DVD Transfer 102 primarily focuses on NFL action (fitting considering we're less than a week away from the start of the 2022 NFL season as I upload this) but includes about 10 minutes of a 1987 golf match. Picture quality starts off rough but improves after about a minute.
We begin with the FOX NFL Sunday pregame show's game previews (Buccaneers-Lions {as Bucs QB Trent Dilfer's struggles from 1995 - only 1 TD pass
going back to Week 4 - continued into 1996; while Tyoka Jackson subs for
injured defensive tackle Warren Sapp; while
Detroit's Zefross Moss starts at right tackle {Sam Rosen}; Falcons-Vikings {Minnesota QB Warren Moon's injury in Week 1 left him
as emergency quarterback while Brad Johnson gets his first start.
Vikings Derrick Alexander and Darryl Talley and Falcons Elbert Shelley
and Craig "Ironhead" Heyward also out} (Kenny Albert); Carolina-New Orleans {Rickey Jackson day; as the former Saints
standout has his number retired; while Kevin Greene and Lamar Lathon
collected 5 of Carolina's 7 sacks against the Falcons} (Mike Breen); New England-Buffalo {Patriots attempt to avoid 0-2 start; rookie WR
Terry Glenn would play hurt (Shawn Jefferson wouldn't play) and Bills
head coach Marv Levy joins Wall of Fame} (Eric Clemmons; barely visible
in front of a drenched camera lens); Washington-Chicago {following the Ronnie Lott-Bryan Cox interview;
Cox's impact is discussed (along with Washington's struggles)} (Matt
Millen)); discussion over the Rams-49ers game later that day (in which
the Niners romped 34-0); a tribute to Bill MacPhail (legendary head of CBS Sports as well as
CNN Sports who died the previous week on September 4); other game notes (KC-OAK; Chiefs won 12 of last 13 and no Jeff
Hostetler; BAL-PIT; 2nd game for Ravens with Mike Tomczak starting;
IND-NYJ; Colts looking for first 2-0 start since their last playoff year
in Baltimore in 1977; HOU-JAX; first time the Jaguars apparently were
favorites; CIN-SD; DEN-SEA; John Elway plays the most games of anyone in
a Bronco uniform; MIA-AZ; Dolphins' new running game with Karim
Abdul-Jabbar; PHI-GB; Monday night game) (Brown); Cowboys-Giants preview; with the focus on the Cowboys' struggles on
their opener (a series of mental mistakes; getting duped on gadget plays
and a frightening back injury suffered by Emmitt Smith) (includes
interview with sideline reporter Pam Oliver); Deion Sanders; here Prime Time discusses playing both ways (the
first player to do so on a regular basis since Chuck Bednarik in 1960)
-- albeit this was a result of Michael Irvin serving a 5-game suspension
following a March 1996 cocaine possession arrest (Oliver); Bryan Cox; featuring the new Bear linebacker whose intense, wild
on-field demeanor was tempered by his kinder, off-field approach (Lott); Final Comments; Ronnie Lott mentions Saints Winfred Tubbs; Greg
Jackson and Lorenzo Neal were benched due to missing a team meeting;
Howie predicts a heavy Giants blitz vs. Dallas; while Terry mentions
that Detroit would use Barry Sanders in goal-line situations (something
the Lions had typically avoided)...but as a receiver (panel)
On to the game itself; between the Washington Redskins (0-1; with Philadelphia beating them
17-14 despite Terry Allen's 111 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns) and
Chicago Bears (1-0 after hammering Dallas 22-6 at home on Monday night).
The Redskins would win a low-scoring clash 10-3. Dick Stockton and Matt
Millen handle the call at a humid RFK Stadium (following the departure
of Hurricane Fran; this would be the final season the Redskins played at
RFK)
This is followed by the bonus clip (from a different VHS tape I may upload later); the final round of the 1987 Honda Classic on March 8, 1987 (incidentally; three days after the uploader was born). This match would end in one of those classic sports "rags to riches"
stories; as Mark Calcavecchia (who one year earlier had been a caddy for
the tournament) clinched his victory.
Calling the action is a legend in sportscasting -- Vin Scully (Scully - who passed away just this past August - who worked golf coverage for NBC
when not doing his main role covering the Game of the Week for NBC's
baseball coverage in addition to having worked Los Angeles Dodgers games from 1950 until his retirement in 2016. He also was the 1B play-by-play broadcaster for CBS'
NFL coverage from 1975-81). Also covering the match are Marlene Floyd;
Bob Toski and I think Lee Trevino.
