This week on the podcast, I'm recommending four sports movies from the 1970s. These aren't the usual titles you hear brought up. Some are a bit strange, some are just overlooked. All of them are worth checking out.Slap Shot (1977)Directed by George Roy Hill, who also did The Sting and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Paul Newman plays the player-coach of a struggling minor league hockey team. The film is known for its rough humor and violence on the ice. It was written by Nancy Dowd, based on her brother's experience in the minors. The Hanson Brothers, who steal most of their scenes, were played by real hockey players. The film didn't do well at first but built a strong following over the years.The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh (1979)This one is about astrology and basketball. A Pittsburgh team becomes good after aligning its players' zodiac signs. It stars Julius Erving, who was still playing in the NBA at the time. The movie was shot in actual basketball arenas and features real NBA footage. The soundtrack was put together by Thom Bell, known for his work with The Spinners and The Stylistics. It's not a typical sports movie, and it's not serious, but that's part of the appeal.One on One (1977) Robbie Benson stars as a small-town high school basketball player who gets a scholarship to a big college. Benson co-wrote the script. The film was directed by Lamont Johnson, who worked mostly in television but had a few feature films. The music is by Seals and Crofts. It's more grounded than the other films in this group. The basketball scenes are decent, and the story focuses on the pressure college athletes face.The World's Greatest Athlete (1973) A Disney comedy with John Amos and Tim Conway. They go to Africa to find a new track star and bring back a Tarzan-type athlete played by Jan-Michael Vincent. Vincent did some of his own stunts, including a few track scenes. The film mixes broad humor with some light sports moments. It's not realistic, and it wasn't supposed to be. Worth a look if you want something lighter.All four of these were made during a time when studios were trying different things with sports movies. None of them are exactly like the others. If you're looking for something off the usual path, any of these would work. This is probably the first in a series of episodes I will eventually do about sports movies from this decade, I hope you enjoy them.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Strap in and try to keep up, as we attempt to follow the peripatetic 58-year journey of one of the NBA's most wandering franchises - with New York-area sports beat reporter Rick Laughland ("A History of the Nets: From Teaneck to Brooklyn"). Today's Brooklyn Nets club began its life in 1967 as the New Jersey Americans - a charter member of the American Basketball Association, playing at the Teaneck Armory.  A year later, they moved to Long Island (LI Arena, then Island Garden, then Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum) to become the New York Nets, winning two ABA championships (1974, 1976) behind superstar Julius Erving.  Absorbed into the NBA in 1976, the team struggled financially and was forced to sell Erving, leading to early-season struggles. In 1977, they relocated to the Garden State as the New Jersey Nets, playing at Rutgers Athletic Center (now Jersey Mike's Arena) before moving to Brendan Byrne (aka Meadowlands) Arena in 1981.   After almost becoming the "Swamp Dragons" in 1994, the early 2000s saw breakthrough success with Jason Kidd, Kenyon Martin, and Richard Jefferson - making back-to-back NBA Finals runs in 2002 and 2003.  Before a brief move to Newark's Prudential Center (2010–12), the team relocated to Brooklyn's purpose-built Barclays Center, with a complete franchise name, logo and color-scheme rebrand.  Initially building around Deron Williams, they later pursued star power with Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce, followed by Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden in 2019–2021. Still bereft of an elusive NBA title, will the Nets continue to ply their trade in Brooklyn - or will they eventually return to their nomadic ways? + + +    SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=35106 SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS) https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2   BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): " A History of the Nets: From Teaneck to Brooklyn": https://amzn.to/41oxSev FIND AND FOLLOW: Website: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/

