Product Description
Formed in 1967, the NFL's Central Division, made up of the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Detroit Lions, and Minnesota Vikings, quickly earned the nickname “Black and Blue Division” due to the teams' fierce, physical play. Through the years, many of the toughest men in pro football have played in the Black and Blue — from Butkus to Nitschke, Eller to Spielman, Favre to Singletary to Karras to the Purple People Eaters. Now known as the NFC North, the rivals still battle each other twice a year, celebrating their 40th season together in 2006. Black and Blue celebrates along with them, recalling the great plays and players, the memorable seasons, and the crucial games through first-hand interviews with players and coaches and first-rate photography. Capsule summaries of every game played in the division make this an essential reference for every football fan.
Reader Reviews
Picked this up at the card show and I wasn't able to put it down. What a great, and long overdue, idea to write about storied franchises such as Green Bay and Chicago. The history on the early years of the Black And Blue was fascinating, and I am sure there will be many discussions (arguments) over the members of the All-Time Black And Blue Teams. If you are a pro footbal fan you have to read this book, even if it's the only book you read all year. It's that good!
