Practice, Yale (LOC)

  Back in those days, guys practiced with no helmets and in fact some guys did not wear helmets in the games. Also, nearly all teams wore the same pants, a tan color. Ha, those were the days

• Σταύρος said:

  I read in the picture prior to this one that there wasn't passing,only running?

• In Memoriam: budderflyman said:

  Well, as I recall, Walter Camp invented the "forward pass" in the early 1900s. They did throw the ball in the backfield, mostly laterals. The ball back then was a bit rounder and harder to pass compared to the modern day ball. Football was more a running game, more like rugby. I wish there were more old movies to watch of football. Most of the films I have seen are very brief and from a distance. They had some interesting film strips of Jim Thorpe playing around 1915 on a recent special about him. I can't recall if that was on PBS or on the History Channel. I think it is incredible that the Carlisle Indian School could beat powerful teams like Army. Carlisle Indian School was not even a college. There is no question in my mind that Jim Thorpe was the most talented athlete of all time. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlisle_Indian_Industrial_School Here is something I found on the forward pass. Claims it was invented at UNC. Hard to say. tarheelmania.wordpress.com/2007/09/13/unc-invented-the-fo...
