Football America (1996)
It is the most American of all games, a contest of wills, skills, and finesse. We are overwhelmed by its power, fascinated by its cunning, drawn by its confrontations. Football brings life to college campuses on Saturdays, it monopolizes NFL cities on Sunday afternoons, and it transfixes the nation with the Super Bowl. But football's special appeal begins at the grassroots level. That's where the game transcends age, size, and locale, where participants need to share only a spirit of competition. Football America reminds us why Americans love this game.
