Bill Lilley’s recent write-ups of his 1972 Dolphins replay (reissue season calculated for master boards) deftly recapture the magic of those colorful ’70s APBA football brochures. Small wonder — turns out he’s a newsman like myself. Now living in Thailand, he hails from near Canton, Ohio (and just missed out on our inaugural 2013 conference at the Pro Football Hall of Fame). In our deep-dive interview, we talk about the Seitz, Light and Herson eras, the beauty of the game engine driving the numbers on the cards, his experiences almost winning the official APBA baseball tourney and, of course, his start in the game decades ago.