Aujourd'hui, je vais te parler d'une des légendes absolues de la musique hip-hop made in USA. J'ai nommé le grand, l'immense Dr Dre ! Et oui, je ne vous le cache pas, je suis fan... Parce que ce mec n'a pas révolutionné le rap qu'une fois, mais trois ! Pour comprendre cette carrière un peu folle, il faut plonger dans son parcours... Je vous explique tout ça. Originaire du quartier difficile de Compton, à Los Angeles en Californie, le petit André Romelle Young voit le jour le 18 février 1965. Sa jeunesse est marquée par des conflits familiaux et un foyer instable après le divorce de ses parents. Du coup, dès son plus jeune âge, il développe une passion pour la musique, comme un exutoire. À l'adolescence, il se lance dans le monde du Djing, inspiré par des figures emblématiques comme Grandmaster Flash. Il affine son art dans les clubs locaux, où il rencontre d'autres talents prometteurs. Il prend le nom de Dr J., en hommage à son joueur de basket préféré, Julius Erving. Plus tard, ce surnom devient Dr Dre, qui mélange son premier pseudo avec son propre prénom, André. ______ Briller en société est un podcast original NRJ, à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes et sur le site et l'application NRJ.fr Texte : Daphné Breytenbach Voix et mix : Louis Daubé Rédaction en chef : Sarah Conan & Anaïs Koopman Production : Anne-Cécile Kirry Assistante de production : Marie Carette ______ Et découvrez les autres podcast produits par NRJ : - Le podcast Destin, sur les incroyables histoires de vie - Le podcast Inspirés, pour découvrir les coulisses de vos chansons préférées - Le podcast Palmarès !, parce que le cinéma s'écoute aussi en podcast ______ Briller en société est un podcast original NRJ, à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoute et sur le site et l'application NRJ.fr Texte : Daphné Breytenbach Voix et mix : Louis Daubé Rédaction en chef : Sarah Conan & Anaïs Koopman Production : Anne-Cécile Kirry & Marie Carette ______ Et découvrez les autres podcast produits par NRJ : - Le podcast Destin, sur les incroyables histoires de vie - Le podcast Inspirés, pour découvrir les coulisses de vos chansons préférées - Le podcast Gossip Love, sur la vie amoureuse des stars

Julius Erving, better know as Dr. J, was one of the most entertaining players of all time. He spent his first five seasons of his pro career in the ABA. Unfortunately, there is painfully little video of his time in that league. Stories about his exploits grew into mythical status because there was no video to prove otherwise. Some claimed that he dunked the ball from the 3-point line. The stories began to grow out of control until he joined the NBA and people could see how good he really was. And he was indeed very good.CREDITSRick Loayza: Head researcher, writer, and voiceJacob Loayza: Editor, producer, and publisher MUSIC"Disco Funk" by Jam Morgan"Horizons" by Roa SPORTS HISTORY NETWORKsportshistorynetwork.comsportshistorynetwork.com/podcasts/basketball-history-101/ FACEBOOKm.facebook.com/Basketball-History-101-103801581493027/ BUSINESS CONTACTbballhistory101@gmail.com

The Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers faced off on November 25, 1977, at The Spectrum in Philadelphia. At this point in the season, the Warriors (entering at 9-9) were aiming to stabilize their campaign under head coach Al Attles, driven by veteran stars Rick Barry and Phil Smith. Meanwhile, the 76ers (entering at 12-5), coached by Gene Shue, were led by the dynamic Julius Erving and George McGinnis, both of whom were vital in establishing the team as contenders in the Eastern Conference. The 76ers were riding high on momentum and were already seen as a major threat in the league, while the Warriors were looking for consistency amidst a competitive Western Conference landscape.The game was a high-scoring and tightly contested affair, with both teams showcasing their offensive firepower. Philadelphia jumped to an early lead, outscoring Golden State 32-26 in the first quarter, thanks to a strong performance from McGinnis, who would finish with 34 points and 20 rebounds. Julius Erving added 28 points, asserting his all-around dominance. Golden State, however, kept the game close with Phil Smith scoring a team-high 30 points and Rickey Green adding an efficient 22 points off the bench. The Warriors mounted a late comeback, forcing the game into overtime after a balanced scoring effort in the fourth quarter, but Philadelphia's composure in the extra period sealed the win.With the victory, the 76ers improved to 13-5, solidifying their position as Eastern Conference frontrunners in a season that would see them finish second in the Atlantic Division and eventually reach the NBA Finals. The Warriors, dropping to 9-10, continued their uneven season but showed promise in players like Smith and Green. For Philadelphia, this game was another step toward establishing themselves as one of the league's elite teams of the era.philadelphi76ers #goldenstatewarriors #juliuserving #georgemcginnis #rickbarry #philsmith #rickeygreen #nbahistory #1977season

In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring you the best NBA duo's of the 1980's to the table for discussion. 

Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Mike Littwin - 07:24   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:46:36   "Just Try Me" by Dave Gunders - 02:08:13   Outro - 02:13:51   Following this historic month of political upheaval, the lead columnist for @coloradosun, Mike Littwin, reviews the dramatic developments climaxed by the Chicago DNC. VP Kamala Harris' acceptance speech was the cherry on top.   Littwin recounts his career from growing up in Norfolk to covering the local ABA Virginia Squires – who practiced at the Norfolk JCC. Point guard Larry Brown and forward Doug Moe were friendly to young Littwin, who labored for the local paper.   Two years later, the Squires had a new player, Julius Erving, who stood out. When George Gervin joined the Squires, Littwin witnessed the Iceman and Dr. J. play hellacious one-on-one games after practice. https://images.app.goo.gl/WjANJtiwQUN6Ffoi6   Littwin went on to significant stints at the Baltimore Sun and LA Times before heading to Denver, where, for decades, he was Denver's leading news columnist at the late Rocky Mountain News. Littwin's work still shines twice a week at the Colorado Sun.   Kamala Harris' nomination acceptance speech gets thoroughly reviewed. The Craig Silverman Show salutes Littwin for bravely calling on @potus to step down right after his debate debacle. Littwin kept it up in subsequent columns. https://coloradosun.com/2024/06/30/biden-trump-debate-opinion-littwin/   Social media barbs were thrown at Littwin and others advocating for Biden to pass the torch. The show recognizes the critical roles of Ezra Klein, David Axelrod, Tim Miller, NYT, George Clooney, Joe Walsh, Pod Save America, Joe Salazar, and Rob Reiner for joining the patriotic advocacy.   The antisemitism of Donald Trump gets addressed and undressed. Given Trump's verbal attack on PA Gov. Josh Shapiro and Trump's claims Jews need their heads examined, Littwin lets loose on the GOP presidential nominee. Host and guest talk as two experienced American Jews.   We have never seen a phenomenon like Kamala Harris and her VP selection, Tim Walz. We go over the Walz speech and the sensation caused when Gus Walz cried with pride in his Dad. Warning: get a handkerchief.

Littwin traveled the world with Heisler when they worked together.

Colorado readers are deprived of most of our old favorites, but not the legendary Littwin, who still enjoys the challenge and profit of churning out world-class columns for us to enjoy.   Littwin's highly accomplished UT Austin law professor daughter, Angie Littwin, and Littwin's grandsons also have him loving life. Few people like politics and history more than Mike Littwin. We like and feel Kamalamomentum. https://law.utexas.edu/faculty/angela-k-littwin/publications/   Troubadour Dave Gunders loved the Chicago DNC and identified his favorite parts. Kamala Harris was the star, and we hope our 47th President. She made her case on Thursday.

In March of 2019, we had the privilege of Pat Williams joining the Tim DeMoss Show for the full hour. At the time, he had just released a new book (something he'd done 100+ times in his life :)) entitled Character Carved in Stone: The 12 Core Values of West Point That Build Leaders And Produce Success.In light of Mr. Williams' passing yesterday, on the program today (4pm-5pm) we feature much of that interview, covering ground from his days with the Phillies and 76ers (and in basketball in general), his appreciation for the Greater Philadelphia area (having grown up in Wilmington DE), certainly about leadership, and the biggest decision of his life which took place in February 1968--deciding to follow Jesus Christ. Mr. Williams shares, "The first thing that hit me as a new Christian was I'm going to take my hands off my life and let the Lord lead through all of this. I was tired of trying to promote myself and climb the ladder. So I just relaxed and said, 'Lord, I'm in your hands.'" Several months later, he received a call from Dr. Jack Ramsay (then the 76ers GM and about to move into the team's head coaching position) asking Mr. Williams to run the team's front office, opening what turned into 50+ years in the NBA and a truly incredible life of friendships, accomplishments, ministry and service.Pat tells the story about that call from Dr. Ramsay, plus others involving Moses Malone, Coach K, Dick Vermeil, Fergie Jenkins, Pistol Pete Maravich, Wilt Chamberlain and many more.Find out more about Pat's life, work and legacy at www.patwilliams.com.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Julius Erving, widely known as Dr. J, was born February 22, 1950, in Roosevelt, New York. Attending the University of Massachusetts, Erving honed his skills before entering the professional realm, eventually landing with the New York Nets further. However, it was his move to the Philadelphia 76ers in 1976 that truly propelled him into the spotlight. Paired with his exceptional talent, Erving's leadership and charisma helped elevate the 76ers to new heights, landing an NBA championship in 1983. Erving earned numerous accolades, including 11 NBA All-Star selections and two NBA All-Star Game MVP awards in 1977 and 1983. His retirement in 1987 marked the end of an era, leaving behind a legacy that forever changed the way basketball was played and perceived. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, our panelists dive into a range of hot topics, starting with their thoughts on the rising stars they're most excited to watch. They also analyze the Milwaukee Bucks' recent loss to the Memphis Grizzlies G-League team, questioning whether the Bucks are truly contenders or just "fool's gold." The panel debates whether the Celtics should consider moving Jaylen Brown if they don't win this year and explores the concept that superstars shouldn't bear all the credit or blame for team outcomes. Additionally, they delve into George Karl's comments about Carmelo Anthony being overrated and ponder how many modern champions the '86 Celtics and '87 Lakers could defeat. They also imagine a hypothetical scenario with the 1970s big three of Oscar Robertson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Julius Erving, discussing how dominant they would be in today's NBA.

