Halftime Highlights from ABC Monday Night Football 1970-1983
***************************************************************
I really used to enjoy the vintage "Halftime Highlights" that Cosell did during the halftime segment of ABC MNF. I also liked the pregame "teaser" clips of the two opposing teams with the NFL theme "Heavy Action" playing in the background. Now I primarily collect and trade older ABC Monday Night Football games from 1970-1983 when Howard Cosell was still in the ABC broadcast booth. I am primarily interested in games that contain Howard Cosell Halftime Highlights. Chris Berman rekindled my interest in the subject of Howard Cosell saying "Look at that little monkey run" after hearing Berman say "Look at that little Meggett run!" in the 2005 remake of "The Longest Yard." The internet is full of misleading information incorrectly confusing the comment with the September 5, 1983 Dallas at Washington (Alvin Garrett) game when Cosell said, "That little monkey gets loose doesn`t he?" ---- FACT: The correct player turns out to be Herb Mul-Key of the Washington Redskins in the September 23, 1973 game between the Redskins and Cardinals after he returned a 97-yard kickoff for a touchdown. Cosell`s "Look at that little monkey run!" comment was made the next evening during Monday Night Football on September 24, 1973 during Halftime Highlights of the N.O. Saints and Dallas Cowboys game. If anyone has this footage or if you want to contact me for a trade please send me a message. Games Wanted
All of my games are original broadcast and 99% of my collection is MNF related. Almost all of mine are complete games and many have commercials and Halftime Highlights which can be checked under the game details. I have not graded the majority of my games because it pretty subjective but will be happy to answer any questions.
***************************************************************
I am only doing limited trading now. If we haven`t traded before, I will consider sending first on small trades.
NOTE: NONE OF MY GAMES ARE FOR SALE.
