A second look at football by author George Plimton, and interesting to read today in light of the talk of football's violence and concussions 43 years later. Looking at two Lions player John Gordy on offense and Alex Karras on defense Plimpton shows the tolls of playing football openly and honestly. I do not think you could find this honesty with today's players while they are still playing. Also interesting reading about players before the advent of big money contracts and the work to get a retirement fund for older players. ( )
