 was younger than some of the players on the Steelers’ roster, Tomlin was considered the longshot among the dozen candidates vying for the head coaching spot of one of the NFL’s marquee franchises. Nonetheless, Tomlin “bowled over”1 Pittsburgh team chairman Dan Rooney and team President Art Rooney after a round of interviews with the Steelers front office.

Active Statistical Leaders Heading Into 2001
“REAL” JOBS Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback TOMMY MADDOX once pitched insurance policies before he got a job throwing footballs. JOSE CORTEZ of the Kansas City Chiefs, the only NFL player in history born in El Salvador, was once a roofer. And everybody knows that 2001 NFL MVP KURT WARNER once stocked groceries. Indeed, a surprising number of NFL players had “real” jobs before they came into the league. “Football is a blue-collar man’s game,” says former Washington Redskins cornerback DARRELL GREEN. And maybe that’s why the league is filled with so many former “blue-collar” workers. Following is a list of “real jobs” previously held by some NFL players: PLAYER, TEAM CAREER(S) David Akers, Philadelphia Substitute teacher; waiter James Allen, Houston Worked at Houston recording studio Mitch Berger, St. Louis Pumped gas in Canada Jose Cortez, Kansas City Roofer Mark Dixon, Miami Golf course lawn maintenance Jay Feely, Atlanta Financial consultant Ray Jackson, Cincinnati Wal-Mart sporting goods employee Michael Lewis, New Orleans Budweiser truck driver Tommy Maddox, Pittsburgh Insurance salesman Fred McCrary, New England Corrections officer David Patten, New England Landscaper, electrician, truck loader Nathan Poole, Arizona Youth counselor Jeff Saturday, Indianapolis Electrical supply company Al Wallace, Carolina Public school assistant principal Kurt Warner, St. Louis Stocked groceries OTHER JOBS Football takes up a lot of their time, but that has not prevented a good number of NFL players from preparing for life after the game by jumping into some other lines of work even as they “moonlight” on the football field. For example, Philadelphia Eages cornerback TROY VINCENT – the 2002 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year – is a full-fledged offseason entrepreneur.
