Pro football had a checkered history in Baltimore. In 1953, the Colts were brought from Dallas. After the acquisition of quarterback Johnny Unitas, the team became one of the best in the league. In 1958, the Colts won the championship with the New York Giants that fans call the greatest football game ever played. Tonight sportswriter William Gildea blends reminiscences of his boyhood in Baltimore with profiles of famous Colts players such as Johnny Unitas, Lenny Moore, Gino Marchetti, Raymond Berry, Art Donovan, and Y. A. Tittle in this personal and moving lecture.
