Pro Football Hall of Fame finally lands John Stallworth Stallworth will be inducted at Canton on Aug. 3, ending a frustrating wait in which he and Swann relived the competitiveness of their playing days. Stallworth isn't known for the acrobatic catch, as is Swann, but you can look this up: He still holds the Super Bowl record with a 24.4-yard career average per reception. Stallworth did not have the statistics that some modern receivers can flash for several reasons -- rules changes since he played have benefitted offenses, the 1970s Steelers featured a running game and he had to compete with Swann for the ball. www.post-gazette.com /steelers/20020721stallworth0721p5.asp   (2218 words)

NFL.com: Stallworth riding high after induction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) Stallworth's long wait was an unfortunate byproduct of seeing eight teammates from the Steelers' dynasty of the 1970s inducted. Stallworth's contributions to an offense that included Hall of Famers Terry Bradshaw, Franco Harris, and Swann were undeniable. The senior Stallworth also seemed to finally be at peace with closure of his celebrated NFL career, reveling in the realization of an unrequited dream. www.nfl.com /ce/feature/0,3783,5576410,00.html   (544 words)

Pikes_Peak_96   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) John Stallworth, from Wichita, Kansas, had been planning his stratagy since his rookie year up the "Pike" in "95" where he took fourth. Stallworth --sprawled flat on the ground next to his quad, not an ounce of energy left-- was relieved that it was over as Storm's LT500 announced that the first wave was approaching. Stallworth described his reaction to the news of his victory, "I was floored, I just couldn't believe it." He added that reality hit when he was handed the winning trophy the next day. www.atving.com /editor/racing/pikes.html   (1232 words)

CNNSI.com - Pro Football - Steelers teammates Stallworth, Swann together again - Friday August 02, 2002 12:16 PM John Stallworth holds the Super Bowl record with a 40.3 yards-per-catch average. Stallworth and Swann were one of the most productive receiving tandems ever, but some Hall of Fame selection committee members said it was evident they kept each other out of Canton for years. Swann helped out by asking Stallworth to be his Hall of Fame presenter, thus giving Stallworth a share of the stage that Swann thought his former teammate deserved for himself. sportsillustrated.cnn.com /football/news/2002/07/31/stallworth_hof_ap   (737 words)

New inductee Swann makes strong pitch for Stallworth Stallworth played 14 seasons with the Steelers and caught more passes (537) for more yards (8,723) and more touchdowns (63) than any player in team history. Stallworth has been eligible for induction for nine years, but he has never made it to the final ballot. Stallworth was a fourth-round draft pick in 1974, the same year Swann was drafted on the first round out of Southern California. www.post-gazette.com /steelers/20010805swann0805p2.asp   (982 words)

Stallworth joins Swann in Hall of Fame - PittsburghLIVE.com Stallworth, the most productive wide receiver in Steelers history, is the ninth member of the Steelers teams that won four Super Bowls from 1975-1980 to make it to the Hall of Fame, joining coach Chuck Noll, Swann, Joe Greene, Jack Ham, Mel Blount, Terry Bradshaw, Franco Harris, Jack Lambert and Mike Webster. Stallworth and Swann are part of the greatest draft class in NFL history, the 1974 group that included No. 1 Swann, No. 2 Lambert, No. 4a Stallworth and No. 5 Webster. Stallworth earned a Hall of Fame berth over two other wide receivers, Art Monk and James Lofton, who had more receptions, yards and touchdowns and were among the final 11 considered, but didn't get enough votes for induction. www.pittsburghlive.com /x/tribune-review/sports/s_15565.html   (963 words)

ESPN Classic - Stallworth was Steelers' stalwart receiver John Stallworth is happy to complete the Steelers' Hall of Fame representation. Stallworth and Swann had been competitors throughout most of their careers. While Stallworth and Swann were rivals competing for the ball and big plays on the field, Stallworth contends that the two were far from enemies. espn.go.com /classic/hof02/s/2002/0802/1413278.html   (987 words)

Super Bowl xiv In the 1974 draft, Swann was selected No. 1 by the Steelers, and Stallworth No. 4, which was their approximate numerical relationship five years later: one Swann was equal to four Stallworths in the minds of most observers. Stallworth, who felt he was ignored unjustly by Bradshaw in the first half, scored what became the winning touchdown by sensationally pulling in a 73-yard bomb early in the last quarter to erode a 19-17 Ram lead. Stallworth gathered in the pass without missing a stride and scampered untouched for his Super Bowl record third touchdown reception while Perry lay on the turf. www.steelergridiron.com /history/historyof14.html   (5259 words)

