Man, this goes way back to when I was a child growing up and spending thanksgiving with my family in Galveston, Texas, my uncle would turn on the NFL today which came on right after the thanksgiving day parade had concluded
I enjoy these games too. I love the ability to watch games before I got into it. I was only 6 years old. Then these flashback videos from games in the 1930's is even more awesome.
That Falcons-Saints game was the first NFL game I ever attended. I was 6 years old, my dad took me and my sister, the weather was miserable and so were the Falcons.
There's something I've never seen before.!st half. June Jones of Atlants rolls out to the right, is pressured so he throws the ball into sextuple (!!!) coverage. The pass was incomplete. Neither announcer notices that Jones threw the ball to a receiver who had six defenders surrounding him. Amazing.
@4:49:54 Irv’s segment is so awesome-a preview of the Genius changing the NFL forever-so awesome! And Jane’s segment before that, on Tim foley the lounge singer, not too bad
Love watching these games. I was only six years old when this game took place. Love the fact I can watch games prior to the time I started getting into football (1981). I've seen game played back in the 1950"s both football and baseball. Awesome. Thanks for uploading these videos
It was our refuge from the storm and our great uniter. Here in Indianapolis, for example, when the Colts were playing, we weren’t Democrats or Republicans, we were simply Colts. Then the NFL and the other major pro sports leagues decided that politics must become part of the games. Thus they made the games as divisive as anything else in society and made tens of millions of us feel unwelcome. I commentate high school football and basketball for radio here in Indianapolis, and I so desperately hope that high school sports remain non-political.
interesting interviews with Hollywood Henderson, bob Hayes, and Charlie T. They didn’t reference this in the Hayes interview, but learned that he was convicted of armed robbery when he was at Florida A&M? Guessing there was something fishy about that case, but the overall question is why start selling drugs? Sadly, Henderson could have been the LT before LT at linebacker and a HOF player if not for drug abuse. He looked on drugs during the interview. that close up of Pastorini’s eye was scary. The first quarter of the Oilersv. Cowboys thanksgiving is just a massive explosion of energy. Staubach, pearson, Dorsett, and Campbell, all firing on all cylinders.
That Bob Hayes feature is just harrowing to watch, especially during the same week Dallas let go of a clearly troubled Hollywood Henderson. I must point out that Hayes’ remorse was so remarkably genuine.
good interview. seems like reality set in for Hayes, pretty hard. Interview had to be much longer, seemed edited down too much. I imagine they asked him “why did you do it?”. He had a number of references to living the high life and the thrill and status from the limelight, maybe that’s all it was? Looking him up, i was more surprised to see that he was convicted of armed robbery while in college at Florida A&M-what? Makes no sense.
A meteor after entering Earth’s gravitational pulling atmosphere that results in liquid rock , is almost as smokin hot as Jayne Kennedy! My god man , have mercy on us men will ya ?! Sakes alive that was one gorgeous Woman . How she was never Miss America was a mystery me ?!
as a kid in the late 70's, I have so many fond memories of the NFL then, great times for sure

June Jones coached the Falcons for a few years, but had his biggest success in Hawaii 🍍🌈
Looking forward to nearly 24 hours of NFL vegging.
Bum Phillips said after his game against Dallas: "I've been saying all week that this was just like any other week. I lied."

Football was such a great game, my God, what they did to it

The *first* Summerall & Madden broadcast
It's Pat Summerall-Tom Brookshier. John Madden would join CBS in 1980. This is 1979.

Classic don’t take the day off for Brookshire
8:43:20 Check out the earliest Madden/Summerall banter.
Pat Summerall complimented Monte Clarke on a 1-11 season. Pat was a nice guy.
They would end up at 2-14 with the number one draft choice they drafted Billy Sims out of Oklahoma who won the Heisman Trophy the year before 1978
Hard to kick a man while he is down, and when he’s starting to stand up.
LOVE IT❤!!!! THE MUSIC......AWESOME. MAGA......
Love the opening of the NFL Today!! Irv Cross with a great report on the history of the Thanksgiving Day game!
Happiness is being a Lions, Browns, Chargers, Oilers-Titan's fan.
