Biography

Joseph Clifford Montana Jr., nicknamed "Joe Cool" and "the Comeback Kid," is widely regarded as one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. Born June 11, 1956, in New Eagle, Pennsylvania, Montana grew up in Monongahela and starred at Ringgold High School in football, basketball, and baseball. At Notre Dame, he became legendary for late-game heroics, including the 1979 Cotton Bowl "Chicken Soup Game" where he overcame hypothermia to lead the Fighting Irish from a 34-12 deficit to a 35-34 victory over Houston. Drafted 82nd overall by the San Francisco 49ers in 1979's third round, Montana spent 14 seasons in San Francisco before finishing his career with the Kansas City Chiefs (1993-1994). With the 49ers, he won four Super Bowls (XVI, XIX, XXIII, XXIV) and became the first player ever to be named Super Bowl Most Valuable Player three times. He also holds Super Bowl career records for most passes without an interception (122 in four games) and the all-time highest passer rating of 127.8. His undefeated 4-0 Super Bowl record remains legendary. Montana's strengths defined clutch performance: ice-cold composure under pressure, pinpoint accuracy (63.2% career completion percentage), exceptional decision-making (92.3 career passer rating), and an uncanny ability to orchestrate comeback victories—32 fourth-quarter comebacks in his career. Sports Illustrated named him the number-one clutch quarterback of all time. His greatest moments became instant NFL lore: "The Catch"—January 10, 1982, NFC Championship versus Dallas, Montana's 6-yard touchdown pass to Dwight Clark with 51 seconds remaining completed an 89-yard drive and sent the 49ers to Super Bowl XVI; "The Drive"—Super Bowl XXIII, Montana methodically marched the 49ers 92 yards in the final minutes, throwing a 10-yard game-winning touchdown to John Taylor with 34 seconds left for a 20-16 victory over Cincinnati; and Super Bowl XXIV—Montana threw a then-record five touchdown passes in a 55-10 demolition of Denver, the most lopsided Super Bowl victory in history. Montana was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2000, earned eight Pro Bowl selections, and had his No. 16 jersey retired by the 49ers. After football, Montana co-founded Liquid 2 Ventures in 2015, becoming a successful venture capitalist. He owns horses, produces wine under the label Montagia, and actively supports the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Sidewalks Entertainment is a long-running, weekly American television series that is a combination of a talk show, magazine show and variety show featuring celebrity interviews, music, artistic and novelty acts, and rising performers. The 30-minute program is primarily produced in the San Francisco Bay Area with segments from other parts of the country, including Los Angeles and New York. Richard R. Lee is the creator and executive producer, as well as lead editor and webmaster of SidewalksTV.com. On-air personalities Cindy Rhodes and Rafael Siegel are also co-producers. During the first six years, the show was known as Sidewalks. The producers decided to add Entertainment to the program's title, so viewers would understand it was an entertainment show and not a show related to public works or about concrete walkways. On websites and television grids, the program is listed as Sidewalks Entertainment, although hosts, guests and on-air graphics may still refer to the program as Sidewalks. As of April 14, 2007, the show has produced 256 regular editions, along with a number of special episodes and temporary shows.

The Early Show is an American morning television show which was broadcast by CBS from New York City from 1999 to 2012. The program aired live from 7 to 9 a.m. Eastern Time Monday through Friday in the Eastern time zone; most affiliates in the Central, Mountain, and Pacific time zones aired the show on tape-delay from 7 to 9 a.m. local time. The Saturday edition aired live from 7 to 9 a.m. Eastern Time as well, but a number of affiliates did not carry it or aired it later on tape-delay. It premiered on November 1, 1999, and was the newest of the major networks' morning shows, although CBS has made several attempts to program in the morning slot since 1954. The show aired as a division of CBS News. The Early Show, like many of its predecessors, traditionally ran last in the ratings to its rivals, NBC's Today and ABC's Good Morning America. Much like NBC's The Today Show and The Tonight Show, the title The Early Show was analogous to that of CBS's late-night talk show, The Late Show.
