You gotta love Joe Kapp -- I don't care who you are. You gotta love John Facenda -- "The voice of God"... To this day NFL films has yet to find a suitable voice since Facenda's passing. Kapp had the "it" factor. What a dynamic leader! The man was truly all about team. The way he turned down the MVP award is so inspiring and admirabable.

And most of the great music used by NFL films was written by one man, for them, Samuel Lloyd Spence. Who passed away just recently. This music is available on CD as well. How can you listen to this music and not think of Joe Kapp rumbling thru the snow or the Green Bay Packers lining up on the frozen tundra aka Lambeau Field. And John Facenda's elaquint, dramatic voice. You just can't, impossible.

I'm still messed up over Super Bowl 4. It was my first time, being interested in football, and I chose the Vikings, because my friend routed for the Rams.Still can't believe how they folded in that game.

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

+OneandOnly I don't think they folded. But they certainly were not well prepared for that game. Kansas City's Wide open offense and multiple formations and shifts were things that they had never had to deal with. That and a bevy of dropped passes, fumbles, missed tackles and ill timed penalties are what did them in. They got revenge by easily beating the Chiefs on opening day 1970 though. Of course Joe wasn't there.

[@oneandonly3037]

To this day, I wish Joe was there.

[@bbigjohnson069]

I heard him say that he said it to Dick Butkus. Butkus makes more sense since he would be right in front of him. Deacon was a DE

[@bbigjohnson069]

Rams folded against Minnesota in the 2nd half. They were up 17-7. I think Allen burned them out that year. They were 11-0 lost the last 3, got shut out and then tank at Minnesota. KC was clearly a better team than Minn. The Rams and Minnesota are closer to even than with KC.

He was traded by the BC Lions, to the Minnesota Vikings for Jim Young. Like Joe Kapp, Jim Young is a CFL Hall of Famer. "Before the 1967 CFL season, Kapp made the decision to return to the U.S. to play pro football. The AFL's Oakland Raiders, San Diego Chargers, and Houston Oilers were heavily pursuing him. Kapp ended up signing with the NFL's Minnesota Vikings in a multi-player "trade" between the CFL and NFL teams, one of the very few transactions to ever occur between the two leagues."

Randy, FANTASTIC job of getting these older clips of the Vikings. I remember they aired this 'More than a Game" special during the summer of 1970 in August where they highlighted 4 individuals, Kapp, Dick Butkus, Coach Lou Saban, and it ended with DE Willie Davis of the Packers. There's ONE production NFL films put together with John Facenda narrating the NFL Title Game between the Vikings/Browns in 1969. It aired only once during the summer of 1970 and have yet to locate it anywhere. Unlike it's counterpart film you have uploaded of the 1969 Chiefs/Raiders title game, I think this ran for only 30 minutes thus would be 24 minutes long? ALSO in the 1970 season during the NFL on CBS pregame hosted by Frank Gifford (this was the year before he became part of MNF) they would run these 5-7 minute features, this one focused upon the battle in the pit between All-Pro's Carl Eller and the Rams right tackle, Bob Brown, with some insanely interesting shots of the line play that took place between the two of them during the Western Conference playoff game the previous year and in the mud bowl during the first MNF game the Vikings were in at the Met - Facenda narrated this one as well. Both of these clips featured vintage Sam Spence music, just perfect material. If you can possibly locate either of these films, you will be defined as the NFL films video God of all time! Great job there buddy! :-)
