hopes for the new year actually begin just a few weeks after the old season has ended with the nfl draft of college players unlike today when dozens of players attend a prime time event for which nfl fans line up to get tickets quiet down a little bit please the 1974 draft started on a tuesday morning with few spectators and by all accounts only one player ohio state's john hicks in attendance the draft was 17 rounds long the delay was caused by a dispute between new orleans and detroit in the first 42 picks tiny tennessee state had more players taken than notre dame michigan usc and oklahoma combined all told nfl clubs selected 76 running backs five hall of famers one future heavyweight boxer and dave weinstein through it all nicotine clouds filled the air and by the end the old ways that the nfl viewed the draft had gone up in smoke national football league pittsburgh collects lynn swine winner boomers that's why the culture picking second ever who the hell is select eli manning this is the vince lomarti trophy for the winner of the super bowl as they hoisted pro football's big silver trophy in january 1974 the miami dolphins were the nfl's gold standard they'd been to three straight super bowls won the previous two and completed the only perfect season in league history and miami did it with a team that wasn't built in its own draft more than half of the 73 dolphins were veterans who would come to miami from different nfl clubs bob griese was a first-round draft pick larry zonko was a first-round draft pick but around that they filled in with with guys that didn't have big names but that they knew could play like the dolphins many nfl teams were not built through the draft in 1974. molding other people's players into champions had worked for vince lombardi and was now being successfully taken to new extremes by george allen let's watch stuff here on this one he had that over the hill gang all these veterans and his philosophy was keep old guys and that's where he coined the phrase the future is now in other words i don't want to draft guys and spend five years developing them i want to win right now when he went to washington he basically traded away entire drafts to bring in veteran players draft picks were valuable commodities in order to get players to help you win which everybody thought there was tremendous risk involved but look at the success that he had him he took the redskins and in two years had them winning and the year after that he had him in a super bowl so a lot of teams thought if he can do that we can do that 40 men together can't lose but you could see you had to be as smart as george allen to make it work the houston oilers of the day were apparently not that smart if you think for one damn minute i'm going to take a loss standing down you just have another thought for coming the proof was in their 1-13 record in both 1972 and 73 and in their personnel decisions leading up to the 1974 draft the oilers traded their first round pick and their third round pick to the cowboys for two players named tony smith and billy parks toady smith was a big guy who was the brother of bubba smith but really hadn't established himself as anything other than the brother of bubba smith and you had billy parks who was a nice little receiver but was not a difference-making kind of receiver it certainly wasn't you're talking about lance allworth here the oilers were really down they needed players yeah but that's not the kind of help you're talking about you need top of the draft players that are really going to come in and make a significant difference not spare parts which is basically what the cowboys offered and they got the first pick of the draft and of course the pick was traded not no one necessarily was going to be the first pick of the year ever wounded up being that it was a classic piece of the cowboys being smarter than the other guy gil brandt of the cowboys built his reputation on finding out everything he possibly could against a guy well beyond what he did on the field since their days as a struggling expansion team a decade earlier the dallas brain trust had embraced technology off the field to improve the cowboys performance on it in doing so the franchise of gil brandt had become known in league circles as the computer cowboys we have a complete file we think on just about everybody that's ever played we actually trace football players right from actual game condition it's very important that it's from actual game conditions since in a laboratory condition outlets behave different the man is also very important gilbran how are you good to see you did a good job out there practice today if you don't put good information in the computer the computer cannot give you good results i don't think they had a cookie-cutter mold of saying this is the type of guy we got to have to play this position the number one thing was bring me an athlete and we can teach them to play football in this way dallas was an exception to the nfl's conventional approach to the draft though by 1974 they were not the only exception well the steelers certainly did not build through the draft they deconstructed through the draft they traded all the draft picks away in the 60s chuck noll came in in 69 i said we're not trading away draft picks anymore we're going to build through the draft clearly in stark contrast to what the washington redskins were doing at that time trading for veteran players the steelers in 72 had that lost barely in the afc championship game to an undefeated miami team and in 73 they made the playoffs but they lost so they went looking to upgrade themselves in the 74 draft they were right there okay take one this is the voice around the nfl draft commissioner pete rozelle read off the draft choices the first one going to the cowboys because of a trade with houston the dallas cowboys selection ed