Anyone remember parker Bro's game Pro draft from 1974?

Wondering if anyone remembers this game? it was a football draft game. You draft a football team using real football cards. The cards were 1974 Topps and the game included 50. I bought the game o Ebay a few years ago, but can't find the cards.

Anyway, I'm trying to remember about the cards. from research it seems as though the cards showed 1972 stats(instead of 1973), and also something else on the back is different. Have also read the cards are based on the year of issue (variation?). Would like to hear from anyone with some info. There was a story in SCD many years ago, but thats long gone!

    If I still have them, they are at my parents' house. I remember putting them in with my 1974 cards and then realized they were different. I do know that the All-Pro players in the Topps set came with the base design and different photo in the game set. I don't recall regarding the stats, but I also think the trademark line may have been different.

    The other thing that is different on the back is the number of asterisks (I think in the copyright?). I don't remember which is which, but the regular version and the Pro Draft version have different numbers of asterisks. I have some of the cards somewhere at home - if I can find them, I try and post a scan of the back.
