  • How to Get from Dayton to Indianapolis by Way of Brooklyn, Boston, New York, Dallas, Hershey and Baltimore
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 17, No. 5 (1995) HOW TO GET FROM DAYTON TO INDIANAPOLIS BY WAY OF BROOKLYN, BOSTON, NEW YORK, DALLAS, HERSHEY AND BALTIMORE By Bob Carroll Originally published in Ragtyme Sports Once upon a time -- well, in March of 1995, to be exact -- Ragtyme Sports published Rick Hines' story on Y.A. Tittle, one of my all-time favorite bald quarterbacks. Maybe I enjoyed reminiscing about Y.A. too much because I read right past an error in the article without noticing it, an error that has since given rise to a series of letter-to-the-editor corrections that may have simply confused the issue further. To remind everybody, what Rick wrote was "... the [Baltimore] Colts were one of four AAFC teams taken in by the NFL. The other teams from the defunct AAFC to merge with the NFL were the [Cleveland] Browns, New York Yankees and San Francisco 49ers." The question seems simple enough: which teams and how many of them from the old All-America Football Conference (1946-1949) were taken into the the National Football League in 1950? What Rick wrote was wrong. But also it was sort of right, as I will explain later. Eric Minde, a reader who knows his AAFC potatoes (as my sainted grandpa used to say}, jumped all over Rick. In Issue 4, Eric said: "... the article about Y.A. Tittle identifies the New York Yankees as an AAFC team that transferred to the NFL -- this is also wrong! The New York Yankees folded with the AAFC -- it was the Boston Yanks already in the NFL before the AAFC came into existence that became the New York Bulldogs, then later renamed the New York Yanks." This is right as far as it goes.

  • A Boy of Summer
    A Boy of Summer Andrew Paul Mele “Every man carries within himself a world made up of all that he has seen and loved, and it is to this world that he returns incessantly.” —Francois-Rene de Chateaubriand, French Author and Diplomat, 1768 - 1848 “Those fans in Brooklyn were something. They were just about on the roster!” —Kirby Higbe, Pitcher, Brooklyn Dodgers, 1941-1947 The summer passed swiftly. After the initial shock of his father’s heart at- tack in the spring, the boy and his family settled into an uneasy routine of medication and walks and having his father around the house all the time. Robert sometimes felt guilty about his own feelings. His father’s convalescence enabled them to spend more time together than had been possible before, and for that the boy was grateful. It was baseball and the Brooklyn Dodgers that established the link between father and son, and through that summer of 1955, both were able to revel in the successes of the ball club. They had gotten off to a rip-roaring start by win- ning the first ten games they played, then after losing two out of three to the Giants, they won another eleven to go 22 and 2 to open the season. Robert and his dad had gone to Ebbets Field for the second game of that Giant series. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and they weren’t disap- 92 Aethlon XXIII:2 / Spring 2006 pointed, neither in the excitement that invariably comes with a battle between those two rivals, nor the outcome; the Dodgers winning the game 3-1.
