Posted same time haha. Looking forward to this.

Rock paper scissors for the NNT since it was already posted by one of you.

This looks awesome, can't wait! Thanks to both of you for the info.

fricken love this show...can't wait to see Riggo

It was inevitable.

Yup, really looking forward to this one. One of the biggest characters to ever play for us.

Already set to record on the DVR

I will definitely be DVRing this!

Saw that Wednesday night. Set the DVR since I'm going to be in Florida. I love this series. I watched all of them last year and the only 2 I haven't watched is the "Tebow" episode (didn't want to watch it) and the 1995 Cleveland Browns (I really wanted to see that one and missed it.).

I liked the ones last year on Tom Landry, Walter Payton and Bill Belichick. I liked the Fearsome Foursome from this year. I also have the last 3 on the DVR that I'll watch this weekend (Lewis, Jimmy Johnson and Speilman).

This will be a great way to kickoff the Thanksgiving weekend and the Dallas game. I will definitely be drinking... no doubt that it will be entertaining.

EDIT: My liscense plates in Alaska were "70 CHIP," and I still have them since moving back to VA a few years ago. I was surprised that quite a few people would roll there window down at a stop light and comment to me on the plates.

A nice treat to watch the night before Thanksgiving.

The NFL does a lot of things wrong... But NFL Films isn't one of them. I swear, other than the Redskins, that is the biggest reason I love football so much.

The Jimmy Johnson one was fantastic. The best one so far in my opinion.

the trailer I saw during the game last night said "after 62 years he has finally found peace".......really? I think he is still as full of piss and vinegar as ever. Love some 44 and can't wait to see the show.

THE greatest Redskins running back ever.

Portis couldn't hold Riggos jock strap. :evilg:

I've been waiting for them to do one involving a Skins player! Can't wait to watch this! Got the DVR set and like some have said, it's a great way to kick off Thanksgiving weekend! I wonder if they would ever do one of these involving the life of Sean Taylor, I know his number of seasons was a small sample but that would be pretty cool

Here's the link to a 12 minute teaser.

Thanks for the preview, ill add to original post.

Normally I don't watch AFBL but now seems like a good time to start.

Couldn't agree more. A football life is a great show. The work they do is incredible.

Why would you not watch these? They are all wonderful.

Thanks for the heads up guys.

DVR is set.

It has been close to 30 years but I got chills more than once watching that 12 minute preview. The Dallas highlights and of course "He's gone, he's gone"

Tonight! Can't wait! Saw an article about Riggo this year, he said he doesn't follow football anymore, has never heard of Alfred Morris, and is focused on his new hunting show...LOL

Looking forward to this immensely. The Diesel was without question my favorite player growing up. I have to work though so I set the DVR. Will watch it when I get home.
