Before you say all that is available other places, let me tell you the part of this site that interests me and then ask you for a big favor. The first part of the site is devoted to pre-NFL years – 1910-19. This includes major teams like the 1917 Canton Bulldogs and 1914 Evanston North Ends as well as semi-semi pros like the 1912 Beloit Iroquois A.C. and the 1916 Hartford City A.A. Many of the major teams are nearly complete, but the little teams that you never heard of have lots of blanks. Now here’s the big favor. Look at the yearly team lists for 1910-19 and see if there were teams listed from your town. If you find one or more, see * * * * what’s missing. (In many cases it’s all but one or two games of a team’s schedule.) Now go to your local library (or wherever microfilm of your local newspaper is kept) and start checking game accounts.

  • Elmer Angsman
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 23, No. 4 (2001) Elmer Angsman: A Hero of the Last Chicago Cardinal Football Champions By: Jim Sargent Elmer Angsman, who played his final season of professional almost fifty years ago, remains a hero of the last Chicago Cardinal championship football team. The former Notre Dame star halfback helped lead the Cardinals to the franchise’s last National Football League championship two years after World War II ended. On Sunday, December 28, 1947, when the cold afternoon ended at Chicago’s Comiskey Park, the Cardinals had used four big plays to defeat the NFL’s Eastern Division champion Philadelphia Eagles, 28- 21. On a day when the Cards opened the game wearing basketball shoes, Angsman scored two of Chicago’s four touchdowns on 70-yard bursts through the line of scrimmage. Rushing for 159 yards on a subfreezing day, Angsman broke the previous NFL playoff record of 109 yards in one game set by Bill Osmanski of the Chicago Bears against the Washington Redskins in 1940. Philadelphia’s Tommy Thompson, a NFL veteran since 1940, set playoff records for the most passes attempted and completed. The Eagle quarterback, who threw for 16 touchdowns in 1947, passed for 297 yards and one touchdown, going 27-for-44. But in the end, Angsman’s two touchdowns and two long scoring runs by Cardinal rookie Charley Trippi gave the NFL title to the Cardinals. While the club produced an even better regular season in 1948, going 11-1, Chicago lost the ‘48 league championship to Philadelphia, 7-0, under almost unbelievable snowy conditions.

  • No Game for Boys to Play Debating the Safety of Youth Football, 1945-2015
    No Game for Boys to Play Debating the Safety of Youth Football, 1945-2015 Kathleen Elizabeth Bachynski Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Kathleen Elizabeth Bachynski All rights reserved ABSTRACT No Game for Boys to Play: Debating the Safety of Youth Football, 1945-2015 Kathleen Elizabeth Bachynski Tackle football has been one of the most popular sports for boys in the United States since the mid-twentieth century. This dissertation examines how debates over the safety of football for children at the high school level and younger have changed from 1945 through the present. After World War II, the expansion of youth tackle football leagues, particularly for pre- pubescent children, fostered a new range of medical and educational concerns. Yet calls for limits on tackle football were largely obscured by the political and social culture of the Cold War, including beliefs about violence, masculinity, and competition. A broad range of groups and individuals were involved in debating the safety of youth football throughout the remainder of the twentieth and early twenty-first century. These groups included doctors, coaches, educators, lawyers, engineers, parents, athletes, journalists, and sporting goods manufacturers. Their arguments over the risks and benefits of youth football involved not only the sport’s effects on physical health, but also on social and emotional well- being. By the 1970s, researchers were applying injury epidemiology methods to studying key mechanisms involved in football injuries, while a broader consumer product safety movement contributed to the development of the first football helmet standards.
