Jack Reader - NFL

 

Perhaps some will remember the 15nth of January in 1967, when the Green Bay Packers scored a historical 35-10 against the Kansas City Chiefs in front of 61.946 spectators in Los Angeles.

Quarterback Bart Starr from the Packers was the MVP on the field and Jack Reader and his NFL colleagues had started one of the biggest sports events of all times.

For sure such an outstanding personal background qualifies for a clear comment on the situation of the NFL in Europe as he had been critical with smaller crowds in Berlin, Scotland and Barcelona pointing at them as challenges for the NFL Europe management.

Before the interview he must have had a bit of mileage left behind on that busy day during the 1999 NFL Europe season, when he had to supervise the derby between Galaxy and Fire.

Every field goal one barrel of beer had been an idea, that had appealed to him a lot more than the parking situation and other less convincing encounters around the stadiums.
