  • PFRA-Ternizing
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 28, No. 6 (2006) PFRA-ternizing From Bob Gill: With help from Tod Maher, I've recently finished a book called "Outsiders: Minor League and Independent Football, 1923-1950," published by St. Johann Press. This is a companion book to "Minor League Football, 1980-1985," which McFarland published four years ago. Between them, these books contain a pretty thorough account of all of the top minor leagues and independent teams that have ever existed, and quite a few others a notch or two below that. The new book contains the basic information (aside from the individual game statistics) from a half-dozen PFRA books I did a while back: "Best in the West" (PCFL 1940-48), "A Minor Masterpiece," Vols. I and II (American Association 1936-41, AFL 1946-50), "The Outsiders" (AFLs of 1936-41, with Tad Maher), "Southern Exposure" (Dixie League, 1936-46) and "Down in the Valley" (Ohio Valley League, 1925-29). It's presented differently, though: Rather than yearly rosters for each team, this book has a player register so you can trace the careers of individual players or look up one guy you're interested in, which was basically impossible before. (Coaches get a register of their own.) There are hundreds of new bits of information about the players -- we've added heights, colleges, birthdates, whatever, though it's still far from complete and always will be. Game scores are included for the top teams, in basically the same form as in the PFRA books. And there's a section listing regular starters for all the top teams by year, which is something new.
