Bobby Murcer is the mystery guest on this May 1971 episode. Soupy Sales, Gene Shalit, Phyllis Newman, and Arlene Francis are the panelists,
In Pittsburgh our NBC station Channel 11-then WIIC-did not broadcast the Jets-Raiders matchup, showing other programs.
BOBBY!! !XOXOXOXO
Football is the opiate of the masses.
to think they interupted an NFL game for a stupid kids movie. Thats grounds for firing everyone at NBC
FLASH!: Some people don't care about f'ball.
I'm not a football fan, so it didn't matter to me. But I remember the outrage and its aftermath.
I'm sure you heard a lot of "FUCK YOU, HEIDI!!" that day....
Wally Bruner, not doing it as an MC. Very boring
NBC also cut short the Bills-Chargers early game in order to start this one on time.
Phyllis Newman was so snotty...
All class...
It was amazing to see how Bobby grew into such a beloved personality.
Arlene’s a Giants fan. Bobby played in San Francisco starting in 1975.
One of baseball's class acts. RIP, Bobby. You are missed.
Soupy was a great baseball fan.
Glad it happened 🤣
RIP Bobby Murcer.He was my favorite Yankee of all time .In the Voice of the great Bill Sheppard #1 playing Centerfield batting 4th Bobby Murcer...... Murcer..
The Greatest!
My favorite all time ballplayer..will never forgive Steinbrenner for trading him..never.
Gabe Paul was the rat GM that traded him. The only good thing about that trade for Bobby Bonds was that Bonds was traded for Mickey Rivers and Ed Figueroa and they were key additions to championship team. At least Big Stein realized the error and brought him back- I could go off for hours my enjoyment of turning on game (against Blue Jays I believe) and seeing him lead off second base after a double not knowing he was back. for yrs I had to wait for the Sporting news to arrive to catch up with Murcer for years- no ESPN back then.
@@margaretmaskara9002 I remember that game against the Blue Jays. I was watching on TV. It was in Toronto.
you should get over it.
I remember this. I was 7 and thought Heidi was hot, so I had no issues with the NBC's decision.
My dad is STILL pissed about this if it's brought up. We don't bring it up.
Your dad needs to get over it!
Just goes to show you... anything can happen as long as there's enough time on the clock...
It's 2017. The Raiders uniforms are pretty much unchanged. Awesome...the one thing the organization does not need to fix.
With all that long hair , it's always possible that his hair interfered with his vision on rainy days. LOL
so many white players back then... bet no one took a knee during the anthem...
Who cares?
That whole thing with knees and the national anthem was then-President Trump's now 40-year vendetta against the NFL that dates back to 1983 when he attempted to buy the Cowboys for a then-record $50 Million but was rebuffed.
Ron Bloomberg!?!? C'Mon, Soup!
Bloomberg was the first Designated Hitter in MLB ever. Pretty significant in sports history. Ron or Bobby, yes.
Curt Gowdy was the best!
by far the best--Mr. Gowdy was very good friends with ABC's Roone Arledge who wanted Mr. Gowdy to be the announcer for MNF that was starting in 1970. However, NBC would not let Mr. Gowdy out of his contract so it never happened
recently ranked 10th as the greatest game in Oakland Raider history.....I live in Las Vegas, but I'm damned certain that if Oakland loses its Raiders, the fans will be inconsolable...you can tell even nearly 50 years ago, in THAT SAME OAKLAND COLISEUM that they play in today, the Raider fans really love their RRRRRRAIIDERSSSS
Oakland finished the season 12-2--had to go on to play KC (who also finished 12-2) in a playoff game (which they won 41-6)---and yet they had to go to New York to play the AFL championship game-although they had a better regular season record (the Jets were 11-3) and beat them in this regular season game--if the AFL championship had been in Oakland--the Raiders would have played the Colts in SB III.
In those days (if you follow MLB baseball playoffs the world series until about i think 2004 and the LCS/Division series until the late 1990's also did the same thing)) the League/later conference championship games roatated every year between the East and West Division winners regardless of regular season records. Remember also the Central *now the AFC/NFC North and South Divisions did not yet exist). Only in the mid 1970's did the NFL create it's modern post season seeding system where the division winners would get the top seed and the wild cards the lower seeds. With that said, I do agree if the Jets/Raiders Final following the '68 season was in Oakland, the Raiders might have won.
