We'll have a reenactment of the flip of the coin with the referee, Norm Schachter.

And representing the New York Jets is their outstanding middle linebacker, Al Atkinson, is their captain.

And the Browns, at least at the initial flip of the coin, had just two captains for tonight's game, Leroy Kelly offensively, and Jim Houston defensively.

And the Browns, at least at the initial flip of the coin, had just two captains for tonight's game, Leroy Kelly offensively and Jim Houston defensively.

As you know, this past week, Don Cockcroft, the last of the Browns to be, uh, unsigned, he wasn't holding out, he was just unsigned, came to terms.

Here comes Joe Namath across the field with Al Atkinson, and out to greet them, Jim Houston and Leroy Kelly.

Norm Schachter to do the usual introductions and the flip of the coin.

I don't even think they flip it on this reenactment because they know what it is.

He was, uh, delayed in getting the ball ready for play, and it wound up the, the clock ran out, so he sat for two games.

And then the, the 1968 incident, which was Norm Schachter's crew with, uh, with some names on there, Joe O'Connell, uh, Joe Conn- uh, and, uh, Burl Toler, uh, Jack Fetti again, uh, Adrian Burke, the black judge, and George Ellis, the field judge.

Uh, they were supposed to enforce, uh, 15 yards from the spot of the foul on, uh, holding, which is what it was in that day, but they dropped the down.

They did not repeat the down, and so I believe it was the Rams that were entitled to have a fourth and 35 or 40 or something like that, and they did not get it, and it was not until after the game was, uh, completed and they looked at the film that, yeah, they realized that that was incorrectly enforced, so they sat for a game and did not get post-season assignments.

Norm Schecter.

who was just the referee.

He was just the referee of the game.

So, but, uh, yeah, so it just says, no, it was just the referee, Norm Schachter.

But anyway, my point being the national anthem was done by marching bands from the university of Arizona and Grambling College.

And then, uh, the halftime show was done by Al Hurt, who was a famous, uh, big band leader or not big band, but marching band leader and the marching bands from the university of Arizona and Grambling College.
