Roy \"Wrong Way\" Riegels (April 4, 1908 – March 26, 1993) played for the University of California, Berkeley football team from 1927 to 1929. His wrong-way run in the 1929 Rose Bowl is often cited as the worst blunder in the history of college football. On January 1, 1929, the Golden Bears faced the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, USA. Midway through the second quarter, Riegels, who played center, picked up a fumble by Tech’s Jack \"Stumpy\" Thomason. Ju — americanfootballdatabase.fandom.com

Scrimmage
This is #11 in a series covering football’s original 61 rules adopted by the Intercollegiate Football Association in 1876. We review one rule each Friday.

That sense of scrimmage appeared in American newspapers by 1828, seeing far greater use than — www.footballarchaeology.com

From Goat to Good
Teams did not kick field goals in the 1950s with the same frequency as today. College teams often did not attempt field goals in situations we would consider nearly automatic today because straight-ahead kickers were less accurate, did not kick as far as the sidewinders that soon became popular, and the limited substitution rules of the time meant the player doing the kicking was generally among the team’s eleven starters. The kicker was often the best all-around athlete on the team, which is — www.footballarchaeology.com

NFLers Avoid Campus Women
I don’t know whether NFL players and prospects still receive a list of dos and don’ts upon arrival at training camp, but they did when the Chicago Cardinals arrived at Lake Forest College to prepare for the 1956 season. The Cardinals went 7-5 that year, good for second place in the league’s Eastern Conference, but they failed to attract much attention among Chicagoans, who trickled into Comiskey Park for Cardinals’ home games. Even after starting the season 4-0, only 30,553 bothered show — www.footballarchaeology.com

Before There Was Pass Interference
It isn’t easy to get things right on the first go-around, as shown when the forward pass became legal in 1906. The rules heavily restricted the forward pass, and the game lacked proven throwing, catching, and route-running techniques we now consider obvious. Also missing were rules concerning pass interference. — www.footballarchaeology.com
Timothy P. Brown has dug up the dirt on what football looked like before restrictions of interference during a forward pass in this Football Archaeology post.

Why is writing important to you and why do you think it’s an important medium for the world? “My average isn’t .385 in hitting; it’s .107 in getting splinters.” These were lines 4-5 of a poorly hand-written fourth grade ‘Ode […] — authorsguild.org

Athlete And Real Estate Investor
The NFLPA put out this pretty interesting post on Devon Kennard, an NFL veteran linebacker currently with the Arizona Cardinals, who previously played with the New York Football Giants, and the Detroit Lions.
Learning of the short but lucrative career that NFL players have from his father Derek Kennard, who had won a Super Bowl ring as a member of the Dallas Cowboys, Devon wisely invested his money and time in real estate to leverage his assets to propel his livelihood in life after football some day. Brilliant work by this bright man!

First APFA Game Played
September 26, 1920 - The first game featuring an American Professional Football Association team would be played on September 26, 1920 as the Rock Island Independents beat up on their non-league opponent the St. Paul Ideals 48-0. The APFA would change its name to the National Football League in 1922 so in essence this is the very first NFL game played involving at least one team that was in Ralph Hay’s organizational meeting on September 17, 1920.
