  • SNOW BIRDS the 1948 Philadelphia Eagles
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 3, No. 12 (1981) SNOW BIRDS The 1948 Philadelphia Eagles By Bob Carroll & The Pro Football Hall of Fame This is an upbeat story. You don't see many of them anymore, what with violence down in the street, nuclear holocaust around the corner, and much of the world 'round the bend. But this story happened in a less cynical age, and so we don't have to feel uneasy if there's a happy ending. It's a story about a football team that kept losing until they hired a coach who had learned to win, about the team's greatest player, best season, and most crucial game. More than that, it's about "professionals," in the sense of men who knew what they were expected to do and went out and did it. It's about winners. But, for a long time, they were anything but. The Philadelphia Eagles were born in 1933 during the Depression -- their symbol was the Blue Eagle of Roosevelt's National Recover Act -- and, for the remainder of the Thirties, they were a depressed area in the National Football League. Future NFL commissioner Bert Bell, along with several partners, purchased the franchise for $2,500 and an agreement to pay off a portion of the debts left behind in 1931 by the Frankford Yellow Jackets, Philadelphia's early NFL team. In the Eagles' first game, the New York Giants humiliated them, 56-0. Although they improved from there, the Birds set up permanent residence at the bottom of the NFL pack.
