I'm truly passionate about basketball. I'm not as passionate about baseball as I am about basketball, but I watch baseball and I watch football. I love sports in general.
If you can show something as complicated as two people falling in love with just music and camera angles, well, just think about what you can do with football.
When we started in the early '60s, football had a little bit of a tradition. But, they didn't have a mythology. And NFL Films, through our music and our scripts and our photography, created a mythology for the sport.

Buck Laughlin: Now tell me, which one of these dogs would you want to have as your wide receiver on your football team?
I am basically turning football players into sprinters for a while. When we first talked about it, I didn't know how my expertise could be used.
