  • Nothing Minor About It the American Association/AFL of 1936-50
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 12, No. 2 (1990) Nothing minor about it The American Association/AFL of 1936-50 By Bob Gill Try as I might, I can’t seem to mention the era before World War II without calling it “the heyday of pro football’s minor leagues.” But it’s not just an idle comment. In the 1930s several flourishing regional “circuits” of independent teams coalesced into outstanding minor leagues. From today’s perspective, one of the least likely locales for such a circuit was the New York-New Jersey area, where fans had the New York Giants and the Brooklyn Dodgers to satisfy their hunger for pro football. Despite that, the area produced the best of all the pre-war minor leagues: the American Association (soon to be immortalized in another best-selling PFRA publication). The AA was formed in June 1936, in response to a proposal by Edwin (Piggy) Simandl, manager of the Orange Tornadoes. Charter members were Brooklyn, Mt. Vernon, New Rochelle, Orange, Passaic, Paterson, Staten Island and White Plains. Several of these cities had been represented in two earlier leagues, the 1932 Eastern League and the 1933 Interstate League, both of which failed after a single season. However, those leagues didn’t have Joe Rosentover as president. Despite the early demise of his own Passaic club, Rosentover remained at the helm of the league for its whole existence. The AA’s first season was somewhat like that of its main rival, the Dixie League, which also opened for business in 1936. No team established any clear superiority, and at the end of November Rosentover announced a playoff series matching the top four teams, two each from what the newspapers sometimes called the New York group and the New Jersey group.

  • THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 11, No. 5 (1989)
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 11, No. 5 (1989) Not Only the Ball Was Brown BLACK PLAYERS IN MINOR LEAGUE FOOTBALL, 1933-46 by Bob Gill and Tod Maher As most of you know, between 1933, when Joe Lillard played for the Chicago Cardinals and Ray Kemp for Pittsburgh, and 1946, when Kenny Washington and Woody Strode joined the Los Angeles Rams, the NFL had an unofficial ban on black players. But back in the 1920s, a few blacks had indeed played in the NFL, some of them very well. That raises an interesting question: Where did comparable black players of the '30s go? Among its other virtues, Thomas Smith's fine article in the last Coffin Corner ("Outside the Pale") included short profiles of several blacks who starred on integrated college teams during the period. In passing, he also noted that more than one of them did play professional football (though he sometimes mislabels it "semi-pro") outside the NFL. There were black touring teams, occasional blacks playing on integrated teams, a couple of all-black teams playing in leagues with white clubs, and even one all-black league something like a lower-class version of baseball's Negro Leagues. We're going to take a look at just what was going on "outside the pale" in those days. The following article, by Tod Maher, concerns what Smith calls (correctly) "the most successful" all-black team of the period: the New York Brown Bombers. The Brown Bombers by Tod Maher 1933 was a notable year for the NFL. It was the first in which the league was divided into regional divisions.

    Ed Fallenstein “Carl Hubbell’s Nemisis” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com Far from being a household name, Boston Braves pitcher Ed Fallenstein garners national April 30, 1933 attention on April 30, 1933, when making his Braves Field, Boston, Mass. first career start he shutouts the visiting New York Giants in front of 35,000 at Braves Field in Boston, out-dueling Hall of Famer Carl Hub- bell in the process. Fallenstein’s unexpected mound gem comes five days after pitching three scoreless innings in relief against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 24-year-old Newark, New Jersey, native limits Bill Terry’s Giants to three hits - two by first baseman Sam Leslie - while striking out two and walking one. However, over his next seven games, including three starts, the 6-foot-3, 180-pound right- hander reverts back to form going 1-1 with a 5.48 ERA while allowing 37 hits and 11 walks in 23 innings before being sent to the Buffalo Bisons of the International (AA) League on Ed Fallenstein August 4. 1931 Philadelphia Phillies After losing his only start with the Bisons and dropping his career minor league record to 9-22, Fallenstein is sent to the New York-Penn (A) League’s Harrisburg Senators where he takes the hill twice in the season’s final weeks. That December, the Senators invite the less than successful hurler to the team’s 1934 spring training. However, on April 4, 1934, less than four weeks prior to the season opener, Harrisburg president Bob Fuchs announces that Fallenstein has decided to retire and enter into business and play only semipro baseball with the Belmar (N.J.) Braves during the upcoming summer.

A man named Charles Weatherby wrote "I recently completed a 10,000 word biography of former major league baseball player Bayard H. `Bud' Sharpe, West Chester's most popular athlete from the mid-1890s to 1916" and asked if I would consider posting it. After reading his work and offering some suggestions, I've posted his final draft on this web site.
