Podcasts about Immaculate Reception

In this week's Legends Of Sport Classic episode, we revisit Andy's conversation with the late Hall of Fame running back Franco Harris. Franco passed away on Dec. 20, 2022, just days shy of the Pittsburgh Steelers retiring his No. 32 in a long planned halftime ceremony to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the “Immaculate Reception.” Franco's game-winning touchdown against the Raiders in 1972 gave the Steelers their first Playoff win in franchise history and was recently voted the most famous play in NFL history. Hear Franco talk about his childhood, Penn State football, his historic catch that led to the first of four Super Bowls in the 1970s and much more! To hear the full episode, please visit iHeart, Apple podcast or Spotify.

In this week's Legends Of Sport Classic episode, we revisit Andy's conversation with the late Hall of Fame running back Franco Harris. Franco passed away on Dec. 20, 2022, just days shy of the Pittsburgh Steelers retiring his No. 32 in a long planned halftime ceremony celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the “Immaculate Reception.” Andy & Franco discuss his early life growing up, his path to the NFL, turning around the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1970s, memories from "The Immaculate Reception", how Frank Sinatra became Brigadier General of "Franco's Italian Army", what it meant to become the first African American & first Italian American Super Bowl MVP in the league's history, his incredible charitable work in the city of Pittsburgh, and his thoughts on the Steelers' contract debacles with LeVeon Bell & Antonio Brown.

A good game — whether it's a pro football playoff, or a family showdown on the kitchen table — can make you feel, at least for a little while, like your whole life hangs in the balance. This hour of Radiolab, Jad and Robert wonder why we get so invested in something so trivial. What is it about games that make them feel so pivotal? We hear how a recurring dream about football turned into a real-life lesson for Stephen Dubner, we watch a chessboard turn into a playground where by-the-book moves give way to totally unpredictable possibilities, and we talk to Dan Engber, a one time senior editor at Slate, now at The Atlantic, and a bunch of scientists about why betting on a longshot is so much fun. And finally, we talk to Malcolm Gladwell about why he loves the overdog. CITATIONS: Videos -  The Immaculate Reception (https://zpr.io/izhV3Sm88SWF) by Franco Harris on December 23, 1972.

Special Guest Paul Kengor  Author of the Devil and Karl Marx and the Devil and Bella Dodd The Immaculate Reception - The month of the Immaculate Conception The Blessed Mother has a cultural role in football. It has been something spoken about for 50 years there in Pittsburg.

Before college football became all about Power Five Conferences, football on the East Coast was some of the most competitive and led by several Hall of Fame coaches. While it may seem complicated to believe today, there was a time when Syracuse versus Penn State was for bragging rights in the Eastern part of the country. My college coach, Ben Schwartzwalder, battled Nittany Lion coaches Rip Engle and Joe Paterno during his long coaching career in some epic battles. Before arriving on the Syracuse campus, Franco Harris was on the campus of Penn State, making plays for Paterno and the Nittany Lions. Because of the old NCAA rules when first-year students didn't play, I'd seen Harris make plays and would compete against his Nittany Lions squad my sophomore year, which was his senior year. This was the start of a longtime rivalry between our teams. Harris would become a first-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1972 NFL Draft, and a few years later, Paul Brown and the Cincinnati Bengals drafted me in the third round of the 1974 NFL Draft. For my ten seasons with the Bengals, we played the Steelers 20 times, with the Bengals earning eight wins against a Steelers squad that would win four Super Bowls, with many Steelers feeling Franco was the glue to their success. After the 1983 season, the Steelers felt Franco had seen his better days and allowed him to sign with the Seattle Seahawks, where he ended his career in 1984.  I left the Bengals after the 1983 season, where I would play two years in the USFL for the New Jersey Generals before ending my playing career. Shortly after, started a career in broadcasting as a color analyst with the Bengals in 1986. While Franco Harris was a longtime rival, he was also a great man off the field who touched many by giving his time and energy for the betterment of all.  Harris was more than just part of one of the greatest plays in NFL history, the "Immaculate Reception," and I wanted to take time on In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, to pay tribute to one of football's all-time greats, Franco Harris.

