Payton's humble nature, unmatched talent and memorable smile made him an everlasting image in the NFL's history and standard of excellence in the minds of players and fans both past and present. Yet behind the accolades, the life of an individual often described as Superman included challenging moments both during his career and while adjusting to life after football. The NFL Films-produced Walter Payton: A Football Life examines the life of Sweetness and the legacy of the Bears running back, built from an unyielding never die easy will that defined him from the days of running hills in suburban Chicago to his untimely passing in 1999.

Thank you for my one of my cherished super star football players of all time- Walter Payton. Thank you for this DVD of him from the 1980's so I can watch those golden moments he did magic on the field.

Sad that he is gone and sad that he was ...
Sad that he is gone and sad that he was not able to make peace with some parts of his life. This film could have glossed over some of the faults of its subject; to its credit, it did not. It still stands as a testament to Payton's burning desire to succeed and make his life matter, and that and how he went about his job are things we could all learn from.

Made Walter Payton come to life!
My 8 yo son loves football and Walter Payton is his favorite player of all time. So I got this DVD for him to use for a school project. They were instructed to use any material except the internet to gather information (I love that!). This DVD made Walter Payton literally come to life for him! It was amazing to see. That was a great Sunday afternoon together for the whole family (we watched it together).

The DVD was in terrific condition and shipped on time
Such a touching and inspiring story. The DVD was in terrific condition and shipped on time. I highly recommend this to anyone...not just football fans. Walter's story is a human story of defeat, pain, success and love.

Great DVD on the greatest player to play the game
Great DVD on the greatest player to play the game. Just as great of a person off the field. Sweetness was surely one of a kind. His work ethics and dedication to the game were unbelievable. There will never be another runningback like him. Thanks for the wonderful memories. Truly missed but not forgotten. RIP Walter.....

Walter Payton
This is a great film about a great man. My sons and I enjoyed watching Walter do his thing on the field. He and the 85 super bowl team made Chicago proud. Just one thing they should have let Payton get a touchdown in the super bowl

sweetness!!!!
walter payton è stato tra i primi 5 giocatori di ogni epoca della nfl. questo dvd, della durata di 45 minuti, ripercorre i momenti salienti della sua straordinaria carriera. dopo anni e anni di frustranti delusioni, in quanto i suoi chicago bears non erano all'altezza delle grandi, finalmente nel 1985 arriva il sospiratissimo titolo con la vittoria al superbowl.grande uomo e grande atleta, ci ha lasciato prematuramente nel 1999 a soli 54 anni. ancora oggi la sua jersey n.34 è tra le più vendute nella nfl.nel dvd c'è un bonus extra imperdibile, della durata di 22 minuti,la GOTW del 1977 tra bears e vikings dove sweetness corse per 276 yards.!!RIP SWEETNESS !!!
