The Timeless Upton Bell....

Upton Bell spending time with Howard Cosell
and Curt Gowdy

When Scott Adamson and I first began this podcast (when it was called, until recently, From the 55 Yardline), we knew that confining ourselves to simply Canadian football would not be enough, for we could not ignore our own American game and the men, both on and off the field, who made history. Of those men we interviewed none was or has been more entertaining to talk to, or been more of a caring and gracious guest, than the now 89 year young, Upton Bell.  Of course Upton is the son of the legendary former NFL Commissioner and founder of the Philadelphia Eagles, Bert Bell. However, Upton himself has his own amazing story, which he has shared over the course of three episodes.

I could go into detail here, but why not listen to him tell his tale in the three separate shows he has appeared on here on Gridiron America...
