    OT: NFL Offices

    Pete Rozelle moved the NFL HQ from Philadelphia to NY when he was elected Commissioner in 1960. Anyone know where the NFL offices were in Philadelphia?

    I remember when NFL Films wsere in centger city, not far from Reading Terminal, when I worked downtown in the 60's, and then agin in the eartly 70's. I used to walk right past their offices on the way to 401 N. Broad St., right near the Inquirer and Daily news offices. Ahh - memories! We had a lousy team then too! :(

    The old NFL FIlms building is now Big Brothers Big Sisters of America's home office. Its on 13th street about a block away from the convention center.

    What a fascinating story. Maybe Rob Zombie should be writing a screenplay about Bert Bell instead of the BSB Flyers. He sounds like he was one hell of a character.
