By Darin Here are some of the headlines we hit on in this episode: What an honor we had to speak with an NFL legend himself, Upton Bell to discuss and pay tribute to his Father, Commissioner Bert Bell, who contributed so much to the NFL we know now, and probably saved the League from itself! Upton has generously shared his family’s football nostalgia with the world by securing it in the UMass Amherst’s Upton Bell Collection. I strongly suggest visiting the site while you listed to see some of the outstanding memorabilia Upton has collected and contributed to the museum.
Upton Bell is very active on Twitter as he can be followed @UptonBell . His books and even more info about this remarkable man and his legendary football family can be found Here for More Upton Bell!
