  • The Chicago Fire of the World Football League
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 14, No. 6 (1992) From Blaze to Ashes: A Brief History of the Chicago Fire of the World Football League by David Yamada The World Football League is generally regarded as one of pro football’s tragicomedies, featuring undertalented, under financed teams playing before paltry (or papered) crowds. The Chicago Fire, which played during the WFL’s maiden 1974 season, is probably best remembered for its catchy team nickname. However, for a few brief shining months, the Fire managed to capture the fancy of many Windy City football fans who were starved for a team that promised to play exciting, winning football. To understand the enthusiastic embrace which welcomed the Fire and the WFL in Chicago, one must grasp the state of the Chicago Bears during the early 1970s. The Bears of that time were hardly the marquee team they are today. Walter Payton did not arrive until 1975; he was quietly piling up yardage for Jackson State during the Fire’s first and only season. Gale Sayers had retired in 1972, and Dick Butkus had lasted only through 1973 before his battered knees also forced him to the sidelines. Bobby Douglass was the primary Bear Quarterback; in 1972, he managed to run for 968 yards while completing a comical 37.9 percent of his passes. In 1973, the Bears won only 3 of 14 games. As the Bears approached their 1974 summer training camp, a players’ strike was looming and would soon become a reality. Clearly then, there was a window of opportunity for a new professional football team in Chicago, and for a short while, the Chicago Fire took full advantage of that opportunity.
