Roger Staubach | Dallas, Texas | January 7, 2008





Producer Notes





Why did we get to shoot at Texas Stadium? Why did security let us set-up on the field less than a week before the huge playoff game between the Cowboys and the Giants? Because we were shooting Roger Staubach, that’s why. Roger is a hero in Dallas. But he’s a humble guy in person. He showed up alone. “Who here’s a Giants fan?” he asked our New York based crew. We set up a shot in the visiting team’s tunnel from the locker room out to the field. “This is where Eli Manning will be walking on Sunday to start the biggest game of his career so far,” said Roger. He knows Eli and Peyton’s dad, NFL great, Archie Manning, and had watched both boys grow up. “And after the game, if they’ve lost, the team will be shuffling back up this tunnel. But if they’ve won, they’ll be hooting and hollering and banging their helmets against the walls.” Roger walked down through the tunnel and then, as if from long habit, broke into a run when he hit the field. He may be managing a giant commercial real-estate firm, but he’ll always be a football player first.
