dbpprop:abstract
  • Michael Thomas Bass is a former professional American football player who played defensive back for the Detroit Lions (1967) and the Washington Redskins (1969-1975). Before his National Football League career, Bass played for the University of Michigan. In his eight NFL seasons, Bass recorded 30 interceptions for 478 return yards and three touchdowns. He also recovered five fumbles and gained 105 yards on eight kickoff returns. He is best remembered for scoring the only points for the Redskins in Super Bowl VII, returning a botched pass attempt from Miami Dolphins placekicker Garo Yepremian after a blocked field goal 49 yards for a touchdown. This touchdown made Bass the last man drafted by legendary coach Vince Lombardi to score in a Super Bowl game. During a brief stint with the Detroit Lions, Bass had a small speaking part in the 1968 film adaptation of George Plimpton's book Paper Lion. In 1976, Bass was among several Washington Redskins players who appeared in the blaxploitation film Brotherhood of Death. However, when that film was released to DVD in 2005, Bass expressed dismay at the news, saying that he hadn't cared for the script and that to that date, he had never seen the picture.