This is the actual NBC footage. However, Curt Gowdy was told soon after what had happened and was asked to do a voice-over re-creation of the TD calls specifically for this Huntley-Brinkley Report, as apparently NBC was unable to technically get the sound from the actual broadcast that was shown on the West Coast. Gowdy was not pleased at all and remained furious about it for the rest of his life.
+Alex Isabel Actually the Heidi bowl has crept into more recent sporting events as well. In 2007 in an Stanley Cup Semifinal game, also broadcasted on NBC the Sabres/Sens match was switched to then new cable sports channel now known as NBC sports Net. www.nytimes.com/2007/05/22/sports/hockey/22sandomir.html?_r=0And of course game 1 of the 2015 world series broadcasted on Fox in probably the biggest sports tv blunder on a major event since the 1968 Heidi game.
so this is why nbc only gets one sunday game while fox and cbs get two games
+Ed Stuart Ed not sure how old are you? Guys just explaining why the Heidi game had no effect on NBC NFL (then AFL coverage up till this day.)and not being mean lol. First of all Fox-TV did not exist in 1968. Second the AFC then the AFL was a separate league from the NFL during this game. After the AFL/NFL merger in 1970, NBC had the AFC TV package for nearly 30 years until CBS took over in 1998. NBC took over ABC Monday Night Package; in 2006 and moved it to Sunday Night. Sunday Night games was usually only 8-10 games mostly on ESPN from 1987-2005. The Heidi game had no influence on NBC up till now other than a few tv production guys being fired. Hope you now understand the NFL TV Contract history lesson. Class dismissed.
Thanks
Don't know what gave you that stupid idea.
What was NBC thinking that year ? The infamous "Heidi Bowl" Game ( NY Jets vs Oakland Raiders ).
Charlie smith is my uncle
if only Oakland was that good today...i wouldn't have to hesitantly admit my fanhood to the Raider Nation. Just win, baby!
best thing that ever happened to the AFL
football games come and go. Heidi's premiere comes but once.
I used to be a Yankee fan, but I always loved Bobby Murcer. Class act!
This is why football games stay on the air until the end. George Vreeland Hill
This is not long before Larry took over WML, right?
A great man and an all time Yankee. No body was prouder wearing the pinstripes. RIP
A GREAT YANKEE and he had very neat handwriting!!
Something similar to this would have happened recetly on brodcast TV becasue President Obama had to give a speech on a new jobs plan. It would have been at 8:00 on Wednesday night but was pushed back to Thursday night on the night of the Green Bay Packers game. In the end Obama gave his speech at 7:00 that evening.
I like Soupy Sales spontaneous appreciation of Bobby Murcer..Even though I was a Met fan...I always liked Bobby Murcer..a first class Man!
Wasn't there a graphic of Heidi holding a football behind the reporter when that clip was about to air?
at least we get a Curt Gowdy clip
A wonderful memory of the AFL.
@MegaObserver1: Actually, he returned to the Yankees during the 1979 season. Remember that amazing game that he basically won single handed against the Orioles the day Thurman Munson was buried. I went to the stadium a month later and saw him hit 2 homeruns in a game.
Whenever someone starts to say.."If they play 10 times, my team (who just lost) would win 9..." - they're using an idiotic philosophy that attempts to deflate a great win by new up and comig team that has just dethroned a long time winner - it helps cope with hurt feelings...you hear it a lot in college football...dismiss it when you hear it.
@Borntocoast 1968 CBS breaks into Vikings vs. Colts playoff game to update status of Apollo 8 as it on it's way to orbit the moon.
@Borntocoast Wasn't overtime in 1975 non sudden death?
The story I had heard about the "Heidi Bowl" was this: Back then, NBC Sports was part of NBC News, and NBC News chief Reuven Frank made the decision to keep the game telecast going and to air "Heidi" when the game ended. Supposedly, he tried to call the master control room at 30 Rock to tell the man on duty to keep the game going and not go start "Heidi" until the game ended. But the line was busy, because this tech was reportedly talking to his girlfriend!
Another story is that NBC programmer Dick Cline was instructed that "Heidi" would be broadcast regardless of whether it cut into the game or not. He had to make a decision and did what he was told. I was very young at the time and not a football fan, so it didn't matter to me. But the reaction was so severe that networks developed a new policy that sports events would no longer be interrupted.
@@spideraxis Actually, that became an NFL rule after that which required games to air to convlusion.
typical Jets. Even when, for the only time in their 50 year history, they had a good team.
