  • 1941 Championship Game
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 8, No. 2 (1986) 1941 CHAMPIONSHIP GAME By Bob Carroll The 1941 National Football League Championship Game was held two weeks after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Held on even terms for more than a half, the Chicago Bears won their second consecutive National Football League Championship by defeating the New York Giants 37-9 with a surge of power in the last two periods. A pair of touchdowns in the third quarter followed by another pair in the fourth made the Bears the first team to repeat as champions since the institution of the league championship game. A skimpy crowd of 13,341 – smallest of the season at Wrigley Field – saw the contest. The gate, smaller than that netted when these same two teams met in a pre-season exhibition game, cut heavily into the participating players' pool. Each Bear received $430.94; each Giant $288.70. The second place teams – the Packers and Brooklyn – divided a pool of $1,564.04. The gross receipts, including radio, were $46,184.05. In part, the crowd was held down by the anticlimactic nature of the game; the Giants were given little chance of derailing the Bears' championship express. Even more responsible was the depressing news coming out of the Pacific where American forces were retreating before the Japanese. Football seemed rather unimportant when viewed in context of the world situation. Two players who appeared in the game – Young Bussey and John Lummus – would be killed in action before the war ended. The Bears were kept in the game during the first half by the sure foot of Bob Snyder who booted three field goals, but the second half produced a deluge of Chicago points.

  • Remember the Cleveland Rams?
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 4 (1985) Remember the Cleveland Rams? By Hal Lebovitz (from the Cleveland Plain Dealer, January 20, 1980) PROLOGUE – Dan Coughlin, our bubbling ex-baseball writer, was saying the other day, “The Rams are in the Super Bowl and I’ll bet Cleveland fans don’t even know the team started right here.” He said he knows about the origin of the Rams only because he saw it mentioned in a book. Dan is 41. He says he remembers nothing about the Rams’ days in Cleveland. “Probably nobody from my generation knows. I’d like to read about the team, how it came to be, how it did, why it was transferred to Los Angeles. I’ll bet everybody in town would. You ought to write it.” Dan talked me into it. What follows is the story of the Cleveland Rams. If it bores you, blame Coughlin. * * * * Homer Marshman, a long-time Cleveland attorney, is the real father of the Rams. He is now 81, semi- retired, winters in his home on gold-lined Worth Avenue in Palm Beach, Fla., runs the annual American Cenrec Society Drive there. His name is still linked to a recognized law firm here – Marshman, Snyder and Corrigan – and he owns the Painesville harness meet that runs at Northfield each year. The team was born in 1936 in exclusive Waite Hill, a suburb east of Cleveland. Marshman vividly recalls his plunge into pro football. “A friend of mine, Paul Thurlow, who owned the Boston Shamrocks, called me. He said a new football league was being formed.

  • Mcafee Takes a Handoff from Sid Luckman (1947)
    by Jim Ridgeway George McAfee takes a handoff from Sid Luckman (1947). Ironton, a small city in Southern Ohio, is known throughout the state for its high school football program. Coach Bob Lutz, head coach at Ironton High School since 1972, has won more football games than any coach in Ohio high school history. Ironton High School has been a regular in the state football playoffs since the tournament’s inception in 1972, with the school winning state titles in 1979 and 1989. Long before the hiring of Bob Lutz and the outstanding title teams of 1979 and 1989, Ironton High School fielded what might have been the greatest gridiron squad in school history. This nearly-forgotten Tiger squad was coached by a man who would become an assistant coach with the Cleveland Browns, general manager of the Buffalo Bills and the second director of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The squad featured three brothers, two of which would become NFL players, in its starting eleven. One of the brothers would earn All-Ohio, All-American and All-Pro honors before his enshrinement in Canton, Ohio. This story is a tribute to the greatest player in Ironton High School football history, his family, his high school coach and the 1935 Ironton High School gridiron squad. This year marks the 75th anniversary of the undefeated and untied Ironton High School football team featuring three players with the last name of McAfee. It was Ironton High School’s first perfect football season, and the school would not see another such gridiron season until 1978.

    Football History Highlights Category: Group Activity Series: The NFL at a Glance (Amazing NFL Stories: 12 Highlights from NFL History) Supplies Multiple copies of Amazing NFL Stories: 12 Highlights from NFL History, access to Football history timeline: http://www.profootballhof.com/football-history/history-of-football/ Prep Ask students to read Amazing NFL Stories: 12 Highlights from NFL History or read it together as a class. Skim through the Football history timeline, using the attached Timeline Summary to note the most important events. Directions Ask the students to summarize a few of the chapters of Amazing NFL Stories. Help them notice the kinds of stories the chapters tell (a first-time accomplishment, a change in how the game was played, a rival league, or an all-time record). Split the students into six groups. Assign each group a date range: • 1869 to 1919 • 1960 to 1979 • 1920 to 1939 • 1980 to 1999 • 1940 to 1959 • 2000 to present (Note: On the Football History timeline, all events 1869 to 1939 are in the same category. Since that category is the longest, this activity splits it in half.) Have each group read all the events in their date range on the Football History timeline, looking for the kinds of key events that are described in Amazing NFL Stories. Each group should choose 8 years from their date range that they feel included the most important events. They should write down each year, along with a summary (two or three sentences) of the events that make it important. Evaluation Did the students correctly identify the most important events in their assigned date range? Give them 1 point for identifying each event and 2 points for summarizing it objectively.
