The National Forgotten League: Entertaining Stories and Observations from Pro Football's First Fifty YearsThe first fifty years of America's most popular spectator sport have been strangely neglected by historians claiming to tell the "complete story" of pro football. Well, here are the early stories that "complete story" has left out. What about the awful secret carried around by Sid Luckman, the Bears' Hall of Fame quarterback whose father was a mobster and a murderer?

The first fifty years of America's most popular spectator sport have been strangely neglected by historians claiming to tell the "complete story" of pro football. Well, here are the early stories that "complete story" has left out. What about the awful secret carried around by Sid Luckman, the Bears' Hall of Fame quarterback whose father was a mobster and a murderer? Or Steve Hamas, who briefly played in the NFL then turned to boxing and beat Max Schmeling, conqueror of Joe Louis? Or the two one-armed players who suited up for NFL teams in 1945? Or Steelers owner Art Rooney postponing a game in 1938 because of injuries? These are just a few of the little-known facts Dan Daly unearths in recounting the untold history of pro football in its first half century. These decades were also full of ideas and experimentation, such as the invention of the modern T formation that revolutionized offense, unlimited player substitution, and soccer-style kicking, as well as the emergence of televised pro football as prime-time entertainment. Relying on obscure sources, original interviews, old game films and statistical databases, Daly's extensive research and engaging stories bring the NFL's formative years--and pro football's folk roots--to life.Binding Type: Paperback

Extra fine glitter
Color: Gold
Extremely fine. I plan on adding it to my spf body oil. Hoping it doesn’t clog the line but I absolutely love this! The pump is so cute. I love that it’s glass. I know there are cuter ones online so you could just get this for the glitter and put it into another one that’s more ornate. It’s just so much fun. Buy it now

Perfect
I love it. It fits perfectly in my pocket book, love the color of the sparkles. Not itchy, it keeps me glowing all night long, not oily or sticky. I like the feeling and functional of it.

Gorgeous
Color: Gold
This is literally Tinkerbells best kept secret. I’ve never seen a cuter bottle or a better
Spray. Accidentally leaves a hint of shine behind no matter where you go.

Nice but fragile.
Glitter was nice until it dropped out of my hand onto my vanity 1 foot and the plastic snapped off the bulb. Fake metal.
