  • NFL 1926 in Theory & Practice
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 3 (2002) One division, no playoffs, no championship game. Was there ANY organization to pro football before 1933? Forget the official history for a moment, put on your leather thinking cap, and consider the possibilities of NFL 1926 in Theory and Practice By Mark L. Ford 1926 and 2001 The year 1926 makes an interesting study. For one thing, it was 75 years earlier than the just completed season. More importantly, 1926, like 2001, saw thirty-one pro football teams in competition. The NFL had a record 22 clubs, and Red Grange’s manager had organized the new 9 team American Football League. Besides the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers and New York Giants, and the Cardinals (who would not move from Chicago until 1959), there were other team names that would be familiar today – Buccaneers (Los Angeles), Lions (Brooklyn), Cowboys (Kansas City) and Panthers (Detroit). The AFL created rivals in major cities, with American League Yankees to match the National League Giants, a pre-NBA Chicago Bulls to match the Bears, Philadelphia Quakers against the Philly-suburb Frankford Yellowjackets, a Brooklyn rival formed around the two of the Four Horsemen turned pro, and another “Los Angeles” team. The official summary of 1926 might look chaotic and unorganized – 22 teams grouped in one division in a hodgepodge of large cities and small towns, and is summarized as “Frankford, Chicago Bears, Pottsville, Kansas City, Green Bay, Los Angeles, New York, Duluth, Buffalo, Chicago Cardinals, Providence, Detroit, Hartford, Brooklyn, Milwaukee, Akron, Dayton, Racine, Columbus, Canton, Hammond, Louisville”.

    U B KNIGHTLINES FALL 2010 A PUBLICATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BRIDGEPORT FALL 2010 Out of the Box For more than 40 years, Thomas Mezzanotte has taken breathtaking photographs with cameras dating back to the Civil War and equipment made from cardboard boxes. Just named “Artist of the Year” by the Fairfield Arts Council, UB’s maverick photography alum suddenly finds himself in everybody’s focus. ALSO INSIDE Remembering Manute Bol • Patching Up the Bluefish • UB’s Poet Laureate 1 President’s Line Dear Friends: As I walk through campus on these beautiful fall days, it gives me great pleasure to see so many familiar faces—upper-classmen, professors, and staff—and also the hundreds of new students who these days crowd the PedMall. More than 5,100 students from 80 nations have chosen UB as the place where they will enrich their minds, pursue their dreams, and forge friendships that will last a lifetime. Together, we make UB a truly vibrant and exciting community. The beginning of every academic year brings excitement, but in 2010-2011 we have several new initiatives and programs to celebrate. The Physician Assistant Institute and the Pre-Pharmacy partnership with the University of Connecticut have added energy to the already-lively Health Sciences Division. Even before their courses began, these two new programs had a waiting list of eager applicants. Students at the Shintaro Akatsu School of Design (SASD) will be opening a storefront in downtown Bridgeport, providing local businesses and individuals the opportunity to commission graphic design projects that will benefit the Neil Albert Salonen local business community as well as providing invaluable experience for our students.

  • Historic Atlantic League Baseball Makes Way to Hall of Fame
    Historic Atlantic League Baseball makes way to Hall of Fame Posted by tbnBBM On 02/02/2016 Cooperstown, NY - The distinctive red and blue stitched official baseball used by the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball has been added to the permanent collection at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, N.Y. In addition, the ball is currently on display as part of the “This Year in Baseball” exhibition. “It is an incredible honor to have a piece of league and professional baseball history as part of the Hall of Fame’s collection,” says Atlantic League President Rick White. “We are profoundly appreciative of the Hall’s consideration and encourage all of our fans to pay a visit to Cooperstown.” The baseball represents the first artifact from the Atlantic League to be place in the Hall of Fame. It was debuted on July 8, 2015 at the league’s 18th Annual All-Star Game, held at The Ballpark at Harbor Yard in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Bridgeport Bluefish pitcher D.J. Mitchell, who was representing the Liberty Division, delivered the ball to York Revolution outfielder Brandon Boggs before the ball was removed from play. The Atlantic League adopted the red and blue stitched baseball as a way to honor baseball’s rich heritage as America’s pastime. The baseballs are a tribute to the original baseballs used by the American League until 1934, when Major League Baseball adopted red stitched baseballs in both leagues. Each baseball is created by Rawlings Sporting Goods, the Atlantic League’s official supplier of baseballs since its founding in 1998.
