  • In Detroit, Where the Wheels Fell Off
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 19, No. 3 (1997) IN DETROIT, WHERE THE WHEELS FELL OFF by Mark Speck Detroit's pro football history is alive with the names of many wonderful heroes from a colorful past ... Potsy Clark, Buddy Parker, Bobby Layne, Alex Karras, Night Train Lane, Greg Landry, Altie Taylor, Joe Schmidt, Dick LeBeau, Bubba Wyche, Sheldon Joppru..... Bubba Wyche?! Sheldon Joppru?! Don't recognize them? Well, they too are a part of Detroit's history. Most of Detroit's history in professional football has been written by the N.F.L. Lions, one of the league's most fabled franchises. Their history, and the city's, is full of great teams, great stars, great plays and great games. For one year, however, the Lions shared Detroit with an ugly step-sister who wrote a chapter of the city's football history that most people would probably like to forget. That ugly stepsister was the Detroit Wheels. No, not Mitch Ryder's back-up band. These Detroit Wheels were a football team, or what passed for a football team that played in the World Football League in 1974. Wyche, brother of Sam Wyche, and Joppru were just two members of this Wheels' cast of characters that shared Detroit with the Lions. Actually, to set the record straight, they didn't really share Detroit with the Lions. The Wheels couldn't find a home in the city, so they had to play their home games in Ypsilanti, thirty-five miles from downtown Detroit, at Rynearson Stadium on the campus of Eastern Michigan University.

  • THE HISTORY of SMU FOOTBALL 1910S on the Morning of Sept
    OUTLOOK PLAYERS COACHES OPPONENTS REVIEW RECORDS HISTORY MEDIA THE HISTORY OF SMU FOOTBALL 1910s On the morning of Sept. 14, 1915, coach Ray Morrison held his first practice, thus marking the birth of the SMU football program. Morrison came to the school in June of 1915 when he became the coach of the University’s football, basketball, baseball and track teams, as well as an instructor of mathematics. A former All-Southern quarterback at Vanderbilt, Morrison immediately installed the passing game at SMU. A local sportswriter nicknamed the team “the Parsons” because the squad was composed primarily of theology students. SMU was a member of the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which ruled that neither graduate nor transfer students were eligible to play. Therefore, the first SMU team consisted entirely of freshmen. The Mustangs played their first game Oct. 10, 1915, dropping a 43-0 decision to TCU in Fort Worth. SMU bounced back in its next game, its first at home, to defeat Hendrix College, 13-2. Morrison came to be known as “the father of the forward pass” because of his use of the passing game on first and second downs instead of as a last resort. • During the 1915 season, the Mustangs posted a record of 2-5 and scored just three touchdowns while giving up 131 Ownby Stadium was built in 1926 points. SMU recorded the first shutout in school history with a 7-0 victory over Dallas University that year. • SMU finished the 1916 season 0-8-2 and suffered its worst 1920s 1930s loss ever, a 146-3 drubbing by Rice.

  • The Crafting of the Sports Broadcasting Act by Denis M
    It Wasn’t a Revolution, but it was Televised: The Crafting of the Sports Broadcasting Act by Denis M. Crawford Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the History Program YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY May, 2017 It Wasn’t a Revolution, but it was Televised: The Crafting of the Sports Broadcasting Act Denis M. Crawford I hereby release this thesis to the public. I understand that this thesis will be made available from the OhioLINK ETD Center and the Maag Library Circulation Desk for public access. I also authorize the University or other individuals to make copies of this thesis as needed for scholarly research. Signature: Denis M. Crawford, Student Date Approvals: Dr. David Simonelli, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. Donna DeBlasio, Committee Member Date Dr. Thomas Leary, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT This thesis aims to provide historical context for the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 which allowed professional sports teams to collectively negotiate television contracts and equally share in the revenues. According to Immanuel Wallerstein, the state crafting legislation to allow an anticompetitive business practice is an example of a basic contradiction of capitalism being reconciled. Researching the development of the SBA unveils two historically significant narratives. The first is the fact that antitrust legislator Emanuel Celler crafted the act with the intent of providing the National Football League competition although the act unintentionally aided the formation of a professional football monopoly. The other is that the act legalized a collectivist business practice in a time of anticommunist fervor and was written by a legislator with well-documented anticommunist credentials.

  • Letting Time Serve You: Boot Camps and Alternative
    LEAGUE STRUCTURE & STADIUM RENT-SEEKING—THE ROLE OF ANTITRUST REVISITED David Haddock, Tonja Jacobi & Matthew Sag* ―O wad some Power the giftie gie us‖† Abstract Professional North American sporting teams receive enormous public funding for new and renovated stadiums after threatening to depart their hometowns, or by actually moving elsewhere. In contrast, English sporting teams neither receive much public money for such projects, nor move towns. This Article argues that no inherent cultural or political transatlantic variations cause the differences; rather, it is the industrial organization of sports in the two countries—the structure of league control—that enables rent-seeking by American teams but not by their English counterparts. Cross-country time series data contrasting American professional football and baseball stadiums with English soccer grounds support our claim, as does data contrasting the stadiums of geographically flexible National Football League teams with those of functionally immobile major collegiate football teams. North American sports leagues are cartels: they control entry of teams, then collaborate to maximize effective rent-seeking, stave off competition, and keep prices high. In most of the world, competitive merit determines entrance into leagues via a system known as promotion and relegation, which demotes the worst performing teams in one competitive tier to the next lower tier at season‘s end, simultaneously promoting an equivalent number of top teams from the division below. The fluidity created by promotion and relegation severely undermines the credibility of a team‘s threat to leave town by creating alternative, less costly entry points into the league.

  • Broncos' Emmanuel Sanders Sheds Walking Boot After Achilles Surgery
    LOOK: Broncos’ Emmanuel Sanders sheds walking boot after Achilles surgery By Kyle Fredrickson Denver Post Feb. 6, 2019 If Emmanuel Sanders’ dance moves are any indication, he’s reached an important milestone in his injury rehabilitation this offseason. Sanders, a ninth-year Broncos’ wide receiver who tore his Achilles during practice in December, posted a video Monday to Instagram of himself hopping out of a black Mercedes-Benz SUV — without a walking boot — before a quick celebratory jig. His caption read: “Slight limp but I’m finally out of the boot.” Two months have passed between Sanders’ injury and the post, but a long journey remains for him to be able to play. Former NFL team doctor David Chao told The Denver Post in December: “Recovery is not like a light switch, more of a slow sunrise. Some have returned as early as six months but may not have been 100 percent. Nine months is a good target but to really be explosive (it) could be longer and closer to a year. This is why I expect (Sanders) likely will not be ready or 100 percent for start of (the 2019) season.” However, Sanders expressed little doubt in December he’ll return to being the same playmaker he showcased in 12 games last season with a team-leading 71 receptions for 868 yards. He also accounted for six total touchdowns (four receiving, one rushing and one passing). “I’ll definitely for sure be ready for Week 1,” Sanders said in December. “This is a six-month injury. I heal fast.” Never-before-told stories about Pat Bowlen from those who know him best — his children By Mike Klis 9 News Feb.

  • 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.
