Football Is Family is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Your Favorite Sport's Yesteryear.

Jack Gilden

The history of the NFL is marked by great moments- moments that make people famous, moments that make cities celebrate, and moments that make franchises become dynasties.

In the history of the NFL, you will find moments when people (players and coaches) come together to either form a great union, or form a division organization that doesn’t go anywhere.  Sometimes they could do both.

Today we talk to Jack Gilden, the author of the book Collision of Wills: Johnny Unitas, Don Shula, and the Rise of the Modern NFL.  In this interview, we talk about this book, Johnny Unitas, Don Shula, and how the Mayflower Moving Company is viewed in Baltimore today.
