  • Shakespeare in Cleats… the Story of Bill Fisher
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 27, No. 2 (2005) SHAKESPEARE IN CLEATS: THE STORY OF BILL FISHER From Minor League Vagabond to Shakespeare aficionado By Ace Hendricks Many minor league players spend their time as vagabonds, moving from team to team, league to league hoping to get that chance at the stardom and paycheck that had eluded them while playing at a lower level. You've heard stories of players like Johnny Unitas and Kurt Warner, who toil in the minor league before striking it rich. But what about those you don't hear about? The players who spend their whole careers without ever making the big time, are just in the wrong situation, missed an opportunity due to signing with this team and not that team? Spend their young adult lives just one play short of making an NFL squad? And what about those that also enjoy Romeo and Juliet? Love reading poetry? Enjoy a good Shakespeare play instead of watching the "big game" on Sunday? Bill Fisher was one such player. He played from 1969 to 1979 in the minors, playing in top minor league systems, such as the Continental Football League and the Atlantic Coast Football League. Later in his career, he played in leagues such as the Midwest Football League, High Desert Football League and the California Football League, where he finished his career. He also attended three different "major league" camps, all with different teams and different results. As a rookie in 1969, he was with the Denver Broncos, 1971 with the Houston Oilers and with British Columbia of the Canadian Football League in 1972.

  • Manch Wheeler
    Professional Football Researchers Association www.profootballresearchers.com Manch Wheeler This article was written by Greg D. Tranter Manchester “Manch” Wheeler was a standout collegiate football player at the University of Maine in the early 1960’s, propelling him to an opportunity to play professionally for the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo became interested in Wheeler while watching film of another prospect but were intrigued by Wheeler’s tenacity and throwing arm. The Bills signed the undrafted free agent for $8,500 in 1962. The Bills 1962 game program described Wheeler as “an exceptionally fine passing and overall quarterbacking prospect.” During the Bills training camp, the 6-foot, 200-pound Wheeler, battled six other quarterbacks including veterans Johnny Green, Al Dorow and Warren Rabb. Wheeler received his first game action in a “Meet the Bills Night” scrimmage between the Bills veteran players and the rookies. He completed 5 of 14 passes for 50 yards, though his team threatened to score they were defeated by the veterans 14-0. One of the two veteran’s TD’s was a pick six against Wheeler by Carl Taseff and a 27-yard return for the touchdown. Wheeler made his Buffalo preseason debut on the last drive of the Bills first exhibition game versus the New York Titans at Bowen Field in New Haven, Connecticut on August 12. Wheeler ran the ball on his third play from scrimmage, bulling his way for five yards and a Bills first down. One play later he threw his first professional pass, firing the ball over 50 yards in the air, just barely bouncing off the fingertips of halfback Jim Hold at 1 Professional Football Researchers Association www.profootballresearchers.com the goal line.

  • The Continental Football League
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 10, No. 5 (1988) THE CONTINENTAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE A Mini-tragedy in Five Acts By Sarge Kennedy with special thanks to Steven Brainerd, Gino Malattia, Lee Grosscup and, especially, Ron Real, for his outstanding report of the 1969 ContFL Championship Game in Pro Football Weekly. The announcement of the formation of the Continental Football League on February 6, 1965, marked the beginning of a most ambitious but ill-fated venture. Not since that September day in 1920, when George Halas and the representatives of other "local clubs" laid the foundations of the National Football League had such a venture been tried in the "minor" league realm of professional football. There had, of course, been other "major leagues" established – four versions of an American Football League (1925, 1936, 1940, and 1960) and the All-American Football Conference (1946). But those, generally, were the playthings of wealthy businessmen. This was a different scene. This was the scrappy kid from the other side of the tracks standing up and saying "Hey, look at me. I can play football, too!" This was a mid-60's version of an Andy Hardy movie. This was a real live version of the "American Dream"--except that it turned quickly into one long-running nightmare. Here follows a brief year by year review of the Continental Football League's unfortunate saga. 1965: OUT OF THE RUINS, A NEW BEGINNING The ContFL was primarily formed from teams in the United and Atlantic Coast Football Leagues. The Newark Bears, Springfield Acorns, Richmond Rebels, and Hartford Charter Oaks, came from the ACFL.
