  • (2005) Wallace “Wally” Triplett
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 27, No. 4 (2005) Wallace “Wally” Triplett: Struggling for Success in the Postwar NFL By Jim Sargent In the nineteenth round of the National Football League’s annual draft in 1949, the Detroit Lions selected Wallace (Wally) Triplett, a “triple threat” all-around halfback at Penn State University. But Lions coach and general manager Alvin “Bo” McMillin could not be sure his number 19 choice would accept, since no African American player had yet signed as an NFL draft choice. Triplett changed that perception. Not only did the Pennsylvania native have the personality, character, and mindset to defy the odds in pro football, then considered a white man’s game, he also possessed the skills, speed, and toughness necessary to carry the ball and block on offense, defend against the run and the pass, and return kickoffs and punts. Although he played only four seasons in the NFL, Triplett earned a place in the league’s history. First, when the Lions selected him, Wally became the first African-American to accept the NFL’s draft. Several other black players preceded him in pro football, including end Bob Mann and halfback Mel Groomes, both of whom played for Detroit in 1948. Second, the speedy Triplett, a great scatback, excelled at football. Given an opening, he could sprint down the field. His finest hour came on October 29, 1950, when he set an NFL record (which lasted 44 years) by returning four kickoffs for 294 yards and one touchdown as the Rams ripped the Lions, 65-24, at the Los Angeles Coliseum.

  • History and Temporal Tourism
    "SO YOU WANT TO BE A RETRONAUT?”: HISTORY AND TEMPORAL TOURISM Tiffany L. Knoell A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2020 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Kenneth Borland Graduate Faculty Representative Esther Clinton Thomas Edge © 2020 Tiffany L. Knoell All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor In “So You Want to Be A Retronaut?”: History and Temporal Tourism, I examine how contemporary individuals explore and engage with the past beyond the classroom through nostalgic consumerism, watching historical reality television, visiting historical sites or living history museums, handling historical objects, and, in many cases, participating in living history or historical re-enactment. The phrase “make America great again” taps directly into a belief that our nation has been diverted from a singular history that was better, purer, or even happier. What it ignores, though, is that the past is fraught for millions of Americans because their history – based on generations of inequality – is not to be celebrated, but rather commemorated for those who died, those who survived, and those who made their place in a nation that often didn’t want them. To connect to that complicated history, many of us seek to make that history personal and to see a reflection of who we are in the present in the mirror of past. For this project I conducted 54 interviews of subjects gathered from a variety of historically significant commemorations and locations such as the 2013 and 2015 memorial observances at Gettysburg, PA, and sites at Mount Vernon, Historic Jamestowne, and Colonial Williamsburg, VA.

  • Ralf Adelmann the Visual Potential of History. Images of the Past in Film, Television and Computer Games
    Journal of Social Science Education © JSSE 2008/2009 Volume 7/8, Number 2/1, 2008/09, pp. 46-55 ISSN 1618-5293 Ralf Adelmann The Visual Potential of History. Images of the Past in Film, Television and Computer Games Abstract In a famous quote Marx said: “Hegel remarks somewhere that all great world-historic facts and personages appear, so to speak, twice. He forgot to add: the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.” Today one would like to add, that film, television and computer games alter the historic event through modern visualizations of the past. Not only the historic facts and personages appear more than once, but also the representation of history multiplies itself in visual reconstructions, re-enactments and simulations in the media. What happens to history and its epistemology when it becomes an audiovisual experience? What are the different visual modes of knowledge production in historiography? Which uses of history become part of popular media culture? These questions are the starting point for an analysis of current examples of 'histotainment' and theoretical considerations about popular historiography. Contents 1. Document 2. Drama 3. Animation/Simulation References Keywords Visualisation, histotainment, visual historic reconstruction, re-enactment, simulation, media, history, modes of knowledge production, popular media culture, popular historiography Tony Soprano, the leading character in the television series “The Sopranos”, finds distraction in front of the television from his strenuous work as a mafia boss. One of his favourite programs is the History Channel. In the televisual representation of the past he occasionally finds inspirations for his little everyday problems.

