Description

Gilles Thibault and Hall of Famer Greg Wells had been on quite a replay tear when we reconnected. While the rest of the world turned to Zoom for work, more gamers turned to Zoom — as did Thibault and Wells, who pulled off a string of impressive replays. Gilles details the results of their 1972, 1976, 1980 and GTOP (Greatest Teams of the Past). Yep, another video filled with vintage APBA cards (although Gilles and Greg used the current 1976 season set and GTOPs for their projects).  Gilles and Greg had been playing Sunday morning football games at the annual APBA conventions for several years while the baseball finals were going on — the seeds of the greater football presence at today's tourneys.

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
