Author Gives Recognition to 101 of the NFL’s Best Ever Players

Author Danny Jones has dedicated most of his life, over 50 years, preserving the legacies and memories of 101 all-time legendary NFL players from the past. They could score touchdowns with ease, but they can’t seem to find their way into the Hall of Fame. Why? His books focus on Pro Football’s unsung heroes of yesteryear. These guys were outstanding players who slipped through the cracks of immortality. Most of these stars had the talent and credentials to be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame- but are not. Many of these forefathers were pioneers and trailblazers in the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s.
 
Danny Jones’ new book, just released in September of 2018, is titled, “Trailblazers and Unsung Heroes: A License to Thrill- All-Time Football Greats of Yesteryear.” He chronicles the illustrious careers of 10 great athletes who shaped Pro Football in the 1960’s and 1970’s into America’s game and helped transcend football into a big business. It should be noted that 5 of these stars in this book were from the AFL. They were part of the growth of Pro Football and many more AFL players should be in the Hall of Fame. The 10 players in this book are: Frank Clarke, Bobby Joe Conrad, Boyd Dowler, Elbert Dubenion, Cookie Gilchrist, Charley Hennigan, John Jefferson, Keith Lincoln, Greg Pruitt, and George Webster.

The 101 stars in these 5 books were the biggest gate attractions in Pro Football. Jones has examined and provided an in-depth and up-close look at their accomplishments, game and season statistics, and longest touchdowns. The author’s selection of players is impressive: showcasing many colorful personalities and mavericks that were part of the shining era of the fabulous 50’s, glorious 60’s, party-loving 70’s, and the swinging 80’s. Enjoy the books.
