Magnificent Seven brings a out only those seven games, but also to share in little-known stories from the legend of Vince Lombardi. Merlyn "Bud" Lea was the beat reporter for the Milwaukee Sentinel when the Green Bay Packers won the first two Super Bowls. Lea was hired by the Sentinel in 1953 and covered his first Packers games that season. He covered the Packers for 19 seasons. He subsequently covered them as the Sentinel's sports editor and columnist prior to his retirement in 1995. Thereafter, Lea continued to write columns about the team for Packer Plus, a weekly magazine. Lea was known for his thorough, objective and aggressive coverage of the team. In fact, the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame adopted an award in his name. Lea also authored "Magnificent Seven: The Championship Games That Built the Lombardi Dynasty," which was published in 2002. Lea covered all nine of Vince Lombardi's teams, including the five that won NFL championships in the 1960s. At the national level, Lea covered 30 Super Bowls. Lea's most memorable years as a writer were covering Lombardi's teams. Vernon Biever was the official team photographer for the Green Bay Packers starting in 1946. He was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame in 2002. John Biever was a staff photographer for Sports Illustrated. Vincent Thomas Lombardi (June 11, 1913 - September 3, 1970) was an American football coach and executive in the National Football League (NFL). He is best known as the head coach of the Green Bay Packers during the 1960s, where he led the team to three straight and five total NFL Championships in seven years, in addition to winning the first two Super Bowls at the conclusion of the 1966 and 1967 NFL seasons. Lombardi began his coaching career as an assistant and later as a head coach at St. Cecilia High School in Englewood, New Jersey. He was an assistant coach at Fordham, the United States Military Academy and the New York Giants before becoming head coach of the Green Bay Packers from 1959 to 1967 and the Washington Redskins in 1969. He never had a losing season as head coach in the NFL, compiling a regular-season winning percentage of 73.8% (96-34-6), and 90% (9-1) in the postseason for an overall record of 105 wins, 35 losses and 6 ties in the NFL. Lombardi is considered by many to be the greatest coach in football history, and he is recognized as one of the greatest coaches and leaders in the history of all American sports. The year after his sudden death from cancer in 1970, he was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and the NFL Super Bowl trophy was named in his honor.
