A SPECIAL ABC TV BROADCAST which looks at the world of pro football from the 13th century, when Britons used the skulls of Danish pirates as footballs, to today's violent and complex game. Archival films show early stars like Jim Thorp, Red Grange and Sammy Baugh; how teams create strategy; how players are scouted and how retired greats like Y.A. Tittle pass on their skills to young players. Also covered: life in a pro training camp, and highlights of an exhibition game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Cleveland Browns. NOTE: A David L. Wolper production, directed by William Friedkin, hat the beginning of his career, who had yet to direct a theatrical motion picture. Van Heflin narrates.
