Chazberg Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 I'm gonna go ahead and guess it's a black armband to commemorate a death in the organization. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Great video. Piles of snow line the sidelines, everybody's bundled up, players slide on ice in the end zone, and the announcer says "A December day... it is Viking Weather."Oh, how things change....

MarkAtnip Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Great video. Piles of snow line the sidelines, everybody's bundled up, players slide on ice in the end zone, and the announcer says "A December day... it is Viking Weather."Oh, how things change....Not to mention the giant shoulder stripes on the Eagles uniforms, the variations of stripe width on the socks, (probably because there are players wearing multiple pairs) the variety of facemasks and the sleeves on the jerseys. Are there places other than youtube where vintage NFL game clips are available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leopard88 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Great video. Piles of snow line the sidelines, everybody's bundled up, players slide on ice in the end zone, and the announcer says "A December day... it is Viking Weather."Oh, how things change....Agreed. There would be something wrong with seeing a slow motion shot of Alan Page, Jim Marshall and Carl Eller staring across the line of scrimmage in the Metrodome.

smith03 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 The armband was for Jacko Nelson an assistant coach who died during the seaon of I believe a heart attack near the end of the 1978 season. Just say NO to gray facemasks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirwuf Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 ...check out the lack of celebrations after the touchdowns, not so much as a spike...todays players go nuts when they get a first down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leedsunited Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 OMG, that clip was beautiful in every single way. Classic unis, outdoor Viking football, SNOW on the sidelines, composed TV announcers, no stupid on-screen scoreboards and assorted gimmickry. It really makes me want to cry.

BlueSky Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Thanks for posting that. Good times.I will never understand why teams like the Vikings give up an enormous home-field advantage by playing in a dome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickV Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Damn those Viking unis are beautiful. What a shame. Minnesota Vikings football in the snow, ahhhh, I'm getting misty too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
