  • 1963 San Diego Chargers
    The Professional Football Researchers Association The AFL’s First Super Team Pro Football Insiders Debate Whether the AFL Champion San Diego Chargers Could Have Beaten the Bears in a 1963 Super Bowl By Ed Gruver It's an impossible question, but one that continues to intrigue until January 12, 1969, when Joe Namath quarterbacked the members of the 1963 AFL champion San Diego Chargers. upstart New York Jets to a stunning 16-7 victory over the heavily- favored Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III, that the AFL earned its If the Super Bowl had started with the 1963 season instead of first championship game win over the NFL.

  • Wayne Frazier
    Professional Football Researchers Association www.profootballresearchers.com Wayne Frazier This article is by Budd Bailey. Wayne Frazier must have had mixed feelings about the sport of football. It plunked him out of a small rural town in southern Alabama, and sent him on a journey that took him to a major college and the professional ranks. Still, he paid a price for it. No doubt Frazier was reminded of the down side of the game whenever he got out of bed in the morning and landed on some fragile knees. William Wayne Frazier was born on March 5, 1939 in Evergreen, Alabama. For those driving from Mobile to Montgomery on Interstate 65, Evergreen (about 4,000 people) is one of the few “cities” along that route. It’s about halfway between the two bigger cities, and is surrounded by undeveloped land. No wonder it was called “Evergreen” by the first settlers in 1819. Wayne’s father was named Ellis S. Frazier. He described his job in the 1940 census as a foreman timekeeper in government. For a man who only had an eighth-grade education, that probably wasn’t a bad living. Wife Cora picked up some extra money selling cosmetics part-time. Wayne was only 1 year old for the 1940 census, and his two big brothers were Ellis Jr. and James. Two more sisters came along later. Frazier once talked about a key figure in his development as an athlete during a speech years later in Evergreen. Sportswriter Lee Peacock reported that Frazier said he was beaten up by a bully every day in elementary school.

  • Bill Walton Recalls 'The Most Perfect Childhood Ever'
    Bill Walton Recalls 'the Most Perfect Childhood Ever' Long before he was a star at UCLA or an icon of the NBA, Bill Walton was Billy Walton, a redheaded ember of energy flying around La Mesa on his bicycle. Now 57, Walton remembers those days as magical. "Incredible memories of growing up in the '50s and '60s," he told La Mesa Patch. "It's such a time … such a golden era. I did not grow up with a silver spoon, but I did grow up in a golden dream. The dream of being part of something really special. So much hope, so much belief that there was always a better tomorrow." He was one of four children of Ted and Gloria Walton—Bruce, Bill, Andy and Cathy —who lived in a hillside home on Colorado Avenue just below Lake Murray. It was a house filled with books, music and constant, lively conversation. See archival video of Billy Walton playing for Helix in 1970. For Billy, the days were an endless stream of adventures as he rode his bike or skateboard, hiked in wide-open spaces, explored the city's parks and discovered the world of sports. Later, as a teen at Helix High School (where he secretly acquired a key to the gym and won two state titles), he was college basketball's most prized recruit, a talent who already could hold his own in pickup games with players from the NBA's San Diego Rockets. He calls it "the most perfect childhood ever." In detail he remembers his good friends, his teachers, his coaches, his teammates and his introduction to basketball.

  • An AFL Legacy: the Odd-Front Defense
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 19, No. 3 (1997) An AFL Legacy: The Odd-Front Defense By Ed Gruver When the National and American Football Leagues merged following the 1969 season, the old AFL gave way to the new AFC. In the decade that followed, the AFC dominated pro football, producing dynasties in Miami and Pittsburgh and changing the way the game is played by popularizing old strategies and introducing new ones. From January, 1969 to January, 1984, the AFC captured 12 of the 16 Super Bowls played, outscoring NFC teams by a two-to-one margin and winning by an average score of 24-12. In seven of those 12 wins, AFC defenses held the NFC champions to 10 points or less; in a three-year stretch encompassing Super Bowls VII, VIII, IX, the NFC's scoring output was seven, seven, and six points, respectively. The origin of the AFC's dominance is open to debate. Some historians suggest the starting date as January 12, 1969, when the New York Jets, champions of the AFL, shocked the sporting world by defeating the heavily-favored NFL champion Baltimore Colts, 16-7, in Super Bowl III. AFL supporters who suffered through Green Bay's overwhelming victories in the first two Super Bowls reveled in the Jets' performance in the Miami Orange Bowl and pointed to Super Bowl III as the game where the upstart AFL came of age and achieved equality with the NFL. Fans of the Establishment weren't so sure; many NFL supporters wrote off the Jets win as a fluke occurrence.

    APBA FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST Volume 3 The following players comprise volume 3 of APBA's Great Football Teams of the Past ("GTOP") 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. Names in bold are starters. 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.
