 |  |  | wide receiver: Encyclopedia II - Super Bowl - History
Super Bowl - Origins.
The Super Bowl was created as part of the merger agreement between the National Football League (NFL) and its rival, the American Football League (AFL).

 |  |  | wide receiver: Encyclopedia II - American and Canadian football position names - Age of confusionThe trend of naming offensive positions for the role or build of player in it continued. In some cases, this obfuscates important details. A recent diagram of a short punt formation for offense in youth football had no quarterback, but two fullbacks at the depth of the QB shown above, and a halfback at the position labeled FB above. Some discussions of the single wing previously diagrammed claim it has no quarterback. And many's the time when a player in the farthest back position, in a formation similar to the short punt shown above, is ref ...

 |  |  | wide receiver: Encyclopedia II - Super Bowl XXIII - Game summaryAfter the two teams traded punts on their first drives of the game, the 49ers, aided by a roughing the passer penalty, marched 73 yards from their own 3-yard line to the Bengals 24. But dropped passes, including one by receiver Mike Wilson on the 2-yard line, forced them to settle for a 41-yard field goal from kicker Mike Cofer.
On the 49ers next drive, Montana threw a pass to wide receiver Jerry Rice, who first tipped it to himself and then made a one-handed catch before stepping out of bounds at the San Francisco 45-yard line. Then ...

Washington Redskins - Establishment in Boston.
The city of Boston, Massachusetts was awarded an NFL franchise in 1932, under the ownership of George Preston Marshall.

However, one antic which backfired was the infamous Pepto Bismol incident.
