NFL: America's Game - Pittsburgh Steelers: The Story of Six Championships

"NFL: America's Game--Pittsburgh Steelers: The Story of Six Championships" has a singular distinction for me. It is the FIRST sports-related DVD that I have EVER bought, and nearly the first sports-related item of any kind. I'm not really a sports fan--I don't even have ESPN! However, as a native Pittsburgher, I do watch Steelers games whenever I can. So I happened to be wandering through Sam's Club one day and spotted this DVD on display at the end of an aisle (see, product placement does work). The brilliant yellow-and-black package practically leaped off the shelf at me. I picked one up and read the blurb on the back. It looked pretty interesting--a set of 6 DVDs covering each of the Steelers' Super-Bowl-winning seasons from 1974 through 2008, with game highlights, coach and player interviews, etc. So I ordered it from Amazon (the price was a little better, plus no sales tax--a no-brainer).All I can say is "Wow!" This is one of the slickest, best-produced, most remarkable documentary DVD sets that I've seen in many years. Each season gets about an hour of coverage, with a 45-minute-or-so feature program plus 10 or 15 minutes of special features. The set is everything I hoped for and then some--fascinating archival game and training footage, rare photographs, relevant interviews, outstanding narration, vibrant transfers, and on, and on. The quality, production values and sheer amount of information presented are outstanding. I haven't even watched all six seasons yet, and I'm still completely enthralled. What a great buy!If you're a Steelers fan and own a DVD player, you should buy this set. Oh, and make sure you pick up a Terrible Towel for Super Bowl XLIV...(or XLV or XLVI...).

"NFL: America's Game--Pittsburgh Steelers: The Story of Six Championships" is the best collection of sports DVDs I've ever seen! I've been a Steelers fan since 1971, when I moved there as a small child. I vaguely remember the first two Super Bowl wins and remember well the next two. Of course the most recent two are fresh in my mind. Each DVD presents a synopsis of the Super Bowl season mixed with commentary from old Steelers like Mean Joe Greene and Mel Blount. It was awesome to see these old heroes of mine talking about the games. The DVDs also gave me a greater appreciation for Chuck Noll, who was undoubtedly a genius. I couldn't recommend this product more for all Steelers fans, and even if you're just a regular football fan, you'll probably find these DVDs interesting. I'm so glad I bought this.

I got this for my mother, who has followed football, and the Pittsburgh Steelers in particular, since she was a child. I personally don't follow football, but she enjoyed this film, and tells me she enjoyed seeing the games of the 1970s Steelers team again.

This disc set is okay,IF you can get it cheap. I actually LIKE the overly dramatic style of the AMERICA'S GAME series. The problem with this DVD set is, I saw these first on NFL Network in HD. They're beautiful, with only the vintage Steeler footage in 4:3 and everything in excellent picture quality. So, I want an affordable blu-ray set. Could be two discs. C'mon, people.

My husband and I bought the America's Game DVD's after the Steelers won superbowl XL and we just purchased the newest one from Superbowl XLIII and we couldn't be happier. If you are a true Steeler fan and you love the team's history, you will love this DVD. The quality of the films are amazing. There's something about the music and the way that they are shot and edited...it's very dramatic and really get's you pumped up for the season! We love seeing all of the past players and their commentaries. We play it during every season and have never been disappointed.

Yes - these have all been shown on NFL Network, but it's nice to have the whole collection without taking up a ton of room on my DVR. I was disppointed to see that the DVD's were not widescreen, but they look just as good on a big screen HDTV as they did on NFL Network. Each episode also includes around 10 minutes of bonus footage. Really great stuff - hard to believe that any Steeler fan would be disappointed with this collection.

My dad is a a die hard Steelers fan! To get the gift of their history to watch & review whenever he wants was the perfect gift! He loved it!

It was a gift for my brother who is a die hard Steelers fan. He Loved it.