The 1980s NBA was dominated by the rivalry between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics, but 1 team managed to have a more dominant title run than either of them: the 1983 Philadelphia 76ers! Philly's own Tanya Morris of Mom Your Business joins me to talk about one of the league's most forgotten championship teams!  Tanya tells me how her hometown team caught her attention initially by acquiring the legendary Julius Erving. We also discuss the weird circumstances that led to Dr. J going to the 76ers and his immediate impact!  While the Doctor was certainly the biggest name on the team, the 76ers slowly surrounded him with an incredible supporting cast of Hall of Fame-level talent. Maurice Cheeks, Bobby Jones, Andrew Toney, and more played important roles for the perennial Eastern Conference contenders, but they are mostly forgotten today so we show them some love!  Speaking of underrated stars, Tanya talks about what it was like when the 76ers got the final piece of their championship puzzle, Moses Malone. She tells me how great he was prior to coming to Philly, how the city reacted to his acquisition, and how the move compares to Kevin Durant joining the Golden State Warriors. Then, after years of getting close but coming up short, the 76ers have a historic regular season and playoff run that leads to an NBA title! Tanya talks about the excitement of watching that in real-time, how it felt when the final buzzer sounded, and her level of optimism about the team moving forward.  Unfortunately, that core group of 76ers never reached that level again. We talk about the injuries and bad moves that led to the franchise going from potential dynasty to one of the worst in the league.  We couldn't talk about Philadelphia 76ers basketball without talking about Allen Iverson. Clearly, AI was an incredible player and cultural icon, but Tanya tells me just how much love the city has for him! We also talk about what it was like being in the city as he led the team back to the NBA Finals. Tanya also tells me about some other Philly basketball legends! We finish up the basketball talk with the current 76ers squad. Has the team met expectations for this season? Are they headed in the right direction? Tanya also gives a detailed breakdown of Joel Embiid's game.  Finally, Tanya tells me about the great work she's doing at Mom Your Business! She explains how she's working to address poverty in the Black community, the extra obstacles facing Black entrepreneurs, and why the success of Black women leads to the success of everyone!

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs did not land 2024 five star prospect Asa Newell, as he predictably went to Georgia to be closer to home and play with his brother. What is next for the Zags in the 2024 class, while we wait to hear about Zoom Diallo? And we discuss why Gonzaga isn't pursuing more players in 2024.Anton Watson was named to the Julius Erving preseason award watch list as the best small forward in the country - is he a small forward though? Could this be a sign the Zags will start a jumbo lineup with Graham Ike, Ben Gregg, and Watson?Finally, we close out the show discussing Gonzaga's 11 NBA players, fifth among college programs, and the tremendous job Mark Few and the staff have done to put players in the association.Discord Server: https://discord.gg/CbUB4F6gCLink to national college basketball national podcast: https://linktr.ee/LockedOncbbhttps://linktr.ee/LockedOnZagsLocked on Zags - Part of the Locked on Podcast Network.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BirddogsGo to birddogs.com/lockedoncollege or enter promo code LOCKEDONCOLLEGE for a free water bottle with any purchase.

Today we welcome George Mumford to the podcast. George is a globally recognized speaker, teacher, and coach. Since 1989, he's been honing his gentle, but groundbreaking mindfulness techniques with people from locker rooms to boardrooms. Michael Jordan credits George with transforming his on-court leadership, helping the Bulls to six NBA championships. George has also worked with Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal, and countless other NBA players, Olympians, executives, and artists. He is the author of The Mindful Athlete and Unlocked. In this episode, I talk to George Mumford about peak performance. How does one consistently perform at a high level? Whether it be work, sports, art or any other craft, George believes that everyone has the potential to excel. To unlock greatness, we must cultivate mental toughness, love, and learn to stay in the flow state. George talks about his experience coaching the Chicago Bulls, helping the team thrive on and off the court. We also touch on the topics of mindfulness, resilience, forgiveness, and joy.Website: georgemumford.comTwitter: @gtmumford Topics01:47 George's background & expertise06:53 Basketball with Julius Erving 09:36 Performance whisperer14:01 Being unlocked23:55 Coaching the Chicago Bulls 31:01 Staying in the flow state35:04 Mental toughness, love, forgiveness36:56 The Mamba Mentality41:02 Being breathed45:37 No struggle, no swag49:58 Recover your true self