More Than a Passing Interest When John Stallworth sprinted to the middle of the field and jumped high to pull in a pass from quarterback Terry Bradshaw, he had no way to protect himself from getting hit by a defensive player. But more useful to Stallworth, the cofounder, president, and CEO of Madison Research Corp. (#418), in Huntsville, Ala., which develops and maintains computer and software systems, are the lessons he learned on the field: focus on the ball, play as a team, and plan for all contingencies. But Stallworth, who was involved with football in the days before players earned a king's ransom, has plenty of motivation to keep going. www.inc.com /magazine/19971015/1467.html   (813 words)

Long wait for Stallworth ends today - PittsburghLIVE.com Stallworth was the relative unknown, fourth-round pick from Division II Alabama A&M, one that was so uncertain a prospect that he had been used as a defensive back in the Senior Bowl. His induction, while late in the eyes of many, is confirmation that Stallworth did just as much for Bradshaw, Harris and the rest, even if his presence was relatively undervalued and his achievements under appreciated at the time. For extra credit, Stallworth recorded a touchdown reception in an NFL record eight consecutive postseason games, ensuring that consistency and dependability would be a part of his legacy as well as greatness. www.pittsburghlive.com /x/s_84435.html   (1343 words)

Welcoming - John Stallworth - Pro Football Hall of Fame John, you know how I feel and I want to formally welcome you into that small family of professional football players who were at the top of their game. Lynn Swann selected John Stallworth to be his presenter in 2001.

ESPN Classic - Stallworth, Swann together again Swann was the celebrated first-round draft pick from high-profile Southern California, Stallworth the lesser-known fourth-rounder from the virtually unknown Alabama A&M. Fast fact: Noll was so enamored with Stallworth, and so worried another team would draft him, that he wanted him in the first round. In their 35-31 victory over Dallas in January 1979, Stallworth made three catches for 115 yards and two touchdowns. A year later in a 31-19 victory over the Rams, he made a game-winning 73-yard scoring catch early in the fourth quarter, and his 45-yard reception later in the quarter set up the clinching touchdown. espn.go.com /classic/hof02/s/2002/0731/1412386.html   (733 words)

Football Digest: From the sandlots to the shrine: for John Stallworth and the rest of the Class of 2002, the call to the Hall is the culmination of boyhood dreams - Hall of Fame Induction Preview And that's how it was for John Stallworth, who was so severely pigeon-toed as a child that he could barely put one foot in front of the other, let alone run precise pass routes. Because of Stallworth's problems with his feet--"I couldn't run 20 yards without one toe hitting the back of my heel and tripping myself," he says--he was hardly the star of the sandlots around town. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m0FCL/is_10_31/ai_86867349   (1636 words)

Amazon.com: Profile For Kim Anehall: Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) The conflicting personalities of Sam and Rebecca would be too heavy to handle if it was not for their two best friends: the living with mom and trivia-spitting mailman Cliff (John Ratzenberger) and the beer enthusiastic conundrum Norman (George Wendt) whose wife nobody ever has seen. Nonetheless, the seventh season offers a very good sitcom experience, which is a must see for Cheers fans and those who simply enjoy well-written humor. At the time, it was very controversial for men and women to live under the same roof if they were not married, as stereotypes often caused people to make strong sexual implications about people of opposite sexes that co-inhabit the same apartment. www.amazon.com /gp/cdp/member-reviews/A6ADO7B6FUVN   (5011 words)

Anyway, the sports reporter was mainly asking John were the New England Patriots the NEXT DYNASTY in professional football, like Stallworth and the Steelers were in the 70's. I don't know what John told the man because it caught me off guard to have seen him on the "big" screen in the first place and by the time I really "focused" on what he was saying, "his" few minutes were almost up. www.al.com /forums/aam/index.ssf?artid=7347   (411 words)

ESPN Classic - January Moments His 73-yard bomb to John Stallworth - on "60 Prevent, Slot, Hook and Go" - puts the Steelers back in front, 24-19, in the fourth quarter and his 45-yard pass to Stallworth sets up Franco Harris' second one-yard run, the clinching score in the 31-19 victory. Bradshaw's first two touchdown passes are to John Stallworth, for 28 and 75 yards. The last pass by Montana, who completes 23-of-36 for a Super Bowl record 357 yards, is a bullet - a 10-yard bulls-eye to John Taylor in the end zone with 34 seconds left at Miami's Orange Bowl. www.espn.go.com /classic/moments/s/january.html   (9771 words)
