  • The Ice Bowl: the Cold Truth About Football's Most Unforgettable Game
    SPORTS | FOOTBALL $16.95 GRUVER An insightful, bone-chilling replay of pro football’s greatest game. “ ” The Ice Bowl —Gordon Forbes, pro football editor, USA Today It was so cold... THE DAY OF THE ICE BOWL GAME WAS SO COLD, the referees’ whistles wouldn’t work; so cold, the reporters’ coffee froze in the press booth; so cold, fans built small fires in the concrete and metal stands; so cold, TV cables froze and photographers didn’t dare touch the metal of their equipment; so cold, the game was as much about survival as it was Most Unforgettable Game About Football’s The Cold Truth about skill and strategy. ON NEW YEAR’S EVE, 1967, the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers met for a classic NFL championship game, played on a frozen field in sub-zero weather. The “Ice Bowl” challenged every skill of these two great teams. Here’s the whole story, based on dozens of interviews with people who were there—on the field and off—told by author Ed Gruver with passion, suspense, wit, and accuracy. The Ice Bowl also details the history of two legendary coaches, Tom Landry and Vince Lombardi, and the philosophies that made them the fiercest of football rivals. Here, too, are the players’ stories of endurance, drive, and strategy. Gruver puts the reader on the field in a game that ended with a play that surprised even those who executed it. Includes diagrams, photos, game and season statistics, and complete Ice Bowl play-by-play Cheers for The Ice Bowl A hundred myths and misconceptions about the Ice Bowl have been answered.

NFF and Chick-fil-A College Football Hall of Fame to Celebrate Black History Month with Special Tributes Special exhibit and interviews with leaders, champions and legends will celebrate Black History and its connections to college football. IRVING, Texas (Feb. 1, 2021) – The National Football Foundation (NFF) and the Chick-fil- A College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta will celebrate Black History Month 2021 with a series of initiatives, including a special exhibit at the Hall, a web series, a panel event and a Q&A series with members of the NFF Board of Directors. "College football has a rich history of being in the vanguard of shaering racial barriers," said NFF Chairman Archie Manning. "Ever since the first Black player took the field at a predominately white college in 1889, college football has helped integrate our country and overcome prejudices. We are extremely proud of this history, and it is a powerful testament of how football has made an impact well beyond the playing field." "We're blessed to have these amazing men on the NFF Board," said NFF President & CEO Steve Hatchell. “They have distinguished themselves in all they’ve ever done. They provide a window into the richness that is Black history.” Throughout the month of February, the NFF will release a Q&A series with members of the NFF Board, sharing their insights about Black History, social injustice in our country and their experiences on the gridiron.
