    The Staten Island Stapletons

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 6 (1985) THE STATEN ISLAND STAPLETONS By John Hogrogian Special thanks to N.F.L. Properties, Inc. for permission to publish this article. Trollies rolled down Broadway and Calvin Coolidge was president when the NFL came to New York City in 1925. In the years since Tim Mara founded the Giants, NFL teams have made their home in each of the City's five boroughs. The Giants played in the Polo Grounds in upper Manhattan through 1955, then moved to Yankee Stadium in the Bronx through 1973. The Brooklyn Dodgers football team thrived in Ebbets Field during the 1930s and 1940s. The Jets made their home in Shea Stadium in Queens from 1964 until recently. And, in the sleepiest of the boroughs, the Staten Island Stapletons played NFL ball from 1929 through 1932. The Stapes struggled through life on a shoestring, but helped keep the NFL afloat as it fought for life in the Depression. The Stapes started out in 1915, five years before the NFL was born in the midwest. Dan Blaine, a good halfback and a native of the working-class neighborhood known as Stapleton, along with three other players formed the team to play other semi-pro squads from New York and New Jersey. The Stapes played more for fun than money. Just as well: crowds were small; salaries averaged $10 per game. Nevertheless, they managed to do well, winning several local semi-pro titles before World War I. After military service, Blaine took over sole ownership in 1919. Blaine himself prospered in the 1920s.

  • Cup of Coffee Players: JACK SHAPIRO

    Cup of Coffee Players: JACK SHAPIRO

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 21, No. 4 (1999) “Cup of Coffee” Players: JACK SHAPIRO By Mel Bashore Jack Shapiro has the distinction of being the all-time Tom Thumb of pro football -- the smallest player to ever play in the NFL. In a game dominated by big men, Shapiro weighed in between 119 and 126 pounds. His Army discharge papers listed him as 5 feet ½ inches tall, but Shapiro always liked to say that he was 5 foot 1. In his words, this gave him “a better chance with the beautiful girls and it just sounded better." His stint in the NFL was as brief as his diminutive size. Although football historians list him as playing in just one regular-season game with the 1929 Staten Island Stapletons, he remembers differently. He is still very sharp and quick-witted at age 92 and in his mem-ory, he was on the Stape's roster for five games, playing in two regular-season games and one exhibition game. The regular-season games were late in the season against the Minneapolis Redjackets and Orange Tornadoes. After the Stape's quarterback was hurt in the first two minutes of the exhibition game, Shapiro played for 58 minutes, scoring a TD on a 35-yard run. The injured quarterback was replaced by Hinky Haines, relegating Shapiro to the substitute role. Born in New York in 1907, Jack was the only one of his family born in America. His parents immigrated to America with four boys and four girls -- one of the girls being a cousin who lived with them.
