The son of an Italian immigrant butcher, Lombardi toiled for twenty frustrating years as a high school coach and then as an assistant at Fordham, West Point, and the New York Giants before his big break came at age forty-six with the chance to coach a struggling team in snowbound Wisconsin. His leadership of the Green Bay Packers to five world championships in nine seasons is the most storied period in NFL history. Lombardi became a living legend, a symbol to many of leadership, discipline, perseverance, and teamwork, and to others of an obsession with winning. In When Pride Still Mattered, Pulitzer Prize-winning author David Maraniss captures the myth and the man, football, God, and country in a thrilling biography destined to become an American classic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>* <A HREF=\"https:\/\/www.spectator.co.uk\/2018\/09\/macron-vs-salvini-the-ideological-battle-for-europes-future\/amp\/\">Christopher Caldwell: Macron vs Salvini: the ideological battle for Europe\u2019s future<\/a><\/p>\n<p>* <A HREF=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/news\/437719-jerusalem-post-idf-censor\/\">RT: Report on IDF funding Syrian rebels pulled on request of \u2018army\u2019s censor\u2019 \u2013 Jerusalem Post to RT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>* <A HREF=\"http:\/\/theothermccain.com\/2018\/09\/06\/cnns-favorite-republican-strategist\/\">Stacy McCain: CNN\u2019s Favorite \u2018Republican Strategist\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p>* <A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-6140677\/Bristol-Palin-calls-Dakota-Meyer-coward-days-marine-did-not-deserve-Medal-Honor.html\">Daily Mail<\/a>: Bristol Palin in fresh divorce drama: Teen Mom star calls ex Dakota Meyer a &#8216;coward b**ch&#8217; who did not deserve the Medal of Honor in texts posted by the marine, after she said he was holding her family photos hostage<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">UK.<\/p>\n<p>Only 9% of crimes end with suspects being charged.<\/p>\n<p>Violent crime, stabbings &amp; acid attacks on the soaring.<\/p>\n<p>But police have plenty of time for &#39;diversity training&#39; and raiding a child&#39;s Nerf gun party.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ShRIes9yYF\">https:\/\/t.co\/ShRIes9yYF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Paul Joseph Watson (@PrisonPlanet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PrisonPlanet\/status\/1037750510873395200?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 6, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>* <A HREF=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/big-government\/2018\/09\/06\/trumps-tight-labor-market-wins-u-s-construction-workers-higher-wages\/\">Breitbart: Trump\u2019s Tight Labor Market Wins U.S. Construction Workers Higher Wages<\/a><\/p>\n<p>* <A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-6140893\/Boris-Johnson-splits-lawyer-wife-Marina-accuses-fling.html\">Boris Johnson splits from his wife.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>* <A HREF=\"https:\/\/pjmedia.com\/trending\/kamala-harris-harasses-kavanaugh-on-robert-mueller-charlottesville-white-supremacist-terms\/\">PJ Media: Kamala Harris Harasses Kavanaugh on Robert Mueller, Charlottesville, &#8216;White Supremacist&#8217; Terms<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>00:00 Vince Lombardi bio 1:30:00 Kamala Harris, Cory Booker at the Brett Kavanaugh hearings 1:33:00 Boris Johnson heads for his second divorce, future PM of Great Britain 1:40:00 UK&#8217;s crime spiral, anarcho-tyranny 1:42:00 Bristol Palin and that term &#8220;trailer trash&#8221; &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/?p=123552\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[42720,21791,216,37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-123552","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-alt-right","category-america","category-football","category-israel"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123552","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=123552"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123552\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":149912,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123552\/revisions\/149912"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=123552"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=123552"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=123552"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