  • Jack Christiansen: Crew Chief
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 6, Nos. 5 & 6 (1984) Jack Christiansen: Crew Chief By Don Smith He always thought his best sport was basketball and yet he couldn’t make his college cage team. When he first starred as a varsity athlete at Colorado A&M College, it was as a dash man on the track team. A chance shooting accident when he was a high school senior so severly injured his left arm that he felt the end had come to what he had considered to be a, so-so gridiron career. Not a bit of this is the kind of thing you would expect to hear about an all-time pro football great tapped for membership in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But they are true chapters, nevertheless, in the life of Jack Christiansen, one of history’s finest defensive halfbacks. The Christiansen story is a perfect example of the adage that the path to greatness is not always a direct path. Raised in an Odd Fellows Orphanage in Canon City, Colo., Christiansen felt he was too small for college football, even if the shooting accident had not occurred. So he contented himself for more than a year with being a sprint man – and a very good one – on the college track squad. When he finally tried out for football against the advice of his doctors, he felt that he was a mighty lucky fellow to have made the 44th spot on a 44-man travelling squad when his A&M team journeyed to Denver for a traditional battle.

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn PITTSBURGH STEELERS Team History The Pittsburgh Steelers were founded by Arthur J. Rooney on July 8, 1933. Now the seventh-oldest franchise in the NFL, the Pittsburgh team was known as the Pirates until 1940. The Steelers struggled for their first 40 years without winning a championship of any kind until they won the AFC Central division title in 1972. Two years later, the entire sports world cheered when Art Rooney, one of world’s most popular sports figures, received the Vince Lombardi Trophy after the Steelers’ victory in Super Bowl IX. After so many years of frustration, the 1970s Steelers began one of the most incredible streaks in sports history when they earned eight consecutive playoff berths, seven AFC Central titles and four AFC championships from 1972 to 1979. The Steelers became the first team to win four Super Bowls and the only team to win back-to-back Super Bowls twice. The team of the decade of the 1970s became the first AFC team to win its division 10 times since the NFL’s 1970 merger. The list of Pittsburgh Steelers heroes of the 1970s is long but it begins with Head Coach Chuck Noll, who took control of the team in 1969. Such stars as defensive tackle Joe Greene, linebackers Jack Ham and Jack Lambert, quarterback Terry Bradshaw, cornerback Mel Blount and running back Franco Harris were the backbone of a team that many insist was the finest ever in pro football. All, including Noll, were accorded membership in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in their first years of eligibility.

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 2, No. 12 (1980) THE MUGGING OF BOBBY LAYNE By Bob Braunwart & Bob Carroll Based in part on material supplied by Dr. Lawrence E. Ziewacz On days when things are a little slow around the newsroom, any sportswriter worth his cliches can always pound out a couple of thousand words decrying the violence in football. Of course, the game has given out plenty of ammunition. Item: In a football game between two black teams at Mt. Vernon, N.Y., in 1902, a defensive back threatened an oncoming running back with a knife. When the ball carried crossed the goal line, he was stabbed. Item: In 1905, football was nearly outlawed as "too violent." Newspapers across the country printed a weekly tool of dead and maimed. Only rule changes stemming from a Presidential conference saved the game. Item: The Rock Island Argus of November 8, 1920, headlined "Staleys Win World's Dirt Title" after four Rock Islanders were kayoed during a tie with Decatur. In one incident, Rock Island's Hal Gunderson was nearly killed when the Staley's George Trafton "slid across his face." In 1956, as pro football was first finding national headlines consistently, a flap took place at Wrigley Field in Chicago that seemed to make the game look quite bloodthirsty. Yet, following the dictum that the only bad publicity is none at all, the incident may well have actually fueled the pro football fever that has gripped the country for the past 25 years. As a flap, it had all you could ask for.

  • Texas Sports Hall of Fame
    Texas Sports Hall of Fame The Texas Sports Hall of Fame was organized in 1951 by the Texas Sports Writers Association. Each year the honorees are inducted into the Hall of Fame at a gala dinner. (The second such fete in 1952 was headlined by, “That filmland athlete, Ronald Reagan, and his actress wife, Nancy Davis,” The Dallas Morning News, June 9, 1952.) The hall was originally in Grand Prairie in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The Hall of Fame was closed in 1986 for financial reasons, but in 1991 it was reopened in Waco. In addition to memorabilia, the new location also houses archives. Under the current selection process, dues-paying members of the Texas Sports Hall of Fame can nominate any number of individuals. (Anyone can become a member.) The selection committee, chaired by Dave Campbell, founder of Texas Football Magazine, reviews all nominees and creates the “Official Voting Membership” ballot. Ballots are then mailed to the voting membership, former Texas Sports Hall of Fame inductees and the media selection committee. The results of the balloting are announced in the fall with the induction banquet following in the winter. The hall of fame website is at www.tshof.org.
