The new league gave birth to many new teams along with the Patriots: Buffalo Bills, Denver Broncos, Houston Oilers, New York Jets, Oakland Raiders, San Diego Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs. Upon entering the league in 1960, the Patriots were without a permanent landlord. After bouncing around from Boston College to Boston University, Fenway Park and Harvard University, the Patriots set up permanent residence at then - Schaefer Stadium in Foxboro, Mass. in 1971. On May 23, 1983, Schaefer Stadium became Sullivan Stadium as a tribute to William H. Sullivan, the founder, owner, and driving force behind the Patriots. It wasn 'I long before the Patriots established themselves as a competitive force in a competitive league. The Patriots have made the post-season playoffs five times - first in 1963, when playing in the first playoffs in American Football League history in a match for the Eastern Division title. The Patriots beat the host Bills, 26-8, before 33,044 at the War Memorial Stadium. The game was played on December 28th. In 1976, the Patriots, who had finished with a 3-11 record the previous season, mustered an 11-3 record. Quite a turn around for any team. On December 18th, the Patriots' played the Raiders at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum, marking the Patriots first playoff appearance since 1963. The Patriots - the only team to beat the Raiders during the regular season ( 48-17) - lost the game 24-21 in front of 53,045 fans. The Patriots have appeared twice during the playoff season since 1976: in 1978 the Patriots played their first playoff game in Schaefer Stadium against the Houston Oilers, and in 1982, they played the Miami Dolphins after finishing seventh in the 14 team AFC field. A lot of names and faces have changed here over the twenty-five years. Before Billy Sullivan started the Patriots, there had been more than a half dozen profes­ sional teams that failed to make the grade in New England. The Patriots have had eight coaches through the years. Coach Lou Saban first took charge in 1960 and 1961. He was succeeded by Mike Holovak (1961 - 1968), Clive Rush (1969 - 1970), John Mazur (1970 - 1972), Phil Bengston (1972), Chuck Fairbanks (1973 - 1978), Ron Erhardt (1979 - 1981), and pres­ ent head coach Ron Meyer. The Patriots will enter their Silver Anniversary season with a lifetime regular season record of 154-178-9. 3 PATRIOTS' CLUB DIRECTORY SULLIVAN STADIUM, FOXBORO, MA 02035 TELEPHONE: (617) 543-7911 (Foxboro) (capacity 60,606) (617) 262-1776 (Boston) President - William H.

PRESIDENT WILLIAM H. SULLIVAN, JR. William H. "Billy" Sullivan. Jr. 's life has been filled with many pleasant memories, but one of his most cherished occurred on June 29. 1983. For it was on that day that Schaefer Stadium, home of the New England Patriots, was dedicated as Sullivan Stadium in tribute to the man who is the founder, owner and driving force of the Patriots. Billy Sullivan and his family have spent many tireless hours over the past twenty-five years to build a pro football team that New England would be proud to call its own. It was only fitting that the stadium be renamed in honor of the man who made great sacrifices for the Patriots to prosper in New England. Until 1959. New England had been a graveyard for more than a half dozen pro­ fessional football teams. but Billy changed that. Through his untiring efforts and perseverance, Billy not only fielded a team in the newly formed American Football League, he has guided the development of the franchise into becoming one of the most popular and competitive clubs in the NFL. On November 18. 1959, Billy was awarded the eighth franchise in the fledgling American Football League. He has made an indelible impact on the nation's No. 1 sport since that great day. He did get a team on the field.

    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.
