  • Mini-Bio: Abe Gibron
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 5 (1994) MINI-BIO: ABE GIBRON By Bob Carroll Round Abe Gibron was an outstanding guard with Cleveland's championship teams of the 1950s. At 5'11" and 250 pounds, he was unusually large and fast for a guard at the time, and is often cited as one of the three or four best at his position during the decade. Though gruff on the field, he was a strong family man, taking pride in his wife and three children. Abe was born September 22, 1925, in Michigan City, IN. After beginning at Valparaiso, he lettered two years at Purdue University. He was the first draft choice of the Buffalo Bills of the All-America Football Conference in a secret draft held on July 8, 1948 -- before his final season at Purdue. The AAFC hoped to get the jump on the rival National Football League in signing college seniors. In the 1949 NFL draft, he was selected on the sixth round by the New York Giants, but he signed with Buffalo and became an immediate starter with the Bills. But, when the AAFC merged with the NFL after the 1949 season, the players from defunct AAFC clubs like Buffalo were thrown into a general pool to be drafted by the remaining NFL teams. The Cleveland Browns had joined the NFL as part of the merger, and Cleveland Coach Paul Brown remembered Gibron "had the fastest and quickest charge I ever saw. He was very spirited and played at 250 pounds." He grabbed Gibron. The roly-poly Gibron became one of the Browns' "messenger guards," linemen who alternated in taking each play called by the coach into the quarterback.

  • THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 1 (2002) JIM RAY SMITH
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 1 (2002) JIM RAY SMITH By Andy Piascik Among the traditions of the Cleveland Browns is one of great offensive linemen. This is not surprising for a franchise that has 4 running backs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame; the two go together. Among the great blockers who were integral parts of the Cleveland offense during their championship years of the 1940's, 50's and 60's are Frank Gatski, Lou Groza, Abe Gibron, Mike McCormack, Gene Hickerson, and Dick Schafrath. Each made all-pro and all were regular selections for the Pro Bowl. Gatski, Groza, and McCormack are in the Hall of Fame while Hickerson is considered by many to be the best offensive lineman not in the Hall of Fame. But perhaps the best of all of the Cleveland linemen was guard Jim Ray Smith. A four sports star in high school, Smith was a two-time All-American tackle at Baylor in 1954 and 1955. He was selected as a future in the seventh round by the Browns in the 1954 draft but did not join the team until halfway through the 1956 season because of a hitch in the army. During that season, Smith played as a 220 pound defensive end. The following year, Paul Brown switched him to offense and he became one of the team’s messenger guards. A track star in high school, Smith routinely finished in a dead heat with Ray Renfro behind only Bobby Mitchell and Jim Brown in sprints during Cleveland practices.

  • When the Nfl Had Character
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 1 (1995) WHEN THE NFL HAD CHARACTER By Stanley Grosshandler Two generations of football fans have grown up since the 1953 season, part of the decade called "The Golden Age of the NFL." Younger fans today may find it surprising to learn that the NFL was losing star players back then to the draft (remember the draft?) and to the Canadian Football League. The Korean Conflict had siphoned several top men into the service, including Cleveland tackle Bob Gain, the Cardinals great Ollie Matson, and San Francisco's versatile tackle Bob Toneff. Meanwhile, the Canadian Football League made some inroads by luring a handful north of the border. Among the emmigrants were Cleveland's star end Mac Speedie, the Giants' center-tackle Tex Coulter and defensive end Ray Poole, San Francisco defensive back Jim Cason, and an Eagle receiver named Bud Grant who would return a dozen years later as a coach. Although these and several other well-known players missed the 1953 season, the league still continued to grow in popularity -- due in part to the individual aura that made each team special. Teams then had a their own particular character and each had an identifiable leader. They were not the plastic, look-alike teams who strive today for parity (another name for mediocracy) and play for the field goal. Reviewing those rosters of forty years ago can still produce chills among some "veteran" fans. The Cleveland Browns had the confidence and composure of their coach Paul Brown. They did not have to be told they were winners.

  • The Other Buffalo Bills
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 19, No. 1 (1997) THE OTHER BUFFALO BILLS By Joe Marren Reprinted from The Buffalo Bills Insider America yearned for a return to normalcy at the end of World War II in 1945, but what America got was unlike anything it would have thought normal before the war. Those were giddy times for returning servicemen and civilians alike with money to spend and a hankering to go west. So their games had to keep up with the hurly-burly pace of the day or risk becoming quaint anachronisms like cricket or nine- pins. If a modern Rip Van Winkle drank from a keg while playing some old-fashioned nine-pins in the 1930s and awoke in the America of the late 1940s, he would have been just as bewildered as his great-great- great-great-great grandpa, especially if he was a football fan. Football juked conventional wisdom, shed Eastern tackles and became the first sport with major-league teams on the West Coast. The 1945 National Football League champion Cleveland Rams drove into the Los Angeles market in 1946 and a new league, the All-American Football Conference, put the Los Angeles Dons and San Francisco 49ers on the coast that same season. Our modern Rip would have also witnessed a social revolution. In 1946, the Rams signed two UCLA graduates, halfback Kenny Washington and end Woody Strode, to be the first black players in the NFL since 1933. The AAFC Cleveland Browns also showed that a man's ability was more important than his skin color when it hired fullback Marion Motley and guard Bill Willis in '46.

    APBA 1959 Football Season Card Set The following players comprise the 1959 season APBA Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble.
