"Professional football in America is a special game, a unique game, played no where else on Earth, it is a rare game. The men who play it make it so. Pro football is a mirror of early America reflecting toughness, courage and self-denial. The game is wide-open, not confined. X's and O's on a blackboard are translated into imagination on the field. It can be one man rising above the obscurity of the grim, no glory duty of the special teams, it is the lineman clawing through the carnage of the scrimmage line and devouring the quarterback. The game is perpetual motion, a swirl of flying bodies and constant collision. A two and a half hour carnival of color, sound and action. There's glory in the legends of this hard muscled life, and there's poetry in each season made of sweat and strife. But now is the time is to work and strain at a sport to test the spirit and stress the brain. Do you hear the force of the wind and the slash of the rain, go face them and fight them. Be salvageable. A time for achievement, a time for purpose, a time for glory."-NFL Films, "The Power and the Glory"
