Bronko Nagurski 1934 clip

Look for #3 in the dark unis. The away team = Giants. In those days the officials ran too close to the action. It looks like the ref is almost blocking, he's so close.
 
I see a lot of guys in that clip who are very cerebral and bring the lunch pail everyday. Not too many gifted athletes who are surprisingly well-spoken though
 
I think Irish likes anybody with huge hips.

The field was frozen, and at halftime the Giants switched to basketball, converse-like shoes from cleats, and came roaring back to win.

The game still looks about the same now as then, but faster. If you watch carefully there is some sloppy tackling on Nagurski. Arm tackling, no arms-tackling, huge holes. Nagurski and Csonka had a lot in common.
 
How many stars was Bronko rated out of high school?

He was only a 2*, much like Stan Empterman... a definite diamond in the rough.