jones defensive end tennessee state using the number one overall pick on a defensive player from a division ii football program was an audacious move even for the computer cowboys the cowboys in the 70s had established themselves as one of the top franchises in the league they did it by being bold you know and not doing things the way everybody else did them we shocked everybody when we took ed jones from tennessee state because none of the draft experts had him ranked at all i was the first division two player ever drafted number one overall due in that area number one picks were from number one division one schools number two quarterbacks or running backs a lot of people didn't know about him in college but obviously nfl teams did and he had an excellent east-west shrine game he had really established himself in the off-season jones height made him distinctive and so did the nickname he earned in college first day at practice i walked into the equipment room the longest pair of pants that the equipment manager had hit me above my knees so i walk on the field i don't remember which player it was [Music] said hey you know you're too tall for football they all got a big kick out of it and when i walked into the dining room that evening for dinner i heard one of them in the background so that's too tall and it stuck dallas head coach tom landry saw a world of possibility in the unproven but athletically gifted jones he said i don't draft players for positions i draft the best player he said you were the best player in in that college rail he said i knew i'd find a place for you to play he said that's the way i dream jones was a versatile athlete who excelled in several sports football wasn't even his first love box is my favorite sport i fought golden gloves in high school my first fight i knocked my opponent out which i think is still a record in 37 seconds [Music] tennessee state was a small college that came up big in the 1974 draft they were really really good players at some of these smaller schools they just weren't as well known but what changed in 1974 was that teams were willing to start drafting those players higher on the first round cincinnati selects bill caller defensive tackle montana state barty smith fullback richmond donald reese defensive end jackson state as a kid growing up you know you almost felt you had to go to a big school you had to go to one of the football youths to get a fair chance at trying to make it at the next level the 1974 draft saw low-profile programs gain in stature but big time college football still dominated the selection process [Music] ucla led all schools with 12 picks powerhouse penn state boasted running back john capoletti the country's most famous college player in 1973 he won the heisman trophy after leading the nittany lions to an undefeated season [Applause] all across america people knew the dramatic story of john's close bond with his terminally ill brother joey joey capillary the youngest member of my family joseph is uh very ill he has leukemia and if i can dedicate this trophy to him tonight and give him a couple days of happiness this is worth everything the heisman winners 1973 season was full of inspiration and hope bob do you have any quarrel with the choice of john capuletti i should say not i've been uh just watching his progress all year i like the way he talks and i gotta buy some of those humble pills capiletti's appealing personality was a given but his chance for nfl success was a question mark he wasn't the guy really we cared to draft just wasn't a blazer just didn't have that speed that we thought that we would want for our football team all right this this is simply a repeat of a previous announcement simply a repeat los angeles rams select john capoletti running back penn state the rams didn't really need a running back they already ran the ball as well as anybody in the national football league why are they taking john capolini the short answer is because the nfl back then was so different in terms of offensive orientation it was very much a running game so teams have the idea that you can never have too many running backs eleventh overall pick john capiletti had the biggest name in college football two tall jones had the tallest frame billy johnson had neither unheralded and undersized johnson played wide receiver at division three widener university at five feet nine inches johnson didn't fit the nfl mold he's too small and you know he's from widener get to round 15 the houston oilers took billy johnson what we found out was he wasn't too small over 14 nfl seasons johnson was an effective offensive weapon who also became one of the greatest return specialists in the history of the game [Applause] that's one of the things that i always remember about that draft was sometimes you have to just trust your instincts how tall a guy is or how much he weighs how big a school he played at at a certain point that doesn't matter a guy can either play or he can't play and sometimes you can just judge that by watching them and anybody that has seen billy johnson play knew this guy had remarkable talent [Music] at every nfl draft mysteries about which player will be selected when are typical [Music] questions about which team will select when or not so when it became clear that no one knew the true owner of the 20th pick in the first round in 1974 chaos ensued the mess began because of washington's second round pick in 74 which prior to the draft the redskins had dealt to the rams the problem with that was that a year earlier washington had already traded the very same pick their second choice in 74 to the new york jets not until the eve of the 74 draft did anyone realize that the pick la had gotten from washington wasn't really washington's to give [Music] you know the way they used to keep track of draft picks in a 17 round draft was uh we'll