Description

Howie Mooney is a man of many talents and a "fired up" APBA Fan. His Instagram bio puts it succinctly: "A dad. A guy. A goalie. One of 2 hosts of The Sports Lunatics sports history podcasts. Also a contributing writer to the firedupnetwork.ca website." One winter day in school in the early 1970s, his teacher brought in an APBA baseball game, and Mooney was hooked. We discuss everything from his work as a sports journalist and the evolution of sports to his replay projects (including his 1978 bowling tournament), his custom envelopes and the joy of reading the APBA cards.

The APBA Football Club was launched on Jan. 28, 2011. Bringing the game of APBA Football into the social media world, we offered everything from interviews with APBA icons and players, method-of-play tutorials, close study of the game's player cards and results boards, and much more. In August 2013, we held the first full APBA Football-only tournament at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. After an initial run from 2011-16, we're back to assist in further promoting and educating the APBA community. 66s to all! For podcast ideas and feedback, email apbafootballcluboriginal@gmail.com
