Alan Page was let go by the Vikings because of his slimming down below 220 due to his avid off season marathon running. Page was the first NFL player to complete a marathon. During the off-season, Page attended law school and earned his juris doctorate (JD). Page went on to eventually serve as an associate justice on the Minnesota Supreme Court.
TIME magazine did a story on previous Super Bowl games in 1990 . They asked Alan Page to wear his Minnesota sweater #88 for a photoshoot. He refused as he felt it sent the wrong message to young boys that sports was the way to succeed instead of doing well in school.
alan page has always been known for saying the usual statements. at the same time though, he sounds like an absolute champ because what he says is real and spot on.
I'm a Baltimore boy who missed the Colts by eleven and a half years. Therefore they're the Indianapolis Colts to me, and Baltimore to me is Ravens Country. Not only that, but because my parents both grew up in the Washington, D.C. suburbs before moving together to the Baltimore area, I wasn't even raised as a Ravens fan. My team has always been and will continue to be the Washington Redskins.
TAX COW FARTS Lamentable-women and children beware-as your scatological references may be I share your view that Gumbel never belonged on TV. His arrogant sandpaper personality matched his behind the scenes feuds with co-workers on the Today Show.
True. It made it like baseball with parks having different dimensions and angles. Today we have the Mallification of stadiums. Magnificent in structure at the cost of dirt, weather, and unpredictability.
That's very interesting that the players talk about playing with pain. Now that the long term effects are known, I wonder if some of the players would've retired sooner if they could see the long term effects of the injuries they sustained. Especially the concussions. I respect those players because they didn't make a lot of money, but they played their hearts out because they loved the game.
Oh, dear god!! Terry Bradshaw got DESTROYED!! Was that a powerbomb by dude on the Browns?? Unreal. And now, you can't even make contact with the QB's chest area. Terry was geeking like fish on the beach. WOW.
Being up in New England at the time, we got to watch the game vs. the Colts. It was a really small crowd like Axthelm said. And the Patriots lost. So they got the #1 pick that they squandered on Kenneth Sims. But the Colts had #2 and #4 in the draft. Their #2 pick was some stiff named Johnnie Cooks. (They also drafted the very 'unlucky' Art Schliester at #4). Jim McMahon was the best early pick at #5...
In 81 the good teams were the 49ers, Bengals,Cowboys,Dolphins, Chargers. I believe this was Joe Gibbs first year as the Redskins coach,following this season the Bears would hire Mike Ditka as head coach the Raiders would move to LA and Dick Vermeil would resign as the Eagles head coach.
it's fascinating to watch any NFL from the 80's. the way it played out. the drama. fan interest was at an all time high. the league new it had a hot product and cashed in with lucrative tv deals. the players union wanted in on the financial windfall and went on strike at least twice and in the end player salaries escalated.
Pete Axthelm died in 1991 at the age of 47. I couldn't believe it when I found out. I always thought he was in his 50s. He looked and sounded about 20 years older than he was. I'm not sure if that is a good thing.
I've got a good guess here, WTCN preempted any other NBC SPORTS programming besides football at the time for their own local programming because at 24:04, you see the NBC SPORTSWORLD promo come on, then it's immediately covered over a PSA for a Channel 11 food drive. Am I right?
+Chris Kreager Believe it or not, Denver still had a chance of winning the AFC West even after losing to the Bears. San Diego played Oakland on Monday Night, and a Charger loss would have left them 9-7 to Denver's 10-6. But even though the Raiders were "unbeatable" on Monday Night at the time, the Chargers dominated and won and the Broncos stayed home. That weekend really sucked for me. In addition to being a Broncos fan, I lived in the Detroit area and was a Lions fan. The Lions had overcome a slow start and injury to starting QB Gary Danielson and were 8-7 going into the last game of the season. They had a winner take all home game against Tampa Bay, but despite being 7-0 at home that year and the Silverdome filled with 80,000 fans, the Lions lost 20-17. There were 2 big plays that did in the Lions: an 80+ yard TD pass from Doug Williams to Kevin House in the first half and a 4th quarter fumble by Lions QB Eric Hipple that TB returned for a TD.
+JBSptfn Yep, on a last second FG with 12 men on the field, but no penalty was called. The day after the Detroit-Dallas game, the Detroit Free Press had a front page picture of the Lions in field goal formation with numbered arrows pointing at each player. Kicker Eddie Murray was number 12.
Was at Shea for Jets vs GB with a playoff berth at stake that day- place was rocking as the Sack Exchange harassed Lynn Dickey and crushed the Pack 28-3 to go to the postseason for the 1st time since 1969
I was 8 or 9 & I can remember this Pre Game.. Alan Page HOF Football player Supreme Court.! Not bad What did U do With UR Life.? & Is it Me or was Football & Pre Game better back then.. Branty Gumbel and Bob Costas I think Greatness Legendary
wowww...I remember those "Kickoff" segments with the legendary Bob Sheppard and Eli Wallach...and yes, sorry Nitschke, Nobis, and even LT....but Butkus was and still IS the greatest linebacker in NFL history
@@robertpaige4505 🤣🤣🤣--GOOD ONE!!! Go to Linebackers Roundtable on RUclips. Great conversation with Willie Lanier, Harry Carson, Mike Singletary, Lawrence Taylor, and Ray Lewis.
