Summary |
"You Are Looking Live! is the story of how one live television show in 1975 captured the excitement of the country, and launched four magnetic personalities to stardom: Brent Musburger, Phyllis George, Irv Cross and Jimmy The Greek Snyder. It explores some of America's most enduring obsessions - football, sex, race, and gambling-- all told through the lens of the fashion, music, and pop culture of the 70's and 80's. It's the Madmen of NFL Broadcasting-a close-up look at the people who created the The NFL Today-including their human flaws and their battles for airtime that often led to front-page headlines. Those four personalities battled each other and the competition, and as a result became pop culture icons"-- Provided by publisher. |
