Hi Scott,
Here's the clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdXsV4veLWI It's really loaded with plays - much better than the one on the 37 game because it includes so many non-scoring plays esp. Nagurski runs - those are pretty hard to find. Right, Nagurski was a tough interview - Myron Cope tried to get him for his book and he said "I don't have time to reminisce". I loved seeing Dent introduce Nagurski in the NFL Top 100 and I think he did a nice job, but I still feel let down by the book. In the book's intro, Dent says that he interviewed Nagurski's sister and Okie Miller and that Chris Willis from NFL films sent him lots of material, etc. so there was a lot of potential there. But after some fact checking, I kind of view it like the Friday Night Lights movie with Nagurski as Boobie Miles. Some of what was in there about Miles checked out historically and some didn't. The main difference is I expect that from Hollywood, but I didn't expect it from a biography - it kind of snuck up on me. To be fair though, trying to write a book that does justice to the character described in this scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-IHxD_4JP0 isn't an enviable task, so you have to cut him some slack