call it archaic and uh when you're on a phone call late at night that sometimes traded the same pick twice george made the trip such a farce that it was it was almost like people just didn't pay attention like george is just he's just trading his whole draft again so nobody really did the accounting as they should have done i mean he was a guy that was really smart and i don't want to say unscrupulous but nothing was sacred with him and when somebody would call him on it he would profess that i had no idea really there was a league's duty at the time to actually track the draft picks it wasn't so much on the teams because when you're making trades there's no way to know exactly who has what the next choice is the san francisco 49ers on a selection previously acquired through trade from the new england patriots but pete rozelle was friends with the rams and he decided to punish my dad you have to keep pushing george allen's claim that he'd made an honest mistake was not helped by the fact that he made the same honest mistake years earlier when he was coaching the rams and had traded one of their picks away twice so in 1974 pete roselle punished allen's repeat offense by finding the redskins 5 000 and awarding their first round pick to los angeles who traded it to the bears chicago bears in the first round select dave gallagher defensive lineman michigan the way that draft choices are viewed as precious today that was not a consensus position held by everybody in pro football in those days it had gotten to a few places but it hadn't gotten everywhere yet chuck known besides wanting to build through the draft one of his other edicts was we will find the best athletes out there and some of the great athletes of the day were playing at these small black colleges it doesn't matter to us where our prospect is as you know we have quite a few prospects from smaller schools john stalworth from alabama a m he didn't have a great 40 time but bill nunn recognized he's not going to be running on as good of a surface as the guy from ohio state who might have a tenth of a second faster time and you look at the great players from small colleges joe green to dwight white mel blunt they were able to find players that fit all over the country a 10th round choice from arkansas a m n from texas southern from east texas state from north texas state four young men from tiny southern colleges not to take anything away from dick haley and some of their other scouts that they had but uh he was the big influence into the black colleges that helped build that football team in fact i used to try to follow bill ryan sometimes it was hard to get film bill knew how to get the film in the case of stallworth there was like one can of film bill had instructions from the coach just keeping a weakness in someone else every time you walk by the film room they were watching with the coaches they were watching themselves i think my dad was in there watching it with them and we never sent it to anyone he said i mean this worked out perfectly stalwart you see he knew a little bit more probably than we did and that was probably a factor in one of the greatest drafts of all time [Music] there was no shortage of information when it came to other receivers in the 74 draft particularly lynn swann whose skill and charisma at usc had captured the attention of the pro football world i like to think of myself as a true competitor and there's no more competition in the field than returning a point when it's you and at least nine guys that you have to get away from you know mostly by yourself pittsburgh up chuck loved john stalworth but he went to alabama a m one of those small black schools lynn swann he went to southern cal everybody knew who lin swan was everybody knew lin swan was gonna be a first round pick as the steelers internal debate continued it appeared their discord on selecting a big school or small school receiver might cause pittsburgh selection time to expire thus giving the cowboys the chance to jump in front of them in line dallas prepared accordingly filling out an index card with the player it wanted and racing to the podium had only a few more seconds passed dallas would have taken the 20th pick before pittsburgh could instead after 14 minutes and 55 seconds of their 15-minute selection time the steelers made a decision pittsburgh on the first round selects lynne swann wide receiver southern california the scouts none are rooney junior haley all of them convinced chuck swann would be gone if they didn't take him in the first round stallworth would still be there and as it turned out they played it perfectly the dallas cowboys were up next in the draft and they were all set to take lin swan which is really a delicious part of the whole steeler cowboy rivalry as it plays out over the rest of the decade because how many big plays did lin swan make against the cowboys over the years the race for swan at 20th overall may have been an early flashpoint in the eventual pittsburgh dallas rivalry but it would prove to be just one part of the steelers historic performance in the 1974 draft in 1974 for in-depth draft coverage there was essentially none people talk about draft previews there were no draft previews it was hard enough to find draft reviews it was frustrating because it was just a lack of information out there about the nfl draft which certainly from the time i remember being six seven eight years old what i had an interest in because that's the only way you could improve your football team from year to year well in 1974 you don't have the fanaticism about the draft yet but what you have is this amateur subculture of draft freaks who put out their own lists of draft rankings and that kind of thing this is how i would start before the season would go i would break down by positions name height weight in college and sometimes i put