David Harris, author of "The Genius: How Bill Walsh Reivented Football and Created an NFL Dynasty," gives a colorful example of what kind of guy Bill Walsh was as a younger man, and how he was an excellent general manager in addition to head coach. The full interview from a 2008 episode of "Conversations On The Coast with Jim Foster" can be heard now wherever you get your podcasts.

Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971)

I hate doing this, but everyone does it, and there’s a reason for that. Bedknobs and Broomsticks is amusing… if you’ve seen Mary Poppins so many times you need a break from it. This is not a bad movie. It's just that while Mary Poppins is a timeless classic, this is more of an amusing distraction.

Set in 1940’s England, Charlie (Ian Weighill), Carrie (Cindy O'Callaghan), and Paul Rawlins (Roy Snart) are evacuated from London and placed in the care of Miss Eglantine Price (Angela Lansbury), who they discover is a witch-in-training. In exchange for their silence, Miss Price agrees to take them on adventures while she searches for the final lesson of her witchcraft course.

Let’s get the comparisons out of the way. Like Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks features a whimsical story about small children being taken care of by a magical woman, they go on wild adventures (including a land that’s entirely animated), there are songs and dances, everyone speaks with a British accent and David Tomlinson (whom you'll recognize as Mr. Banks) plays a prominent role. When comparing the two, there’s a clear winner. Is it unfair? I don’t think so. This film was obviously made to re-capture some of the magic from the multiple award-winning musical. It even has the Sherman Brothers composing the songs. It’s not as good, but that’s ok. Few films are.

Bedknobs and Broomsticks is light and whimsical… despite being set during wartime and a Nazi featuring prominently in the climax. It sounds weird, and it is but while it plays out, you don't second-guess it because this is a movie for younger children. It’s about three kids who are down on their luck and are delighted to find out that their caretaker is a witch. All it takes is an enchanted bedpost to whisk them away from the doldrums of the world and into a place where anything can happen.

Angela Lansbury and David Tomlinson resonate charm and perfectly fit their parts. They are both asked to do some slapstick work and both succeed at making you laugh. As for the kids, they're fine for their age - you give them a break because they're so sweet. When everyone goes full-on into adventure mode and they begin exploring strange worlds with talking animals, it gets delightfully silly. It's basically impossible not to crack a smile. I’ve got mixed feelings about the ending of the film though. The special effects are excellent, it features some of the picture's funniest segments. Then, it ends on a note I think is supposed to be optimistic but sure doesn't feel right.

There’s more good than bad in Bedknobs and Broomsticks by far. The film's biggest weakness is that you can’t help but compare it to another and that the gap between first place and second is quite vast. If you remember enjoying it as a kid and you still have that old VHS somewhere in a box, dig it out and view it again. I like this movie, but rent it before you decide to spend a lot on the super special edition Blu-ray. (On VHS, August 31, 2015)

Did you know that Super Bowl XIX saw the late great 49ers coach and NFL visionary, employ a fiendish strategy to best legendary Don Shula and the Dolphins. That strategy was during halftime, Walsh pipped in false spoilers about ABC's McGruder & Loud which was set to premiere after the game. This unsettled the Fins into a listless 2nd Half effort, which San Francisco capitalized to complete the 38-16 drubbing. #SuperBoskifact #Boskifacts #superbowlxix #SanFrancisco49ers #MiamiDolphins #McgruderandLoud #tvofthe80s #spoileralert #BillWalsh #DonShula #StanfordStadium #MontanavsMarino #whoknew

“Invest quality time with quality people.” Always an honor to spend time with my mentor and great friend Bill Walsh, especially when I can isolate him on an aircraft and pick his brain!

Understanding life through the eyes of a millionaire is very interesting. Thank you Bill Walsh for all the great tips about growth and also never forgetting about the less fortunate. And thanks to Ricardo Rodriguez for the opportunity. #billwalsh #rainmaker #mindsetcoach #theothermiami #miami #powerteam (at Farfalle Miami)
