  • Are You Ready for Some Super-Senior Football?
    Oldest living players Are you ready for some super-senior football? Starting East team quarterback Ace Parker (Information was current as of May 2013 when article appeared in Sports Collectors Digest magazine) By George Vrechek Can you imagine a tackle football game featuring the oldest living NFL players with some of the guys in their 90s? Well to tell the truth, I can’t really imagine it either. However that doesn’t stop me from fantasizing about the possibility of a super-senior all-star game featuring players who appeared on football cards. After SCD featured my articles earlier this year about the (remote) possibility of a game involving the oldest living baseball players, you knew it wouldn’t be long before you read about the possibility of a super-senior football game. Old-timers have been coming back to baseball parks for years to make cameo appearances. Walter Johnson pitched against Babe Ruth long after both had retired. My earlier articles proposed the possibility of getting the oldest baseball players (ranging in age from 88 to 101) back for one more game. While not very likely, it is at least conceivable. Getting the oldest old-timers back for a game of tackle football, on the other hand, isn’t very likely. We can probably think about a touch game, but the players would properly insist that touch is not the same game. If the game were played as touch football, the plethora of linemen would have to entertain one another, while the players in the skill positions got to run around and get all the attention, sort of like it is now in the NFL, except the linemen are knocking themselves silly.

  • The Oldest Living Heisman Winners and Their Cards
    The Oldest Living Heisman Winners and their Cards By George Vrechek There are approximately 1.1 million students playing high school football in the U.S. It is estimated that 67,000 play football at all college levels. There are 120 Football Bowl Subdivision schools offering 85 scholarships each to 10,200 players. Each year one college player receives the Heisman Trophy. Of the Heisman Trophy winners prior to 1955, two of them are still alive. I was fortunate to talk to both of them about their careers, cards, and memorabilia. Johnny Lujack, Heisman ‘47 Johnny Lujack was on the cover of national magazines, signed a lucrative pro contract, and was featured on numerous cards despite playing before the boom days of card collecting and only playing professionally for four years. Lujack (89) played for Notre Dame in 1943, served in the Navy in 1944 and 1945 (V-12 Program), and returned to Notre Dame for 1946 and 1947. He was drafted #4 overall in the 1946 NFL draft and played for the Chicago Bears from 1948 to 1951. He was athletic, smart, and handsome. At Connellsville High School, south of Pittsburgh, Lujack lettered in three sports, was elected class president, and graduated as the valedictorian. Lujack’s Notre Dame teams coached by Frank Leahy went 26-1-1 and won three national AP titles the three years he played varsity football. In 1947 Notre Dame was 9-0, and Lujack passed for 777 yards and ran for 139 yards. (In 2012 Heisman Winner Johnny Manziel passed for 3,706 yards and ran for 1,410 yards.) In the Heisman voting Lujack had 742 votes, Bob Chappius 555, Doak Walker 196, and Charley Conerly 186.

  • The Nfl Indoor Championship
    115 YEARS AGO: “PUDGE” HEFFELFINGER BECOMES FIRST FOOTBALL PRO When one thinks of legendary professional football players, names like JOE NAMATH, JIM BROWN, DICK BUTKUS, JOE MONTANA or JOE GREENE probably spring to mind. Few, however, would name WILLIAM “PUDGE” HEFFELFINGER among those legends. Yet Heffelfinger was the player who preceded all of these superstars. On November 12, 1892 – 115 years go – at Recreation Park on Pittsburgh’s North Side, “Pudge” Heffelfinger became the first- ever professional football player. The Allegheny Athletic Association and the Pittsburgh Athletic Club were fierce intra-city rivals. The two teams had played to a previous 6-6 tie in front of 3,000 fans on Columbus Day in 1892. Heffelfinger had been an All-American at Yale from 1889-91 and was the most revered football player in the nation at the time. For that reason, the Allegheny Athletic Association decided to pay Heffelfinger $25 in expenses and a cash bonus of $500 to play for its squad in the rematch against the PAC. Before a crowd of 5,000, Heffelfinger led the AAA team to a 4-0 victory over the PAC team. In the first half, the ex-Yale hero, playing guard, forced a fumble, recovered it and returned it for the game’s only touchdown. On that day, “Pudge” Heffelfinger and the Allegheny Athletic Association began 115 years of professional football. A breakdown of “Pudge” Heffelfinger: Position Height Weight High School College Guard 6-3 195 Central HS (Minneapolis, MN) Yale University • Was a member of the first three All-America teams (1889-91).

  • Fighting Illini Football History
    HISTORY FIGHTING ILLINI HISTORY ILLINOIS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TEAMS 1914 Possibly the most dominant team in Illinois football history was the 1914 squad. The squad was only coach Robert Zuppke’s second at Illinois and would be the first of four national championship teams he would lead in his 29 years at Illinois. The Fighting Illini defense shut out four of its seven opponents, yielding only 22 points the entire 1914 season, and the averaged up an incredible 32 points per game, in cluding a 51-0 shellacking of Indiana on Oct. 10. This team was so good that no one scored a point against them until Oct. 31, the fifth game of the seven-game season. The closest game of the year, two weeks later, wasn’t very close at all, a 21-7 home decision over Chicago. Leading the way for Zuppke’s troops was right halfback Bart Macomber. He led the team in scoring. Left guard Ralph Chapman was named to Walter Camp’s first-team All-America squad, while left halfback Harold Pogue, the team’s second-leading scorer, was named to Camp’s second team. 1919 The 1919 team was the only one of Zuppke’s national cham pi on ship squads to lose a game. Wisconsin managed to de feat the Fighting Illini in Urbana in the third game of the season, 14-10, to tem porarily knock Illinois out of the conference lead. However, Zuppke’s men came back from the Wisconsin defeat with three consecutive wins to set up a showdown with the Buckeyes at Ohio Stadium on Nov.
