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

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.

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.

Cal Tech Eyeglass Shield

I’m a sucker for oddball pieces of player equipment that one person or another developed along the way, and the more quickly the equipment died out, the better. Facial and eye protection is among football’s richest veins for oddball equipment. The nose guards of the 1890s and 1910s led to executioner’s masks in the 1920s, and birdcage face masks in the 1930s, and a proliferation of Lucite and rubber-covered metal masks in the 1950s. — www.footballarchaeology.com
Timothy P. Brown takes his Football Archaeology back to an innovation by the Cal tech team where they protected the players who wore glasses with a face shield.
