  • Tales from the Vault: Al Davis (1989) Part Two
    Apr 13 2022

    Host Andrea Kremer takes us back to 1989 for Part Two of NFL Films Steve Sabol interviewing Al Davis. The Raiders owner discussed his childhood and his love of sports despite initially not having a television. Davis says following sports wasn't a way of life for him, it was his life. Sabol explores Davis always being a leader and the rare times that he needed to step away from football, including his wife Carol's illness and amazing recovery in 1979. Back to football, Al explains his intuition and foresight with players, execs and the direction of the game. The Raiders had their own rules and regulations, but the 'Commitment to Excellence' and the goal to win always came first. We hear thoughts on John Madden and the direction of the NFL, before closing with Davis defining what he hopes his legacy in the NFL will be.

Just WOW

This podcast takes interviews from the late, great Steve Sabol and shared them in an unfiltered format. Andrea Kremer does a great job of giving context especially when they refer to a current event (current at time of the interview) and the listener may not be able to recall or know the context.

She says in the intro to think of this as a time capsule. And wow is it!! You hear from players and coaches about the NFL but also about the specific time period’s society, culture, but also plans and wishes for the future. And listening to these time capsule in hind sight gives great perspective!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