Oh, yeah, I forgot: back in '81, filmed man-on-the-street interview clips had to be filmed and processed at least a day before, rather than almost instantly like today ("l'll put $50 on them tomorrow...") How times have changed!
hate to see head injury,but then again it was football and it was played by real men,not the image hungry clowns you suffer with today,always loved the game,collage or pro,after 1999 it just became unbearable,best game i saw in the last 15 years was 10 kids no adults for about an hour in an empty field,they were just playing the game and it was great.
The Patriots would end up with the #1 overall pick and took Texas DE Kenneth Sims. The Colts would pick #2 and took Mississippi State LB Johnnie Cooks. Neither made a Pro Bowl. It was all for nothing.
The Baltimore Colts beat the New England Patriots in the first game 29-28. Then they lost fourteen consecutive games to come into this one 1-14 against the 2-13 Patriots. So of course the Colts won 23-21 to finish 2-14 and get the #2 overall pick in the 1982 draft with the Pats going 2-14 to pick #1.
Half hour pre game shows with only one host was a lot better than an hour pregame show today with 5 or 6 football know it alls sitting there running their mouth.
@@mjbvideo I stopped watching pre game shows around the same time as well, Just show me the game, And even that's not what it used to be. Thanks for posting this, Great classic NFL material.
Better than today? At least in today’s pregame shows they actually talk about what might happen in that day’s games. This show spent zero time covering the games.
That was the end of the Colts in Baltimore, they moved in 1984 and Baltimore waited 12 years to get an NFL team. There 1984-1995 it was tough time in Baltimore without a team. But glad the Ravens came and reset is history. But we had what the Colts did to us is steel another team from another city. I was only 4 in 1981 and now 36 and a Ravens fan
The Vikings moving indoors doomed (and domed) them to many decades of losing. They were good in the outdoors, so why mess with that? Now the Vikings will always suck. It reminds me of the Redskins - who had one of the best home field advantages at RFK. So what? Just move away from there anyway! Now they will always suck!
I freaking hear you. The Metrodome is one of the worst stadiums in NFL history, past or present. The one thing about it that I look fondly on is my Skins' Super Bowl XXVI victory there. I went to three games at FedEx in 2009 and all three of them sucked because the stadium experience was just miserable.
epzik8 FedEx has now been the 'Skin's home stadium for nearly 20 years and they've got one playoff win there. It's been a disaster! I'll never understand why teams want to quit doing what's working. RFK has been there the entire time while they've been losing, too.

Sundays in the fall in the 70s and 80s were magic
1000 times better than todays game and broadcasts
My opinion, Steve Bartkowski was a very underrated QB.. and I miss the vintage, red Falcons jerseys..
I know! Those uniforms were awesome!
Steve Bartkowski was a great quarterback
not good in playoffs
beat eagles then lost to cowboys 2x and vikings
Back before we had 10 talking heads sitting in the studio yanking on each other's dummy.
Definitely. Miss the good ol days
Keep posting these pre games Mike.This is so good….brings me back. Gumbel was great in this role. It was just a great era.
I wish we could go back to 1981 and the entire 80s decade and stay.
Yes really good era
Pete Axthelm was a great NFL analyst. He died young in 1991 at age 47. He had a bad liver.
He looked much older.
He had a horrible drinking problem. It's sad. Another young and talented guy gone too soon
Great broadcast, I use to watch it every Sunday, really brings back fond memories
Christmas 1981. When Christmas was real, fun, and meaningful.
a beautiful time indeed !! ..I was 18 on this day growing up in the beautiful east bay California.
I got an Atari this Xmas
I was 12 and life was awesome
That set looked like ass but yeah... real fun. Yup.
The 80s uniforms were so COOL
This was the ONLY way to see NFL highlights b4 social media. They were so exciting & a chance to see teams on the other side of the country 🏈🏈🏈🏈
Wasn't until years later that I found out the pre-game intro music was by the band Chicago. Back in the 70s & 80s NFL was packaged beautifully.
I would give anything if NBC would use this intro just once next year and CBS the old NFL today intro from this era as well. Great music!!!
I agree, I am sick of the Fox NFL theme that sounds like a tired stampede of horses.
I’d love to see NBC carry AFC games & CBS carry the NFC games once again.

15 days later, Gumbel started his first day as the permanent male anchor on The Today Show.
And, against Joe Piscopo’s wishes, it would be Len Berman taking Bryant’s place on the NFL pregame show.
TAX COW FARTS Lamentable-women and children beware-as your scatological references may be I share your view that Gumbel never belonged on TV. His arrogant sandpaper personality matched his behind the scenes feuds with co-workers on the Today Show.
He was a Russian major and with Cold War going on, very effective particularly with producer Steve Friedman who was his producer at KNBC.
@@johnnyballenatl Piscopo was funnier when he wasn't on steroids. Only 165 lbs.
The greatest Pete Axthelm.
I can't even watch football anymore. These older games and shows had an innocence and realism to them.
Clasic NBC theme music!!
I don't like Bryant Gumbel's later work, but then he was very good doing the NFL.
I wish the Vikes went back outdoors. Being indoors weakens teams playing on the road in the cold outdoors.
That's why they were in 4 Super Bowls in 7 years
True. It made it like baseball with parks having different dimensions and angles. Today we have the Mallification of stadiums. Magnificent in structure at the cost of dirt, weather, and unpredictability.
The Vikings played outdoors for two seasons at tcf stadium at the University of Minnesota campus
Just 17,073 attended that Colts-Patriots game that was won by the Colts. Not that it mattered; the Mayflower trucks were barely two years out.
That's very interesting that the players talk about playing with pain. Now that the long term effects are known, I wonder if some of the players would've retired sooner if they could see the long term effects of the injuries they sustained. Especially the concussions.
