Book Synopsis Ohio's Autumn Legends by : Larry Phillips
Download or read book Ohio's Autumn Legends written by Larry Phillips and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-10 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autumn offers a kaleidoscope of color setting the stage for a season of pads thumping, footballs spiraling and crowds roaring. There's a scent of football in the air. Amid that canvas some of the game's greatest talents emerged, from high school heroes to professional legends. Paul Brown, the Godfather of Ohio football, grew up in this culture, helped create it and indeed enhanced it. His is just one of the sport's most famous names who evolved from childhood games in Ohio to Super Bowl triumphs in front of the entire planet, and everything in between. The individual stories rank from the obscure Pete Henry to the worldwide brand of Roger Staubach. They reveal how a shy boy named Paul Warfield became a receiver who prompted a play-call from a U.S. president. How diminutive Archie Griffin grew into a collegiate giant, all within his hometown of Columbus. The tale of Elyria's Vic Janowicz reveals an American dream realized as the son of an immigrant became the forerunner of Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders. Discover Marion Motley's journey from a Canton Steel Mill to a racial pioneer and back down the street to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Book Synopsis The Forgotten First by : Keyshawn Johnson
Download or read book The Forgotten First written by Keyshawn Johnson and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unknown story of the Black pioneers who collectively changed the face of the NFL in 1946. THE FORGOTTEN FIRST chronicles the lives of four incredible men, the racism they experienced as Black players entering a segregated sport, the burden of expectation they carried, and their many achievements, which would go on to affect football for generations to come. More than a year before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball, there was another seismic moment in pro sports history. On March 21,1946, former UCLA star running back Kenny Washington—a teammate of Robinson's in college—signed a contract with the Los Angeles Rams. This ended one of the most shameful periods in NFL history, when African-American players were banned from league play. Washington would not be alone in serving as a pioneer for NFL integration. Just months after he joined the Rams, thanks to a concerted effort by influential Los Angeles political and civic leaders, the team signed Woody Strode, who played with both Washington and Robinson at UCLA in one of the most celebrated backfields in college sports history. And that same year, a little-known coach named Paul Brown of the fledgling Cleveland Browns signed running back Marion Motley and defensive lineman Bill Willis, thereby integrating a startup league that would eventually merge with the NFL. THE FORGOTTEN FIRST tells the story of one of the most significant cultural shifts in pro football history, as four men opened the door to opportunity and changed the sport forever.

This book is rich, alive, and shatteringly visceral. A triumph” (New Yorker). “I can’t begin to do justice to the nuances of character and honest complexities of plot in this work. The writing is precise and careful—and sings withal.” —Raymond Carver, Washington Post Book World
