  • '39 PACKERS ONE of GREEN BAY's GREATEST TEAMS by Stanley Grosshandler (Originally Published in Pro Football Digest)
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 5 (1996) '39 PACKERS ONE OF GREEN BAY'S GREATEST TEAMS by Stanley Grosshandler (Originally published in Pro Football Digest) You are right about the 1939 Packers. They were really one of the great ball clubs," replied Clarke Hinkle when asked what was the greatest Green Bay club he had ever played on. The Packers started playing pro ball in 1919; and while they produced 11 World Champions, the most outstanding have been Curly Lambeau's teams of 1929 and 1939 and the Vince Lombardi club of 1962. "I joined the Packers in 1932," recalled Hinkle, a Hall of Fame fullback, "and we had a fine club that year. There were fellows like Dilweg, Earpe, Blood, Hubbard, Michalske, Lewellen, and Herber. We ended with a 10-3-1 record, yet they awarded the title to the Bears on a ridiculous record of 7 wins, 1 loss, and 6 ties. "Our '39 bunch was very versatile. We had four good punters in Arnie Herber, Cecil Isbell, Frank Balaz, and myself; four placement kickers with Tiny Engebretsen, Don Hutson, Ernie Smith, and yours truly; and two of the greatest passers in football history - Cecil Isbell and Arnie Herber. "While there were 33 players on the roster, we relied on 16 men who played a lot of the 60 minutes of each game. "These 16 fellows stayed healthy through a tough 11-game schedule. What contributed to our success? We had an intense desire to get the job done, pride and loyalty to the team and supreme confidence that we could win".

The Bears and Spartans were also. • An injury caused Verne Lewellen to miss seven games. • Green Bay’s offense scored 116 more points than any other team. Their defense ranked second only to Portsmouth. • One game separated the Packers and Spartans at season’s end. Portsmouth claimed the Packers had pledged to play a game after the season. Green Bay denied doing so. Portsmouth appealed to Commissioner Joe Carr, but the appeal was denied. • Go! You Packers Go!

  • The Packer Fullbacks
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 21, No. 6 (1999) THE PACKER FULLBACKS By Stan Grosshandler To the long time NFL fan, the word fullback conjures up the picture of a powerfully built man crashing into the line head down and knees up. On defense he backed up the line like a stone wall. The name Bronko Nagurski immediately comes to mind as the prototype fullback. The term fullback is about to go the way of the terms as end, blocking back, halfback, and wingback. The usual NFL fullback today is the up man in a two man backfield used as a blocker and occasional pass receiver. The Green Bay Packers have had their share of “real fullbacks”. Their first one of note was Bo Molenda, who played a total of 13 years in the NFL. He started with the Packers in 1928, and then was a member of the three straight championship teams of ‘29,'30, and ‘31. In the Lambeau system the FB stood beside and to the right of the LH or tailback in the Notre Dame box. In a position to receive the ball directly from the center he had to be able to run wide, plunge, spin and hand off, plus pass and receive. Ideal for this job was Clarke Hinkle, who joined the team in 1932 out of Bucknell. Clarke did it all, run, pass, receive, kick both extra points and field goals, and backed up the line. He topped the league in scoring in 1938 (58 points) and led twice in field goals. Hinkle is now in both the Professional and College Halls of Fame.

After winning six of the National Football League’s first 24 championships, the Packers won only 55 games, while losing 107 and tying 3, from 1945 through 1958. No wonder that Packer fans dwelt on the past, and the great legends of the past—Canadeo, Hutson, Herber, Hubbard, Hinkle, Dilweg, Lewellen, Isbell, Michalske, Lambeau. But the greatest legend of all was Johnny Blood, because he was not only a great football player, but also a colorful, flamboyant personality off the field. (His one-time teammate and fellow member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Clarke Hinkle, once said, “Next to Johnny Blood, Joe Namath looks like Little Lord Fauntleroy.”) I grew up in Green Bay during that period and, by the time I was thirteen and thinking of becoming a writer, I knew that someday I wanted to write a book about this legendary charac- ter.

