Post by Ken Crippen »

The latest issue of "The Coffin Corner" is now available for immediate download in the Members Only section of the PFRA website. The issue includes:

"PFRA-ternizing." The inductees in the Hall of Very Good’s class of 2018 are announced—Lyle Alzado, Dick Anderson, Ken Gray, Lee Roy Jordan, Earl Morrall, Ralph Neely and Fred Smerlas—along with deadline reminders on the PFRA elections and membership renewals for next year.


"Patriot Games: Boston’s Front Four—One of the AFL’s Best" by Ed Gruver. The exploits of the Boston Patriots defensive line is explored along with biographical information on starters Larry Eisenhauer, Jim Lee Hunt, Houston Antwine, and Bob Dee, along with former Eagles player and contributing member Jess Richardson.

"The Great White North: Heisman Trophy Winners in the CFL" by Randy Snow. Our aptly-named author examines the careers of the nine Heisman award winners who played in Canada and the varying degrees of success (or lack thereof) they experienced while there.

"Jacksonville Before the Jaguars" by Barry Shuck. A short history of professional football in the northern Florida city with teams from the WFL (Sharks and Express), American Football Association (Firebirds and Sunbirds), and USFL (Bulls) covered, as well as the beginnings of the current NFL franchise.

"Nine Years of Dislike: Raiders vs. Steelers, 1972–1980" by Harvey Aronson. The bitter rivalry between the teams from Oakland and Pittsburgh in the Seventies is revisited—a rivalry born out of one of the most famous plays in NFL history.