little notes after them speed or lacking speed or something like that when i got out of law schools just started doing that as a hobby it was fascinating to see how teams drafted players where mistakes were made my brother carl was doing similar stuff we put it together and that kind of got people's attention pete and carl marasco were in pro football weekly that started bringing the draft to more people they were sort of kuiper before kuiper yeah the marasco brothers you back and the scouting players for the nfl and then gave you something you couldn't get anywhere else which was an evaluation of players and an opinion on players somebody that you looked up to at that particular time and said wait they get it there's going to be misses there's going to be a lot of good hits there's going to be some misses but that was the same as the pro teams finally a fellow from the new york times noticed that he wrote about it not only did it enhance the interest of people in the draft it then spurred other people to think oh that's oh i can do that his wife ria there's a guy in florida palmer's youth use thumbnail scouting reports feed the appetites of thousands of hungry draft enthusiasts the tools of his trade are a powerful television antenna a battered arm chair a much-watched tv set and a cubbyhole of an office where he compiles his reports what i try to do is actually pick the draft the way the pro teams do it but i try to do it on my own and by myself if somebody said i was a renegade they would be right there was a guy in cincinnati uh who put out the drugstore list jerry jones not the jerry jones it was by a pharmacist and he was a big time draft nerd my earliest years covering the nfl i would always used to think man get a life and so in the 70s that built up and it led to mel kiper and created what it is today where pretty much everybody thinks they're a draft expert perhaps no single evaluator of talent in the nfl of 1974 believed more strongly in his own expertise than renegade owner al davis he opted to have his raider personnel do all their own player grading at a time when most nfl teams were part of cooperative scouting services blesto bears lions eagle steelers that's blessed though sipo was central eastern personnel organization they were scouting combines that was part of the mystique of the raiders we we refused to be part of that i always wanted to belong to a combine because i wanted to get as much information on a player as i could but mr davis when i was working there you get the information that's your job don't worry about somebody else's information al trusted his own ability to pick players and find talent alice was a really good coach before he became an owner the great rivalries continue and he could look at a player and decide whether this guy could play or whether he couldn't play more specifically could he play for me just when david they had a scouting network that went everywhere there was a story that someone claimed that they went to the dark side of africa the only non-natives they found there were two missionaries and a scout from the oakland raiders um there may be some truth to that they made decisions based upon intelligence as well as uh you know the 40 times you know i was never timed in the 40 with the raiders they would i had hamstring problems they didn't want to time us they could tell in the practice if you could run fast enough but they also had to know where you're going to make a mental error so it was part of their system in the raiders school of player grading dave casper scored high marks even while some of his numbers were not the most impressive he wasn't the fastest of guys he's like a 4-7 but he was one of those guys knew how to get open [Music] pound 240-pound dave casper was a massive spark plug of the irish offense he had a reputation for not being the most coachable guy there are some questions about how committed he was to football but you know al davis was a guy that was not afraid to take chances on someone many other teams probably wouldn't have picked him in the second round but that's a perfect example of the raiders identifying what they wanted for their team and he being a perfect fit for years the raiders had been colliding with the steelers in the battle for afc supremacy but off the field especially as it concerned finding the right players for their systems oakland and pittsburgh were philosophically in sync that was proven by both the dave casper pick in the second round and with the steelers pick that followed it pittsburgh was looking for a new middle linebacker but they needed more than a new player they needed a new kind of player one who could both support the run near the line of scrimmage and drop into deep zone pass coverage in pittsburgh's new cover 2 scheme art rooney jr went over to kent state once and they were practicing on some gravel and he saw a skinny kid dive head first to make a tackle and he says that's one tough guy there weigh 208 pounds swear 208 pounds how's he going to play linebacker in the national football league with the 46 overall pick the steelers passed on bigger players with bigger names like linebacker matt blair in favor of the tall lanky kent state golden flash who fit pittsburgh's new profile of a middle linebacker he could drop into pass coverage so tight ends going across the middle he could cover them and he was tough enough to make the tackles that a middle linebacker should make so i don't think there was really a debate when they drafted jack lambert other than chuck still wanted john stalwin after taking jack lambert in the second round the steelers had no pick in the third but when their turn came up in the fourth round the player chuck noll coveted was still available so the steelers drafted receiver john stalworth before looking to the trenches in the fifth round with the selection of a center