  • THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 4, No. 9 (1982) the BRONX
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 4, No. 9 (1982) THE BRONX by Victor Mastro Lombardi's Packers, Pittsburgh's Super Steelers, Chicago's Monsters of the Midway, Cleveland's Big bad Browns, the glittering Dallas Cowboys and the ancient Canton Bulldogs, all claimed winners' thrones in the NFL. Soldiers Field, Wrigley Field, League Park, and Municipal Stadium burned with the fever of football, while gridiron ghosts of yesteryear ran, passed, blocked and tackled. Out of all this gladiatorial grandeur, one borough in a great city stands atop these mountains of football folklore -- the Bronx. Just across the East River from the Bronx, the Polo Grounds was the scene of many great football games during the 1920s-30s. Meanwhile, the Bronx was still a rookie in football experience. But Red Grange, the fabled Four Horsemen of Notre Dame, and Fordham's Seven Blocks of Granite left their imprints on football, playing games at Yankee Stadium. Furthermore, some of the early greats of the NFL came from or played high school or college ball in the Bronx. These included Sid Luckman, Ken Strong and Ed Danowski. Steve Owen, the legendary Giant coach, worked as a foreman in the Bronx coal yard. In 1934, the "Sneaker Game," perhaps the greatest comeback in championship play, resulted from shoes borrowed from Manhattan College in the Bronx. After that classic, no NFL team dared take the field in cold weather without having "sneaker" type footgear available. In the mid-1930s, Fordham in the heart of the Bronx boasted what might have been the greatest offensive and defensive line in college history -- the "Seven Blocks of Granite." Tackle Ed Franco was a consensus All-American.