  • Ernie Smith by John Maxymuk Adapted from Packers by the Numbers, Prairie Oak Press, 2003
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 27, No. 4 (2005) Ernie Smith By John Maxymuk Adapted from Packers By the Numbers, Prairie Oak Press, 2003. 70 years ago pro football was not at all major league. Working conditions were sparse, medical treatment was primitive and pay was paltry. There was no television and no Internet; games were covered on radio or not at all. Newspapers were the media giant, but they relegated all but major league baseball to deep inside the limited sports pages. Football coverage meant college football. Ernie Smith is an illustrative case. He was a large All-American tackle for Coach Howard Jones’ two-time national champion University of Southern California Trojans. He and his linemates averaged 50-55 minutes a game and allowed only two touchdowns all season. Were he playing today with a resume like that on either side of the ball, he’d be a high first round draft choice who would sign an extended contract for millions of dollars a year with several million upfront as a signing bonus. His agent would take his cut off the top and help guide the newly-rich tackle in ways to invest his new wealth so that he might never have to work again after football. Of course, there would be no guarantee on the soundness of those investments or of the person the player selects to manage the money, but the potential is there to be “set for life.” 6'2" 220 pound Ernie Smith graduated in 1933, however, and did not even turn pro immediately. He spent the 1933 and 1934 seasons coaching the USC freshman team and getting started in a career in insurance that would last 53 years.

  • Still Another Look at Early Interceptions
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 17, No. 4 (1995) STILL ANOTHER LOOK AT EARLY INTERCEPTIONS by Ed Coen About a year ago, Bob Gill wrote an article in The Coffin Corner ("Another Look at Interception Stats," Vol. XV, No. 5), in which he explored the issue of who was the all-time leader in interceptions before official statistics were kept, i.e., 1941. At the end of the article, he suggested that someone with access to the Green Bay Press-Gazette could answer a lot of questions by checking the play-by-plays from 1935 through 1940. I took him up on that and this article presents the results of that work. First, a word on the play-by-plays. For the most part, the play-by-plays of the home games and the Western Division road games were complete. Some of the accounts of the East Coast games were incomplete, ranging from detailed accounts with a few gaps to a short one or two paragraph summary of each quarter. We were able, however, to construct a complete and fairly accurate record of all Packer interceptions in the period, using a combination of the play-by-plays, The Milwaukee Journal and Sentinel, and the hometown papers of the Packers' opponents. There were some discrepancies between the various sources, so a certain amount of judgment had to be used. According to Bob Gill's article, Johnny Blood retired as the NFL's all-time leading interceptor with 37, Sammy Baugh had 36, and Don Hutson had 34. I found two additional interceptions for Blood and the 1994 edition of The Football Encyclopedia by Neft, Cohen, and Korch, credits him with one more than previous editions.

  • When the Packers Went to War
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 5, No. 2 (1983) Reprinted from The Packer Report, with permission When the Packers Went to War by Bob Barnett On the afternoon of December 7, 1941, the Green Bay Packers were in high spirits. Their 10-1 season record meant that only the Chicago Bears at 9-1 had any chance to tie them for the Western Division championship. On that Sunday afternoon no Packer expected anything worse than a Bear victory over their cross-town rivals the Chicago Cardinals. "We were in Chicago on December 7 to watch the Bears-Cardinals game. Coach Lambeau took the whole team down to scout the Bears," recalled Charles "Buckets" Goldenberg, a veteran Packer guard. "They announced the bombing of Pearl Harbor during the game. We just didn't know how it would affect anything. We were stunned like everyone else." There was little immediate change as far as pro football was concerned. The game continued and the Bears did indeed beat the Cardinals, 34-24. The following week the Bears easily beat the Packers, 34- 14, in a playoff game and the next week defeated the New York Giants, 37-9, for the NFL championship before a disappointingly small crowd of 13, 341. Tony Canadeo, a rookie tailback on the 1941 Packer team, said, "The playoff game drew a lot more fans than the championship because everyone knew either the Packers of the Bears would crush the Giants." Perhaps attendance would have been higher if fans had known the championship game would be their last opportunity for many years to watch teams of prewar caliber play.
