You never know what you’re going to find when you go digging around in your old filing cabinets. Especially John Houser’s (LA Rams, Dallas Cowboys, St. Louis Cardinals 1957 – 1963) old filing cabinets! We received a comment to the previous post from John earlier:

Well, lookie here! See what I found in the deep, dark catacombs of my filing cabinet. It’s a copy of the first attempt to form an NFL Retired Players Association …and look at the 3rd paragraph, page 1 – to wit…

Videos from Our 2011 Conference
All of the presentations from our Conference were streamed live on Ustream and also recorded for editing. We’re currently working on editing all of the videos and enhancing the sound quality. (HINT: Headphones might help!) However, many of you have already been asking about viewing the videos so we decided to upload them in their rough versions so those of you who couldn’t attend the Conference in person can watch them. As soon as Jennifer and her team finish the editing, we’ll get the improved versions online immediately. (The videos do take some time to load up so please be patient while each frame loads up. You can also view them in Full Screen mode by clicking on the button in the lower right corner of each video frame.)
