Wow. That's a wonderful story. Thank you (and the other commenters who've worked for NFL Films) for sharing.

I don't know if I agree with you on the "stable two-parent families" bit. Batman's parents were murdered. Superman's blew up. Peter Parker's died, then one of his surrogate parents got murdered.
