  • Los Gigantes De Nueva York De Bill Terry Tuvieron Otra Buena
    1934 Los Gigantes de Nueva York de Bill Terry tuvieron otra buena temporada en 1934 anotando 760 carreras y permitiendo 583, el menor de la liga, pero no fue suficiente para obtener el banderín de la Liga Nacional. El joven Mel Ott bateó para 0.326 con 119 carreras anotadas solo superado por Paul Waner (con 122), recibiendo 85 bases por bolas y empató con Ripper Collins en cuadrangulares con 35. El manager-jugador Bill Terry fue segundo en bateo con 0.354 detrás de Waner (0.362) anotando 109 carreras. Jo Jo Moore bateó para 0.331 y cruzó el plato en 106 ocasiones. Hal Schumacher ganó 23 juegos (23-10,3.18 CLP) y Carl Hubbell tuvo marca de 21-12 con el título de carreras limpias permitidas de 2.30. Pero fueron los Cardenales de San Luis quienes se llevaron el título de la Liga Nacional. La competencia estuvo bastante interesante pues los Gigantes quedaron a dos juegos del primer sitio. Nueva York había sido el líder durante más de cuatro meses hasta que al final las cosas se le complicaron. Sucedió el 28 de septiembre que Dizzy Dean (30-7, 2.66 CLP) de los Cardenales blanqueó a los Rojos de Cincinnati para empatar con Gigantes en el primer lugar. Al siguiente día Paul Dean (19-11, 3.43 CLP), el hermano menor de Dizzy, vence 6-1 de nueva cuenta a los Rojos mientras que los Gigantes perdían con los Dodgers de Brooklyn. Un día después el mismo Dizzy blanquea otra vez a los Rojos 9-0 dando una ventaja a su equipo que jamás perdería.

  • Curly Lambeau
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 6, No. 1 (1984) Curly Lambeau Just when most of the small town teams were disappearing, Lambeau had his Packers at the top of the NFL standings. He built a juggernaut that won league championships in 1929, ‘30, and ‘31. No team has ever topped that 3-straight record. Always, Lambeau’s teams emphasized the forward pass, using it as a main part of the offense when other teams treated it as a desperation tactic. In 1935, Don Hutson joined the pack, and – coupled with passers Arnie Herber and Cecil Isbell – he became the most devastating receiver the NFL had ever seen. Featuring Hutson, Lambeau’s Packers continued as a power into the 1940s, winning championships in 1936, ‘39, and ‘44. With six champions and 33 consecutive years as an NFL head coach, Lambeau was a shoo-in as a charter member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963. Today, the Green Bay Packers are the only remaining reminder that the National Football League was once studded with “small town” teams. Rock Island, Dayton, Canton and dozens of others competed against Chicago and New York. That little Green Bay survived where so many others failed was, more than anything else, due to the efforts of Earl “Curly” Lambeau. In 1919, when he should have been back at Notre Dame as George Gipp’s sophomore sub, Lambeau organized his frst Green Bay team and talked a local meat packer into sponsoring it. Two years later, Lambeau brought the Packers into the young NFL. Almost immediately, disaster struck! After only one season in the NFL, the Packers were found to have violated some league rules and the franchise was lifted.

  • Passer Ratings
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 8, No. 9 (1986) BUCKING THE SYSTEM OR, WHY THE NFL CAN'T FIND HAPPINESS WITH ITS PASSER RATINGS By Bob Carroll If you believe in your heart of hearts that Warren Moon is a better passer than Otto Graham, you're at one with the National Football League. Never mind that Graham is a card-carrying member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and a quarterback who led the Cleveland Browns to seven league championships in ten seasons, while Moon is the oft-booed signal-caller for one of the NFL's least successful franchises. According to the National Football League's Passer Rating System, Moon tossed for a 68.5 mark last season; Graham, in 1950 – a year his Cleveland Browns won the NFL Championship, could manage only a paltry 64.7. That makes it official; Warren is 3.8 better than "Automatic Otto." Has George Orwell become an NFL flack? Is this reality or newspeak? More! In the gospel according to the NFL, Dan Marino is the best passer ever. Until this year, Joe Montana was. A couple of other top ten performers: Danny White, the guy who made Dallas forget Roger Staubach, and Neil Lomax, whose success in St. Louis has made him a legend. And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime. Well, it all depends, you say. Actually, it DOESN'T rain (or snow) inside the Hoosier Dome during any part of the calendar year, and Marino, Montana, White, and Lomax ARE good – maybe great – passers. But, are they THAT good? The much-maligned NFL Way of Rating Passers places some present throwers at the top of the Hurler Heap and consigns such clutzes as Sid Luckman, Johnny Unitas, Y.A.

  • 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.