The Steelers avoided disaster as they beat Raiders at home in the closing seconds of what was supposed to a joyous occasion celebrating the 50th Anniversary of The Immaculate Reception. Instead, it turned out to be somber night of remembrance about the man who means everything to the Pittsburgh Steelers franchise. While Franco Harris's jersey is retired and he's no longer with us...this franchise, this city, and the people who he impacted will never forget not only the player he was on the field, but man he was off the field.Join the team as we recap the Steelers narrow victory, honor the legend of Franco, preview our upcoming tilt against our hated rivals in Baltimore, and take a look at the games around the league with major playoff implications.We hope you had a Merry Christmas and enjoy the rest of the holiday season!

This year to celebrate Ninj-ativity 3 we celebrate the 30th anniversary of meeting Rocky, Colt, and Tum Tum in Jon Turteltaub's “3 Ninjas.” We take a deep dive into the film, the exceedingly strange nature of its production and distribution, and how this film that the Boston Globe said “…Crosses Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Home Alone!” was able to find a place in not only the hearts and minds of the you host-companions but an entire generation. Bonus: In keeping with the theme of trimming eleven minutes from the film for release in America we recorded a full eleven-ish minutes of off-topic material celebrating the 50th anniversary of the “Immaculate Reception.” 

CB and Clay have lots of football to talk about. Congrats to Messi and Argentina for winning the World Cup. The Pittsburgh Steelers retire Franco Harris' number 32 on the 50th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception. Google wins the bid for NFL broadcasting rights and will ultimately take over NFL Sunday Ticket. Did the referees have the right to penalize Buffalo's fans for throwing snowballs onto the field during play? Should Matt Ryan finish the season for the Indianapolis Colts or should they be giving younger QBs a look? We recap NFL week 15 pick'em and predict week 16.

"Bleav in Steelers" co-host Mark Bergin reacts to the Pittsburgh Steelers' 13-10 win on Christmas Eve against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Steelers retired the late Franco Harris' No. 32 jersey at halftime. This week marked the 50th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception. Like, 50 years ago, the Steelers only needed 13 points to beat the Raiders. Rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett found rookie wide receiver George Pickens for the game-winning touchdown pass with less than a minute left.

Heyward carried out the No. 32 flag against the Raiders. Also, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr threw three interceptions. The Steelers still have a shot at making the playoffs entering the final two weeks of the 2022 regular season.

The sudden passing of Franco Harris, a Steelers icon who was set to be honored on Saturday night in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception, still has so many in shock.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Jenna Harner of WPXI-TV. The Pittsburgh Steelers have all talked about how Franco Harris still had an impact on them as players even 50 years after the Immaculate Reception. When talking to Kenny Pickett, Najee Harris, Pat Freiermuth, Cam Heyward and others, all of them talked about how they felt motivated to win against the Las Vegas Raiders even more after his passing. But how can the Steelers pull it off? Their best chance is to focus on stopping Josh Jacobs and the Raiders' run game, while getting Najee Harris going in their own offense to help Kenny Pickett in his first game back from concussion protocol.

In memory of the "Immaculate Reception" the guys try to figure out the best play in Bears history.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Your Boy Q, host of the Locked on Raiders podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers plan to start Kenny Pickett against the Las Vegas Raiders on Christmas Eve. But how can they ease him back in as a starter after his injury against a team with arguably the best wide receiver in Davante Adams and best running back in Josh Jacobs? The answer lies up front, in both of the Steelers' offensive and defensive lines taking over the game. Chris Carter and Your Boy Q talk about the matchups that could favor each side, and why it may be more important for the Steelers to focus on stopping Josh Jacobs than Davante Adams. Also, with the passing of Franco Harris just days before the game, the 50th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception, and Harris' jersey being retired, could Mike Tomlin's team be fired up enough to impact the game and give the Steelers an advantage?

Justin Verlander was introduced yesterday and wants to pitch well into his 40s. How many Mets fans will buy season tickets today? Boomer and Gio can't believe Franco Harris passed away after seeing him look fine in an interview yesterday. Jerry has a story of a man who walked into a hospital with an explosive World War I shell lodged somewhere it shouldn't be. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer explains how the Mets' luxury tax bill is higher than many teams spend on their entire roster.
