	Boxoffice Magazine [NFL: Greatest Follies Collection] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Since 1968, NFL Films has taken the game of football and, using unlimited camera angles, stuffed shirt narration and dramatic music, turned it into an epic challenge of gladiatorial intensity, akin to a secular Crusades.
		Disc One begins with the original 1968 "Football Follies", along with 1976's "The Son of Football Follies" (co-narrated by Bugs Bunny voice Mel Blanc!) and 1983's "NFL Follies Go To Hollywood", the most creatively produced of the three.
		Fans of football are advised to paint your face like a football, tap a kegger, put some burgers on the grill and relax.

	DVD Verdict Review - NFL Greatest Follies: Complete Collection
		Football Follies proved so popular that a "sequel" was made in 1976.
		Talkin' Follies is mainly little "skits" where voiceover artists provide the "real" dialogue for otherwise silent clips of players talking to coaches, coaches talking to officials, and so forth.
		The sixth and final Follies feature included, made in 2000, is the slickest and most professional of the bunch.

	Guardian Unlimited Sport \| Columnists \| Football: Eriksson's follies are a hit but they're still a sideshow
		Eriksson's flings with a television weather woman and a secretary at the Football Association were infinitely more entertaining than his press conferences.
		But they reflected upon his job only to the extent that critics wished he could have brought similar passion to his handling of the team in the last World Cup, not least when England were on their way out to a 10-man Brazil in the quarter-finals.
		After all Villa are surely the England of the Premier League: consistent underachievers with their one international triumph, the European Cup in 1982, a dusty memory.

		She also remarks that every home is decorated with the Irish flag and the spirit of football is everywhere.
		I find it fascinating that football is the largest sport in the world and the top country in the world does not care.

	NFL Greatest Follies: Complete Collection DVD Review - MovieWeb
		This two disk set is broken up into âThe Football Folliesâ, âThe Son of the Football Folliesâ and âNFL Follies Go Hollywoodâ on disc one.
		As this is basically football footage with a voice talking over it, it stands to reason that the sound would have to be pretty good.
		Sure, not every folly was a hit with me but overall I found myself chuckling along with the sense of humor behind these jokes.

		The name Football Follies was changed to Gaieties sometime in the '20s or '30s.

		There is indeed a fine line between showing some mental instability and being a football fan, but if you share that same "illness" with millions of fans across the nation, aren't we all just "normal?" Well, probably not, but that's a good try.
		When one is in "Intentional Football Repression," he or she must literally do anything possible to keep the blinders on in order to keep the football world shut out until training camp begins in late July (and this year it really was late July).
		Supposedly Sanders is considering a return to the playing field with the Baltimore Ravens, who have quickly become the modern-day version of the "Bad Boys" of the 1970s, the Oakland Raiders (except these purple jail birds seem to have more players in trouble with the law than even those wild Raiders did).

	USATODAY.com - Best of worst on NFL Films' new 'Follies' DVDs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		NFL Films first turned football's gaffes into a goofy reel of choreographed hysteria in 1968 when it produced NFL Football Follies.
		Released in 1978, NFL Football Follies became the biggest selling and most widely distributed sports video in history.
		The playfulness of the approach and the innocence of the wacky happenings are, to Sabol's mind, the keys to the enduring success of the follies.

		As we made our way toward the complex, I was convinced that I saw where the football game was being held… there was a decently-sized group of people watching some event.
		The football game ended up being in the area of least spectators on a half-sized field that was in tough shape; afterall, American football doesn’t get big publicity here.
		It was so fun to watch the way in which the teams played, some of the norms they had altered, and to see their interaction with eachother and their fans (friends or family).

		Over the course of a few seasons, you won't be able to assume the role of armchair coach or general manager armed with a chance to guide their team from worst to first and maybe even create a winning dynasty.
		Many a football nut buy these games just for the chance to slowly create a dream squad and tinker with it until they can move from the owning space in the cellar to possessing Mr.
		Of course, even if you don't have the most glam graphics in the world, a football game should be able to get by if it has excellent gameplay to keep folks playing well past the Super Bowl.

	Boston.com / Sports / 'The NFL Network' truly is fantasy football
		And if that doesn't hook her, surely "NFL Football Follies" will make her cry and "Point After: Sounds of the Game" will make her cancel her book club date.
		"Fantasy Football" will be devoted not to the silly, imaginary teams for fans in rotisserie leagues, but to the silly, imaginary things fans long for.
		Fans from Detroit, for instance, would talk about their dreams of a winning team and fans in Cleveland could talk about a day at the stadium without drunks and criminal behavior.

	Blogger: Email Post to a Friend
		Football follies: I read with interest ESPN The Magazine's story on former Ohio State running back Maurice Clarett.
		Clarett alleges he took money and cars from boosters and had tutors ensure he remained eligible for football, which really is understating it.
		The story itself really does not surprise me. At many big-time schools, especially one that is successful like OSU (they won the National Championship during Clarett's freshman and only season there), there certainly are going to be temptations like these.

		It was a great game, and Hamilton won (which was great, as its my home town), and a fantastic way to break my football cherry (a process which, thankfully, does not involve my anus and a football).
		He's an elderly, somewhat rotund gentleman (who, now that I think of it, is shaped like a football) dressed in Ti-Cat colours (Yellow and Black) and wearing a bowler hat.
		I assumed he was a radio announcer, or a player from the old days, or some such.

	Tangerine Bowl Perceptions Vary :: NC State meets Kansas Monday at 5:30. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Kansas, a school known for football follies and basketball excellence, surprised many of the preseason prognosticators in the tough Big 12 Conference by gaining bowl eligibility with a 6-6 mark.
		Given the long futile history of Kansas football, Mangino has also worked a minor miracle this year by becoming the first KU coach since 1975 to lead his team to a bowl game in just his second year.
		There was no such satisfaction for NC State, which must now ignore the common perceptions associated with this game because the reality is that Kansas has been a pretty good football team, especially when Whittemore has been on the field.
