  • Statistical Leaders of the ‘20S
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 14, No. 2 (1992) Statistical Leaders of the ‘20s By Bob GIll Probably the most ambitious undertaking in football research was David Neft’s effort to re-create statistics from contemporary newspaper accounts for 1920-31, the years before the NFL started to keep its own records. Though in a sense the attempt had to fail, since complete and official stats are impossible, the results of his tireless work provide the best picture yet of the NFL’s formative years. Since the stats Neft obtained are far from complete, except for scoring records, he refrained from printing yearly leaders for 1920-31. But it seems a shame not to have such a list, incomplete though it may be. Of course, it’s tough to pinpoint a single leader each year; so what follows is my tabulation of the top five, or thereabouts, in passing, rushing and receiving for each season, based on the best information available – the stats printed in Pro Football: The Early Years and Neft’s new hardback edition, The Football Encyclopedia. These stats can be misleading, because one man’s yardage total will be based on, say, five complete games and four incomplete, while another’s might cover just 10 incomplete games (i.e., games for which no play-by-play accounts were found). And then some teams, like Rock Island, Green Bay, Pottsville and Staten Island, often have complete stats, based on play-by-plays for every game of a season. I’ll try to mention variations like that in discussing each year’s leaders – for one thing, “complete” totals will be printed in boldface.

  • The Staten Island Stapletons
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 6 (1985) THE STATEN ISLAND STAPLETONS By John Hogrogian Special thanks to N.F.L. Properties, Inc. for permission to publish this article. Trollies rolled down Broadway and Calvin Coolidge was president when the NFL came to New York City in 1925. In the years since Tim Mara founded the Giants, NFL teams have made their home in each of the City's five boroughs. The Giants played in the Polo Grounds in upper Manhattan through 1955, then moved to Yankee Stadium in the Bronx through 1973. The Brooklyn Dodgers football team thrived in Ebbets Field during the 1930s and 1940s. The Jets made their home in Shea Stadium in Queens from 1964 until recently. And, in the sleepiest of the boroughs, the Staten Island Stapletons played NFL ball from 1929 through 1932. The Stapes struggled through life on a shoestring, but helped keep the NFL afloat as it fought for life in the Depression. The Stapes started out in 1915, five years before the NFL was born in the midwest. Dan Blaine, a good halfback and a native of the working-class neighborhood known as Stapleton, along with three other players formed the team to play other semi-pro squads from New York and New Jersey. The Stapes played more for fun than money. Just as well: crowds were small; salaries averaged $10 per game. Nevertheless, they managed to do well, winning several local semi-pro titles before World War I. After military service, Blaine took over sole ownership in 1919. Blaine himself prospered in the 1920s.

What most do not see is precisely at the triangular confluence of West Post Road and Maple Avenue. Can’t guess? It is one of two outdoor World War I Monuments in White Plains (the other being located in Tibbits Park on North Broadway). The monument’s visibility has been diminished over the years, after its original structure was demolished, and then later due to the overgrowth of shrubs. But as we prepare for the 100th Anniversary of the United States entering World War I, the White Plains Historical Society is working to increase the visibility and awareness of a memorial commemorating the ultimate sacrifice made by young men from White Plains during what was supposed to be “the war to end all wars.” World War I commenced with major hostilities in Europe in August 1914. The United States did not formally enter the war on the side of the Allies until April 6, 1917. The war ended with the armistice of November 11, 1918.

  • 1927 Hominy Indians Defeat N
    In 1927 the Hominy Indians won a football game that has become the stuff of legend and, in 2018, the focal point of a movie, Playground of the Native Son. This caught my attention because the game was billed as Hominy vs. the 1927 NFL Champion New York Giants. The Giants, the story goes, were making a post-season swing out to California and stopped in Hominy thinking it would be an easy scrimmage for them but got beaten 13 – 6. This raised questions for the research I was doing on Steve Owen, who started every game for the Giants that 1927 season at left tackle. He went to college in Oklahoma and after he played in 1926 with the Giants, newspapers in Tulsa, Oklahoma, reported he signed on with Jim Kendrick’s Buffalo Rangers for the final game in a series of three contests with the Hominy Indians. But I had no evidence he actually played against Hominy in 1926 and no mention anywhere that he played in 1927 A 1992 article by Arthur Shoemaker in The Coffin Corner (the newsletter of the Professional Football Researchers Association) was entitled: Hail to the Real ‘Redskins’ - All Indian team from Hominy, Okla. , Took on All Comers. In it Shoemaker talks about the 1927 game and notes: “Newspaper accounts of the Indians-Giants fray tell of outstanding plays made by Giant halfback Ben Hobson and tackle Rudy Comstock. Interestingly enough, neither of them played for the Giants in any league games that year (Comstock played for Frankford, Hobson for Buffalo), which suggests that this was a barnstorming team with a number of “ringers” filling in around a nucleus of players from the champs.
