    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.

  • Father Bill MASS INTENTIONS
    PADRE’S CORNER March 26, 2017 "...You are a true encouragement to all of us that love Jesus, and the message of love and forgiveness He brought to us... Your heart for the Lord just radiates in your messages." Gary Cuozzo, who played as a quarterback in the early 1970's for the Minnesota Vikings football team, wrote those comments as a spiritual mandate for all of us recently to me. Ten years ago, while stationed in Staten Island, he visited the parish school I was assigned at (Our Lady Queen of Peace). I then drove early one Saturday morning to a prayer breakfast he was speaking at in South Jersey. The prayer card he signed for me had a picture of him being sacked, during a football game against the Green Bay Packers. The metaphor was the sacks of life we all go through (illness, relationship betrayals, economic stress, being laid off, divorces, unexpected deaths, world disorder), and how Jesus inserts Himself into every situation when invited through our prayers to promote healing and growth. Every moment of life offers us the opportunity to spiritualize all that we face, be it good or not so good. Gary went through the painful adjustments after his professional career as an athlete came to an end, and the tragic death of an athlete son Chip in college that furthered his faith development. I am inspired by his story, and have a signed photograph of his prayers for me close to an old 1960's seat from Metropolitan Stadium in Bloomington (now the Mall of America after the stadium demolition three decades ago), Minnesota.

  • The Real System
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 5 (1985) THE REAL SYSTEM By Bob Carroll By now everyone realizes that the NFL's Passer Rating System is only an elaborate code to hide things from the Russians. The question still remains – how can we tell who's the best quarterback? It's crucial that we answer this so that magazines will know who to put on their covers, advertisers will know who to hire as spokesmen, and a major TV network can have its broadcasters picked when Wednesday Night Football hits the tube. Of course, the answer has been there all the time. After all, it's not how you play the game, it's whether you won or lost, right? It follows that the best is the one who wins. Joe Montana was the best QB last year because he (ed. note: HE not San Francisco!) won the Super Bowl. Dan Marino was the second best, and so on. All you have to do is arrange the teams in the order they finished each year, substitute the name of their signal caller, and you'll get the perfect quarterback- rating system. As a matter of fact, don't bother. I already did it. Look below and you'll see the top six QBs for each of the last 40 years. I chose only to do the top six because nobody outside the town they're booed in remembers the others. Tell the truth; if you don't live in Kansas City, do you remember who quarterbacked the Chiefs last year? I had a little trouble with the order in the last few years because of the annoying habit of wild card teams winning playoff games, so I used an involved tie-breaking system which I've since forgotten.
