They were known as Frank Gifford, Sam Huff and Charlie Conerly echoes from the glorious Golden Age memories of what-they’d-been. The gloomy reminders of what-they’d-become appeared in the forms of Rocky Thompson, Craig Morton and Joe Pisarcik. Those apparitions periodically manifested themselves in the cruelest forms: deflected passes landing in the arms of opposing defensive linemen who return them for touchdowns and whiffed punts.

Interviews with former NY Giants coach Bill Parcells, linebacker Lawrence Taylor, and quarterback Phil Simms are among the highlights on this NFL-sponsered program.
