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. -

Football Hall Selects Another Marine
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 22, No. 5 (2000) Football Hall selects another Marine By John Gunn Camp Lejeune Globe/ 5-5 On the football field, he was a hawk, not a dove. As a result, former Marine Bob Dove of Notre Dame and NFL fame was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame. He is at least the 45th former Marine so honored. The hall's Honor Committee, which reviews accomplishments of players of more than 50 years ago, selected Dove, a three-year starter at end for the Fighting Irish from 1940-42, a two-time All-American and winner of the Knute Rockne Trophy in 1942. "It had been over 50 years. I almost forgot about it," Dove said. (Similar efforts have been unsuccessful to honor back George Franck, a Minnesota All-American who was third in the 1940 Heisman Trophy voting and a Marine aviator in the South Pacific during WW II.) THIRTEEN OTHER PLAYERS and two coaches whose selections were announced April 25 at a South Bend, Ind., news conference will be inducted into the hall at a Dec. 12 banquet in New York and formally enshrined at South Bend in August 2001. Dove, who played nine seasons with the Chicago Rockets, Chicago Cardinals and Detroit Lions, also starred for the El Toro Flying Marines in 1944 and '45 -- the "Boys of Autumn" and strongest Leatherneck teams ever fielded. The '44 team won eight, lost one and was ranked 16th in The Associated Press poll even though the base was barely a year and a half old. -
Goln' to the DOGS
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 20, No. 6 (1998) GOlN’ TO THE DOGS By Paul M. Bennett They're off and running excitedly and enthusiastically chasing that elusive rabbit. The long since departed and all but forgotten, All-America Football Conference was a professional football league that had "gone to the dogs." Literally! Some football fans, such as those dour National Football League diehards (you know who you are), would say that "going to the dogs" definitely had described the AAFC's level of play during the league's all too brief, four-year tenure as a fiery competitor to the established pro league. Their argument was further reinforced after the league finally called it quits following the end of the 1949 season, when three of its teams (Cleveland Browns, San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Colts) were absorbed, or merged (if one is kind), into the NFL commencing with the 1950 season. AAFC fans would simply say "pooh" to those NFL naysayers. What did they know? Haughtiness and arrogance seemed to have been their credo. Conservative to a fault. A new idea must be a bad idea! The eight-team AAFC had played football at a level that was both entertaining to the viewing public and similar in quality to that of the older, ten-team league. The only problem the AAFC seemed to have had was its overall lack of depth, talent-wise, and, more importantly, its lack of adequate team competition. The AAFC's chief asset had been the powerful and innovative Cleveland Browns, arguably one of professional football's most dominant franchises. -

The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope. The following chart indicates, by year (in left column), which national media and organizations selected All-America teams.