from tomahawk wisconsin named mike webster in terms of building a team that was going to be a perennial contender year in and year out the steelers were truly the model of the 70s and there's a couple things that work there one is appreciating the value of those draft choices and two is knowing how to fit those players into your own system [Music] what kind of contract did you get i'm not in i'm not in the liberty to discuss my contract out here the giants were satisfied and they felt that we both felt that it was an adequate deal you have a dollar figure in mind no i didn't even talk to anybody yet i just want to get reimbursed for the trip up here right now [Laughter] in 1974 draft picks who didn't like the money they were offered or the teams that selected them had few options but that situation was about to change the nfl since merging with the old afl hasn't had any competition to worry about except for a few players who struggle to the canadian league but even some of them eventually come back home this year though there's a serious challenge for talent coming from the world football league the world football league had 12 teams and announced a 20-game schedule to begin in the summer of 1974. commissioner do you think there's going to be any so-called price war between the new league and the nfl what it will come to is after our selection meeting and then when the world football league continues their draft uh we'll just see what happens during the bidding for the playing talent there's one thing the nfl had thought it ended some years ago and they merged with the old afl but now with the wfl here we go again the wfl held a rookie draft one week before the nfl did players picked by both leagues had newfound leverage guard tom condon the chief's 10th round pick from boston college used the wfl to squeeze more money out of the tight-fisted nfl team that drafted him hank stram offered me two thousand dollars to sign in a fourteen thousand dollar base salary and when he asked me what i thought about that i said well z coach i said it doesn't sound that good and he said really and he had a book on his desk and he opened up the book and put his glasses on and he said what round were you drafted in and of course he knew and i said the 10th and he flipped through the pages and he stopped and he looked up and said we've never had a 10th round draft choice make our football team said as far as i'm concerned son i've just offered you two thousand dollars for a summer job and boom he slams the book shut i got drafted by the boston bulls of the wfl and they offered me a 30 000 completely guaranteed contract and so i called hank stram up my first you know individual negotiation i didn't have an agent and i said coach thank you for everything you've done and as nice as you've been to me um but i'm gonna go play uh for a 30 000 completely guaranteed contract with the with the boston bulls after i went through my spiel about the boston bulls he said what kind of a signing bonus would it take for you to stay here and i hadn't given this any thought at all so i just blurted out a number that i thought was outrageous and i said ten thousand dollars and he said what about the base salary and i said 18 and he said done arizona state quarterback danny white was drafted in the third round by dallas but opted to sign with the wfl's memphis southman white was the first quarterback taken in an nfl draft short on quality passers to the best of our knowledge this is the first time that a quarterback was not chosen in the first round every once in a while you'll have a draft year where you're just on quarterbacks there 74 you kind of came up empty danny white was probably the best quarterback in that draft after him in the third round you had guys like david james and kim mcquilkin and gary marangi i'm sure these are names that probably haven't been mentioned on tv since their nfl career white earned valuable experience in the rival league and twice as much money as the cowboys it offered him but the wfl was spurned by the majority of players it had drafted i was drafted by the birmingham americans in the first round and honestly i never really considered it because ever since i could remember watching games on television i wanted to play in the national football league the wfl would fold midway through its second season but its birth made an immediate impact on the nfl's status quo the free spending upstarts threw a light on the more established league's stagnant salary structure in this regard the wfl influenced the nfl players association strike of july 1974. the strike proved beneficial to that year's rookie class but not in a financial sense twice a day the rookies are bussed onto the green bay packer practice field past the two or three striking veterans who are assigned to picket duty for the day this has been going on for three weeks now we had a lot of rookies make that team that year it gave us a chance to get in and and get more coaching get more teaching get more training before the veterans came in the owners say they'll play out their schedule even if they have to use only their rookies and the handful of veterans who have crossed the picket line the strike certainly helped me from a competitive standpoint in that i got to be there for at least a month with all of the rookies and free agents and i was doing pretty well so it gave me some experience and a little bit of confidence and of course i got some really good coaching tom condon played for 12 seasons and stands as an object lesson in the inexact science of drafting 21 guards were selected ahead of the 250th overall pick only one of them had a career that lasted as long as condons did condon became a prime mover in a player's union that would take a more activist posture in the years to come they feel that we uh exercised our our as far as we could our symbolic