  • NFL World Championship Game, the Super Bowl Has Grown to Become One of the Largest Sports Spectacles in the United States
    / The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) by Chelsea Police Thesis Advisor Mr. Neil Behrman Signed Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2016 Expected Date of Graduation May 2016 §pCoJI U ncler.9 rod /he. 51;;:, J_:D ;l.o/80J · Z'7 The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making ~0/G , PG.5 Abstract Originally known as the AFL-NFL World Championship Game, the Super Bowl has grown to become one of the largest sports spectacles in the United States. Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events. Acknowledgements First, and foremost, I would like to thank my parents for their unending support. Thank you for allowing me to try new things and learn from my mistakes. Most importantly, thank you for believing that I have the ability to achieve anything I desire. Second, I would like to thank my brother for being an incredible role model.

  • DAVE BUTZ CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Excerpts from the Washington Redskins Press Guides
    DAVE BUTZ CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Excerpts From The Washington Redskins Press Guides 1982 Season On the defense that gave up the fewest points (128) in the NFL last season, Dave Butz anchored it. He was unanimous "Why didn't he get picked for the Pro Bowl?" selection, as Dave had his best season as a pro. He led the defensive line with 55 regular season tackles and 19 post-season stops. The veteran, who now has played in 109 of 112 games since coming to the Redskins, also recorded 4-1/2 regular season sacks, forced one fumble, and recovered one fumble. In the playoffs, Dave forced two fumbles, and, of course, recovered David Woodley's Super Bowl fumble after Dexter Manley knocked the ball loose. That particular play brought out the experience of Dave Butz. A younger player might have tried to scoop it up and run and lose the ball, but Dave just made sure he was in bounds and had the ball. A Moseley field goal shortly followed. Dave has now played in 55 straight contests and has led the Redskin defensive line in tackles the last three seasons. He also was given a Timmie Award by the Washington Touchdown Club, his second (he won one in 1979). Games Played: 9 Games Started: 9 1983 Season Some players have seasons to remember; others have specific games to remember. In 1983, Dave Butz had one of each. His season was, in a word, spectacular. In reaching the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career (an overdue honor), Dave made 69 tackles (2nd best among defensive linemen), piled up a team-leading 11-1/2 sacks, forced a team-best five fumbles, and even recovered one.

  • The Pioneers
    Gridiron Glory: Footballs Greatest Legends and Moments is the most extensive and comprehensive exhibit featuring America’smost popular sport ever to tour. Many of the objects included in the exhibition have never been outside the walls of their home, the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The artifacts are representative of the great moments, great players and coaches and milestone moments of the sport over the last 100-plus years. Below is a partial list of the rare and historically significant artifacts that will be presented in Gridiron Glory: Footballs Greatest Legends and Moments. The Pioneers This section looks at the early days of the sport when a very unorganized, rough and tumble game was played in empty lots and other makeshift venues. It captures the moment when the NFL was born, when the rules of the game were created anew on every field and when one player of staggering ability, Red Grange, “barnstormed” across America to drum up fan support for a sport in its infancy. Artifacts featured include: 1892 Allegany Athletic Association accounting ledger – Pro Football’sBirth Certificate This accounting ledger sheet from the 1892 Allegheny Athletic Association documents football’s first case of professionalism. “Pro Football’sBirth Certificate” has never before been displayed outside the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Jim Thorpe’sCanton bulldogs Sideline Blanket In 1915 the Canton Bulldogs signed Jim Thorpe to a $250 per game contract. Thorpe, the first big-name athlete to play pro football, was an exceptional talent and major gate attraction. His outstanding talent enabled Canton to lay claim to unofficial world championships in 1916, 1917 and 1919.

In case you haven't heard, this is Super Bowl weekend, the mid- winter festival of America's Imperial Age, the sporting event that identifies itself with Roman Numerals. And once again this year the game itself promises to be an anti-climax. If all goes as expected the game should be of no interest by the end of the first half as the Forty-Niners run over the San Diego Chargers in the mismatch of the century. This is the biggest point spread in the history of the game, reaching as high as 21 during the past week.

  • Richard Crepeau, “The Super Bowl at 50 Or
    THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF THE HISTORY OF SPORT, 2017 VOL. 34, NOS. 1–2, 7–22 https://doi.org/10.1080/09523367.2017.1349114 The Super Bowl at 50 or L Richard Crepeau History Department, University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL, USA ABSTRACT KEYWORDS In the short span of a half-century the Super Bowl has grown from a Super Bowl; National modest championship game between two football leagues into an Football League; American outsized mid-winter holiday co-produced by the National Football Football League; television; League and the combined efforts of the American advertising and Thorstein Veblen television industries. It has grown from a one-day into a two-week festival featuring a vast range of events, parties, and a championship football game. Fifty years on, half of the population of the United States and a worldwide television audience participate in Super Bowl activities and festivities either live or virtually. Television, marketing, and a wide range of media platforms have aided and abetted the growth of this celebration of football and consumption. Although there are many ways to describe the Super Bowl it is the nineteenth century vocabulary of the economist Thorstein Veblen that best captures its essence. In Veblen’s words it is a case of ‘conspicuous consumption’ now running on steroids. For those of us who remember the first Super Bowl it seems a bit surprising that the National Football League championship game has reached age fifty. Even more surprising may be the fact that this championship football game has morphed into a mid-winter national celebration on a scale that dwarfs all other sporting events in this country and rivals the biggest events across the globe.

  • Running Game \(COUNTER/POWER SERIES\)
    The “Power” Running Game (COUNTER/POWER SERIES) The “Power” running series, popularized by Joe Gibbs’ Washington Redskins, is still dominant in the NFL and Division I colleges today. The leading single game rusher in Super Bowl history is Timmy Smith (Redskins) who ran for 204 yards and 2 TD’s in Super Bowl XXII, ALL of it on the “Counter”, which is the key play in the “Power Series”. The third leading single game rusher in Super Bowl history is John Riggins (Redskins) who ran for 166 yards and 1 TD in Super Bowl XVII (in the same offense). In teaching offensive line play in this series, the following must be stressed: 1. “WHO” (who to block), and 2. “HOW” (how to block) You must spend as much time on “WHO” as you do on “HOW”, because a poor block on the right man is better than a good block on the wrong man! (Quote from Russ Grimm). Teaching the “WHO” aspect in the “Power Series”: The blocking on all 5 plays is constant from ON TACKLE to OFF TACKLE. Only the TE (Y) , HB, & OFF GUARD change men according to the play. Rules for ON TACKLE to OFF TACKLE are as follows (assignments of TE, HB & OFF G will be listed with each play): 9 ON TACKLE & ON GUARD: 1. If inside teammate uncovered – combo with your outside teammate from man on YOU to backside LB. 2. If your inside teammate is covered – combo with him from man on him to backside LB (OR: gap block vs. “solid” look).
