Notes
General Note
Kings ransom (51 min.): On August 9, 1988, the NHL was forever changed with the single stroke of a pen. The Edmonton Oilers, fresh off their fourth Stanley Cup victory in five years, signed a deal that sent Wayne Gretzky, a Canadian national treasure and the greatest hockey player ever to play the game, to the Los Angeles Kings in a multi-player, multi-million dollar deal.
General Note
Band that wouldn't die (53 min.): In March of 1984, a moving company secretly packed up the Baltimore Colt's belongings and snuck off in the early morning, leaving a city of devoted fans in shock and disbelief. The Colts were an integral part of the city, and fans struggled to cope with losing the team they loved. For 12 years the city was without an NFL team, but the band continued to play, acting as musical ambassadors for the city, keeping football alive until the NFL returned. Includes director's statements, and more.
General Note
Small potatoes : who killed the USFL? (51 min.): In 1986, the upstart United States Football League had the audacity to challenge the almighty NFL, signing three straight Heisman Trophy winners and future NFL stars Steve Young, Reggie White, and Doug Flutie. In its inaugural season, the 12-team league played before crowds that averaged 25,000 and garnered respectable TV ratings, winning over new fans with its aura of fun and flamboyance.
