I enjoyed this 5 dvd set of the Steelers.On each dvd you have 3 or 4 steelers(Andy Russell,Franco Harris,Joe Greene,Lynn Swan,Dwight White,Mike Wagner,Randy Grossman,Rocky Bleier,Mel Blount,John Banaszak,John Stallworth,L.C.Greenwood,Jerome Bettis,Joey Porter,Bill Cowher) talking about that year and some of the games as you watch some game footage.Each dvd has a few extras.These dvd's are fun and enjoyable to watch.Each dvd comes in nice slim case with a picture of that years Super Bowl ring on the front.The back has pictures of the Steelers interviewed on that dvd.All 5 dvd's come in a nice box you see pictured on Amazon. This is a nice edition to the Steeler dvd's I already have.If you are an old Steeler fan like me I think you will enjoy this box set.

NFL: America's Game: New York Giants Review

Steve Sabol is head of NFL Films and over the years, he has put together some incredible documentaries. But I think NFL Films' series America's Game, which debuted on NFL Network last year, could be the best thing they've ever done.
Each set recounts the story behind each team's championship season. In this case, the set collects the America's Game docs for the 1986 and 1990 New York Giants. Each documentary is narrated (the '86 documentary is done by Laurence Fishbourne and the '90 documentary is done by Alec Baldwin) and features insight from three integral coaches and players. Head Coach Bill Parcells, QB Phil Simms, and LB Lawrence Taylor are interviewed for the '86 season. The '90 season features QB Jeff Hostetler, LB Carl Banks, and RB Ottis Anderson.
These documentaries bring such insight into the runs these teams made. It's amazing how tight and yet oddly dysfunctional the Giants were under Parcells. The relationship between Simms and Parcells was rocky at first, but they both describe how close they became. The '90 Giants story is equally compelling, with how Hostetler filling in for the injured Simms. Carl Banks is particularly great here.
There also some great extras, mostly short documentaries made by NFL Films. The standout is a ten minute segment on legendary Giants TE Mark Bavaro.
Any Giants fan owes himself this set. A fan of the New York Football Giants must own this set. There's no excuse for not owning it.

The "missing rings" versions the NFL Network is starting to release give me hope that someday we will get more content like this on years when the 'Skins didn't go all the way.
1972- Went to Super Bowl VII
1983- Went to Super Bowl XVIII, dominant and very entertaining all year long
1984- ravaged by injuries, the 'Skins win 6 of their last 7 games, including 4th quarter comebacks over the Cowboys and Cardinals in weeks 15 & 16 to win the division. Art Monk sets the record for catches in a season.
1986- The 'Skins go 12-4, but they can't beat the Giants. Schroeder's one full season as starter, and he looks great at times. Several fun games.
1990- A late season surge inspired by Art Monk puts the 'Skins into the playoffs and leads to their dominant '91 Super Bowl championship team.
1999- Shoot-outs galore, as the Norv Turner-led 'Skins win the division and beat the Lions in the playoffs before losing to the Bucs by 1 point.
2005- Gibbs era II's best season, as they win their last 5 games to take a playoff spot and then beat the Bucs in Tampa.
2007- The end of Gibbs II. The tragic death of Sean Taylor inspires the 'Skins to victories in their final 4 games and a playoff berth.

NFL America's Game Super Bowl I-XL (2006) Review

I love a good work of fiction but sometimes reality can be very entertaining. This series is well-made and so intense and passionate that it brought me to tears more than one time. Every episode is a unique road to the superbowl by the team who won it and told by 3 important actors of the team. The 1985 conquest of the Bears for example is told by Mike Ditka, Mike Singletary and Jim McMahon. The stories that leads to the big game are fascinating, touching and often surprising. I love the series so much that I was comtemplating buying the first DVDs on the market which focus on one particular team and all the superbowls they won. But now, I was happy to see that they compile everything in one package. The packaging is very well made, the 40 DVDs being separated in 4 eras (66-75)(76-85)(86-95)and (96-05), 10 discs by DVD. Also, an interesting 88 page book with every conquest by every team. On the DVDs you have also a bunch of interviews that we couldn't see on the NFL network. If you love the NFL this is a great work by NFL films and Steve Sabol and a great piece of history to possess. The only thing missing is the Colts Superbowl last year but the documentary is about the first 40 Superbowl so we can't have everything unfortunately.
