"Sample stories from Tough Stuff, where Sam Huff talks about. Jim Brown: "Now I look down the field, and there's the biggest running back I've ever seen. He's got huge shoulders and arms, no hips, and huge legs, the perfectly built human being.It's early in the third quarter, and here comes Jim Brown through a hole and I'm thee to meet him. I hit that big sucker head on and my head gear came down and cut my nose and my teeth hit together so hard the enamel popped off. He broke my nose, broke my teeth, and knocked me cold." Frank Gifford: "Frank caught the ball and was trying to get across the field when Chuck Bednarrik nailed him. Chuck weighted about 240 and hung Frank out on his arm, just clotheslined him and smacked him on the chin.They took him to the locker room on a stretcher, and I remember going into our defensive huddle and everybody saying, 'It's all over for Frank, no way he can survive that hit.' As we walked toward the locker room, a couple of medical people were wheeling out a body on a stretcher from the training room. It was covered with a sheet and now everybody was really shaking. "'Oh my God,' somebody said. 'It's Frank.'" Vince Lombardi: "Lombardi would call for his grass drills, the true torture of training camp. You'd start running in place, and he'd holler 'on your belly ' or 'on your back' and you'd hit the dirt, then pop up when he'd yell 'on your feet.' We'd do fifteen or twenty of those and then he'd look over at me and Sonny [Jurgensen]. We were usually in the second or third row, not real conspicuous but close enough so that he could see were weren't dogging it. He'd stop the grass drills when he thought Sonny and I were about to die." - from the rear outer jacket. " Sam Huff is one of the legends of professional football, the man in the middle of the great New York Giants' defenses of the 1950s and 1960s. When he and his fellow defenders jogged onto the field during home games, 62,000 fans would chant "HUFF! HUFF! HUFF!" and "DEE-fense! DEE-fense!" As a rookie in 1956, he started on a world champion team (the Giants' last until 1986); he appeared on the cover of Time magazine in 1959; he was the subject of a breakthrough television documentary, The Violent World of Sam Huff, narrated by Walter Cronkite; and, after being traded in 1964 and playing five years with the Washington Redskins, he was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Tough Stuff is Sam Huff's life story, from his youth in West Virginia mining country through his extraordinary career. Football fans will savor every anecdote about the rough, gritty days of football past, including: *How Tom Landry developed the Giants' famous 4-3 defense; *Huff's great rivalries with Jim Brown and Jim Taylor'; * The inside story of "the greatest game ever played": the New York Giants/Baltimore Colts showdown in the 1958 championship game; *The day they thought Frank Gifford ahd been killed by a violent tackle; *Why Huff will never forgive Allie Sherman; *The Trade: Sonny Jurgensen, Vince Lombardi, and the Redskins. Filled with vivid recollections of teammates and rivals - Rosey Grier, Andy Robustelli, Charlie Conerly, Pat Summerall, Y.A. Tittle, Johnny Unitas, Mike Ditka, and many others - Tough Stuff is the real stuff on the golden age of football." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

First Printing. 22 cm, 256 pages, illus., front DJ flap price clipped, former owner's name & address on half-title. Inscribed by the co-author (Shapiro). Leonard Shapiro has been an award-winning journalist at The Washington Post since 1969, when he joined the paper after graduating from the University of Wisconsin and earning a Masters degree from the University of Missouri. Within two years was the paper's beat writer covering the Washington Redskins and their coach, George Allen for most of the 1970s. In 1980, he was named assistant sports editor of The Post, and three years later was named sports editor, in charge of the day-to-day operation. In 1990, after writing his third book, he decided to return to his first love - writing and reporting. Since then, he's covered professional golf, the NFL and writes a weekly sports television column, as well as a number of other assignments for The Post. He's written three books, contributed to many others and his work has appeared in Golf Magazine, Golf World; Newsweek, Readers Digest, The Sporting News, Pro Football Weekly, and the International Herald Tribune. Introduction by Tom Landry. The story of Sam Huff and his professional career in professional football. Robert Lee "Sam" Huff (born October 4, 1934) is a former American football linebacker in the National Football League (NFL) for the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1982. Huff joined the Redskins in 1964 and they agreed to pay him $30,000 in salary and $5,000 for scouting, compared to the $19,000 he would have made another year with New York. The impact Huff had was almost immediate and the Redskins' defense was ranked second in the NFL in 1965.On November 27, 1966, Huff and the Redskins beat his former Giant teammates 72-41, in the highest-scoring game in league history. After an ankle injury in 1967 ended his streak of 150 straight games played Huff retired in 1968. Vince Lombardi talked Huff out of retirement in 1969 when he was named Washington's head coach. The Redskins went 7-5-2 and had their best season since 1955 (which kept Lombardi's record of never having coached a losing NFL team intact). Huff then retired for good after 14 seasons and 30 career interceptions. He spent one season coaching the Redskins' linebackers in 1970. After leaving the NFL, Huff took a position with J. P. Stevens in New York as a textiles sales representative. He later joined the Marriott Corporation as a salesman in 1971, rising to vice president of sports marketing before retiring in 1998. While with Marriott, Huff was responsible for selling over 600,000 room nights via a partnership between the NFL and Marriott that booked teams into Marriott branded hotels for away games.After retiring from football, Huff spent three seasons as a color commentator for the Giants radio team and then moved on in the same capacity for the Redskins Radio Network, where he remained until his retirement at the end of the 2012 season, calling games alongside former Redskins teammate Sonny Jurgensen and play-by-play announcers Frank Herzog (1979 to 2004) and Larry Michael (2005 to 2012). He was also a broadcaster for a regionally syndicated TV package of Mountaineer football games in the mid-1980s.…
