 | Few people have spent as much time around the National Football League as has Richard Whittingham. He has written more than 15 books on professional football, including the definitive histories of the New York Giants, the Chicago Bears, the Washington Redskins, and the Dallas Cowboys. Sunday's Heroes was born out of Whittingham's many years of researching the league and its history, and from his hundreds of interviews with players, coaches, owners and journalists. The finished product is a compilation of stories, vignettes, and first-person accounts that successfully bring to life the blood, sweat, tears, triumph, laughter, and cheers that have defined the National Football League for more than 80 seasons. Pat Summersall provides a thoughtful, reflective introduction about his more than 50-year association with the NFL, and then Whittingham's collection of essays and interviews introduce the reader to the human side of the league, beginning with the legendary figures that began the league, right up to today's players and the upcoming and laugh with such figures as Jim Thorpe and Red Grange, George Halas and Art Rooney, Grantland Rice and John Madden, Dick Butkus and Ray Nitschke, John Unitas and Joe Montana, and so many more. Whittingham's access to so many NFL greats over the years provides us access to their own thoughts and stories, putting Sunday's Heroes in a class by itself. 240 Pages (less) | $29  Online Sports |
|  | Sports Memorabilia. On January 11, 1946, Bell was selected to replace Elmer Layden as NFL commissioner and subsequently sold his ownership in the Steelers after being given a three-year contract at $25,000 per year.

|  | Super Bowl XVIII Patch and Game Details Card. Super Bowl XVIII was the 18th Super Bowl, the championship game of the National Football League (NFL). The game was played on January 22, 1984 at Tampa Stadium in Tampa, Florida following the 1983 regular season. The American Football Conference (AFC) champion Raiders, who were playing out of Los Angeles at that time, defeated the National Football Conference (NFC) champion Washington Redskins, 389. The Raiders' 38 points and their 29 point margin of victory were both Super Bowl records. The fact that the Redskins had come into the game as the heavily-favored team but left with such a humiliating defeat led Super Bowl XVIII to be known as "Black Sunday," in reference to the Raiders' team colors. Raiders' running back Marcus Allen was the Super Bowl MVP, carrying the ball 20 times, for a then-record total of 191 yards and two touchdowns, including a spectacular 74-yard run in the third quarter. His 74 yard run and his 9.6 yards per carry ... (less)Hollywood Collectibles | $54  amazon.com |

|  | Longest Yard - In this rough-and tumble movie, actually filmed on-location at the Georgia State Prison, the cons are the heroes and the guards are the heavies. Eddie Albert is the sadistic warden who'll gladly make any sacrifice to push his guards' semi-pro football team to the national championship. Burt Reynolds plays one-time pro quarterback Paul Crewe, now behind bars for leading State Police on a wild chase in a "borrowed car" and more. He agrees to organize a prisoners' team to play the guards. The warden intercedes to assure that his goon squad will meet only passive resistance from Crewe's "Mean Machine." But the license to pound on their hated guards is a big incentive for murderers and thieves to learn strategy. North Dallas Forty - In a society in which major league sporting events have replaced Sunday worship as the religion of choice, North Dallas Forty appears like a desecration at the altar.
