...supreme challenge to gluttons is posed by the $10 Fiesta dinner offered by the Club El Bianco on Chicago's Southwest Side. The three-to four-hour Super Bowl of Gluttony begins with appetizers (bean salad, salami and pepperoni) and a vast antipasto tray, continues with soup, tossed salad, stuffed peppers, ribs, eggplant parmigiana, veal scallopini, chicken cacciatore and piles of pasta. Dessert includes pastries, fruit and cookies, followed by a nut cart. If anyone complains that he is still hungry, Manager Peter Bianco Jr. has a secret weapon that few could stomach: a huge submarine sandwich topped...
...Boston University's leading scorer-as a defensive back. Most impressive of all are the incredible giants who toil in the trenches, the 260-and 270-lb. defensive linemen who are often as fast as their teams' running backs. The key player on last year's Super Bowl Champion Dallas Cowboys is eleven-year Veteran Defensive Lineman Bob Lilly. "Mean Joe" Greene of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Claude Humphrey of the Atlanta Falcons are the class of their respective teams. Nothing underscored the defense's mushrooming superiority as much as the selection last year of Minnesota...

Says Teammate Larry Grantham: "It takes everybody a while to get his feet on the ground. I don't see how he handled it as well...
After a couple of years of frustrating injuries, Namath's return to the game now seems complete. His Jets will not likely go on to the Super Bowl this year-their defense simply does not measure up-but under Namath's creative guidance they should continue to be the most daring and resourceful riders on the pro football plains. As for Namath himself-well, no one changes overnight, and things would not be as much fun if Joe Namath did. He has mellowed somewhat. He takes care of his family and invests his money in restaurants off suspiciously...