gestures and it's time to take that kind of stronger action today the rookie who haggled with hank stram is a powerful sports agent condon represents some of pro football's biggest names his career success is one of the lasting legacies of the 1974 draft this is the second longest first round since the draft became combined in 1967 finished three hours and 45 minutes and the 1974 draft still had 16 more rounds remaining as baseball hall of famer yogi berra once said it ain't over till it's over as if to prove that point yogi's son tim bera a wide receiver from umass was taken in round 17 by baltimore the eventual end of the 1974 draft marked the beginning of nfl careers six nine 265 pound ed too tall jones the nfl's number one draft choice from tennessee state like every number one jones was a marked man whose imposing talents came under the critical focus of many eyes when you look at the players who were taken i don't know that you would say oh i can't believe that two tall jones went first this guy should have been because when you look at it he had one of the better careers of anyone there ed tootol jones enjoyed a productive career in dallas [Music] in 1979 he quit football to pursue his favorite sport professional boxing if i didn't think i had the talent potential to be a heavyweight champion i would be fighting so you're not going back at all no i definitely won't go back to football jones won all six of his bouts then returned to the cowboys in 1980 he played for 10 more seasons 15 in all [Music] the cowboys 1974 draft also paid dividends over time dallas retained the rights to danny white who joined the team in 1976. four seasons later he became the starting quarterback after roger staubach retired [Applause] white led the cowboys to three consecutive nfc championship games [Music] by the time white took over as starter the nfl had become a passing league but when white was drafted in 1974 it was all about running and defense new york jets first round selection carl barcelos defensive tackle indiana bill sanderfer defensive tackle ucla commissioner there seems to be a look for the defensive man the line man lately in football is this a trend that you seem to see also well i think many coaches are identifying success with very strong defenses and i think that they also feel perhaps that outstanding college defensive players are more apt to hold their form in pro ball than an offensive player and yet you did see an outstanding offensive back going on this second pick here today bo matthews of colorado to san diego beau matthews was the first of 76 running backs caught in the draft matthew's eight-year nfl career was spent as a backup ball carrier john capiletti's heart and work ethic kept him in the league for nine seasons but like many heisman trophy winners capiletti never attained the level of stardom he had enjoyed at the collegiate level john people say that there's a jinx with heisman trophy winners do you agree people put a stigma on it because you know you're almost a loser if you don't make it after you win a heisman trophy and i don't think that's fair because you know you want it because of a college career university of florida halfback nat moore was drafted in the third round by the dolphins but miami took more with the intention of turning him into a wide receiver [Music] you going to think about how scary it is to switch positions and in those days there were no guaranteed contracts you got to make the team so i've got to learn a new position and make the team moore went on to become one of the most prolific past catchers in franchise history ray rhodes was another draft choice who switched positions the giant's 10th round selection from tulsa began his nfl career as a wide receiver in 1977 rhodes switched to cornerback after his playing career ended he became a successful defensive coordinator and head coach and today we had to go out and show people that they can't guarantee anything but death and taxes that's always guaranteed another eventual nfl head coach dave wanstadt was a 15th round draft choice of the packers he never played in the nfl five hall of famers including oakland tight and dave casper emerged from the 1974 draft casper is the only one of the five hall of famers from the 1974 draft who didn't play for the pittsburgh steelers i think that the 74 draft will be remembered mostly for what it did for the pittsburgh steelers the steelers getting four hall of famers out of that draft especially when there are only five hall of famers in the entire trip it's unbelievable because really when you think of the probability of it that's that's like winning powerball i can't think of another draft where anybody had that kind of a hall that you come away with lambert swann stalworth webster in 1974 pittsburgh's rookies contributed to a 10-3-1 regular season record that catapulted the team to its first ever super bowl victory the steelers would win three more lombardi trophies before the decade ended bradshaw pumping firing down there goes stallworth he pulls it in at the three the twenty lambert's walking by here's harris telling him something and grabs the kicker and lambert at 6'5 works him over i think it's not just the greatest draft by any team in the history of the nfl i think it's the greatest draft by any team in history professional sports the pittsburgh steelers are the champions of the national football league for the fourth time by building a dynasty through the draft the steelers ensured that the prevailing philosophy of the future is now could be relegated to the past the future of the draft itself was tied to the growth of cable television and an insatiable appetite for all things nfl the event as it was staged in 1974 was destined to become like disco music the amc gremlin and wide lapels a relic of the times whether or not the nfl and afc or the fc and he you
