How far the NFL has fallen. This is beautiful all the way around.

Joe Kapp was one of the colleges, the CFL and the NFL's greatest quarterbacks.  Thi is a wonderful tribute to him and all of the Minnesota Vikings.

Joe Kapp is a Viking legend, all the old timers hail the tough accolades of Kapp and how he could take a hit and pull plays out of his ass. He is revered as one of the toughest Vikings to ever play.

Joe played in the TOUGHEST era ever!  Vs. Butkus too!!

Gotta love the old NFL films music and John Facenda, CLASSIC! No matter how hard they've  tried, even to this day, they have never been able to replace him. What a voice, and what a dramatic delivery he had!

i have never seen a quarterback hurdle a tackler as Kapp did. He was a lot to fun to watch. Thanks for posting

What a class act Joe was. You just don't find players nowadays like that with the  will and determination to win.

I love the VIKE'S and remember the open stadium and the cold teams had to play in. Real men back then.

A very humbled man, who took the time to be a guest at a small high school (Crystal City)in South Texas in the early 70's...I treasure the photograph I took with the man.

The inimitable voice of the irreplaceable John Facenda.

One of my favorite football players of all time.  Way to go, Joe!

You gotta love Joe Kapp -- I don't care who you are. You gotta love John Facenda -- "The voice of God"... To this day NFL films has yet to find a suitable voice since Facenda's passing.

Kapp had the "it" factor. What a dynamic leader! The man was truly all about team. The way he turned down the MVP award is so inspiring and admirabable.

Old school at its best. RIP Joe Kapp.

Joe Kapp was the epitome of tough.

This ones from Canada he's ours as well. Two Gray cups with B.C. lions winning in 1964.

What great memories of those awesome teams of the 60s and 70s. No SB wins, but still a lot of great football. Proud to be a Norsemen fan. Skol.

These old NFL film clips are so epic,  along with the voice.

Joe Kapp was Julius Caesar and Jim Finks was Brutus.

He was traded by the BC Lions, to the Minnesota Vikings for Jim Young. Like Joe Kapp, Jim Young is a CFL Hall of Famer.

"Before the 1967 CFL season, Kapp made the decision to return to the U.S. to play pro football. The AFL's Oakland Raiders, San Diego Chargers, and Houston Oilers were heavily pursuing him.

Kapp ended up signing with the NFL's Minnesota Vikings in a multi-player "trade" between the CFL and NFL teams, one of the very few transactions to ever occur between the two leagues."

Joe Kapp introduced into the American lexicon the term "macho," in a Sports Illustrated interview. He had to explain what that term means.
