THE DAY OF THE ICE BOWL GAME WAS SO COLD, the referees’ whistles wouldn’t work; so cold, the reporters’ coffee froze in the press booth; so cold, fans built small fires in the concrete and metal stands; so cold, TV cables froze and photographers didn’t dare touch the metal of their equipment; so cold, the game was as much about survival as it was Most Unforgettable Game About Football’s The Cold Truth about skill and strategy.

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. -
Emlen Tunnell: a Giant of Defense
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 5 (1994) EMLEN TUNNELL: A GIANT OF DEFENSE By Bob Carroll In 1942, doctors told Emlen Tunnell he would never play football again; twenty-five years later, he became the first Afro-American to be named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Tunnell was born March 25, 1925, in Bryn Mahr, PA. After his graduation from Radnor (PA) High School, he entered the University of Toledo in 1942 but soon suffered the broken neck that seemed to end his football career. Although he was able to play basketball and help Toledo reach the finals of the National Invitational Tournament, he wore a neck brace for a year and was turned down in his attempts to enlist in the army and navy. Undaunted, he joined the U.S. Coast Guard where he served until early 1946. Upon his return to civilian life, Tunnell enrolled at the University of Iowa and went out for football along with 300 other candidates. He began as the 21st halfback but soon became one of the Hawkeyes' most important players, excelling on defense. In 1947, he asked Coach Eddie Anderson for more time on offense, but surprisingly, he was demoted to the third team. The coach felt his skills would best be used in spot situations. Tunnell fumed, and considered not returning for his senior year. Then an eye operation forced him to drop out of school. In the summer of 1948, Tunnell hitch-hiked 150 miles to the offices of the New York Giants and asked for a tryout. -

Famous NFL Couples Throughout History
A DESTINY’S CHILD TO MARRY A DALLAS COWBOY There was one big offseason engagement … A big offseason wedding … And a “Save-The-Day” move by an NFL quarterback for his famous wife. NFL players and their well-known wives (or wives-to-be) certainly had a busy offseason this spring and summer. In May, Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl safety ROY WILLIAMS proposed to Grammy Award-winning singer KELLY ROWLAND of the singing group Destiny’s Child. Williams proposed to Rowland in New York in a room filled with friends, including Rowland’s fellow Destiny’s Child singer Beyonce. The wedding date has not been set. In June, Williams’ new teammate, running back EDDIE GEORGE, married yet another singer, TAMARA JOHNSON of the R&B group Sisters With Voices. How did Eddie propose to Tamara? The couple was standing on New York’s Brooklyn Bridge and George had a five-carat ring delivered by an English bulldog. That’s original! Like with all married couples, one had to lean on the other this June. ELISABETH HASSELBECK, the former Survivor star and current co-host of The View on ABC, was unable to fashion a ponytail for herself because of thumb surgery. That left hubby TIM, quarterback of the Washington Redskins, in the position of learning how to make a ponytail so his wife would look presentable on television. “He was really incredible,” says Elisabeth. “He’s got many skills that I’m just learning about now. He stepped right up without hesitation and understood the pressure that was involved.” The Hasselbecks and the Georges join a long list of famous NFL couples throughout history. -
