  • Marshall Goldberg
    Professional Football Researchers Association www.profootballresearchers.com Marshall Goldberg This article was written by Matt Keddie. Marshall Goldberg was always a big dreamer. It was not ironic during his playing days that he earned the nickname, “Biggie”.1 No matter the sport he played or the team he played on, Marshall fit right in with his natural athletic ability. He ascended through the football ranks to star with the NFL's Chicago Cardinals as a fabulous two-way player in the 1940s. His eight year NFL career from 1939 to 1948 was briefly interrupted by a short stint due to service in the US Navy (1944, 1945). During his career, he was arguably the Cardinals' best player, and a top back during the war time era. Marshall was born to Sol Goldberg and Rebecca Fram in Elkins, West Virginia on October 24, 1917. Both immigrants, his parents worked as entrepreneurs in the clothing business.23 They worked hard for what they had, and saved all they could. As a result, Marshall's home life was very blue-collar. He learned the values of working for everything – the food he ate, the clothes on his back, and the success he would achieve in life. Among his interests growing up: competitive sports. He stood roughly 5'11” and 190 pounds, an athletic build that allowed him to star at Elkins High School on the football, track, and basketball teams. Goldberg was not only the team captain, but he was also an All-State performer in his senior year.4 Marshall's astounding success drew the interest of major college football powerhouses from across the country.

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.

Muller, Professor, Department of History ii Copyright © by W. Curtis Miner 2006 iii Level Playing Fields: The Democratization of Amateur Sport in Pennsylvania W. Curtis Miner, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2006 This dissertation examines how amateur sports once dominated and controlled by Pennsylvania’s Leisure Class became accessible to non-elites over the course of the twentieth century. Rising standards of living and increased leisure time were pre-requisites for broader public participation. But this study argues that the democratization of amateur sport depended on the active intervention of the state and, to a lesser extent, the market, both of which broadened access to privately controlled playing fields. In hunting, state game management restored wild game populations, thus ensuring a bountiful supply of game for all Pennsylvanians, irrespective of social class. Likewise, the first municipally owned golf courses, often situated in public parks, offered the only alternative to the private courses which up to that point dominated the game and regulated participation.

    FOOTBALL AWARD WINNERS Consensus All-America Selections 2 Consensus All-Americans by School 20 National Award Winners 32 First Team All-Americans Below FBS 42 NCAA Postgraduate scholarship winners 72 Academic All-America Hall of Fame 81 Academic All-Americans by School 82 CONSENSUS ALL-AMERICA SELECTIONS In 1950, the National Collegiate Athletic Bureau (the NCAA’s service bureau) compiled the first official comprehensive roster of all-time All-Americans. 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. The headings at the top of each column refer to the selector (see legend after chart).
