[QUOTE=kjjavic;1466424]Here is an image of the 1902 Pittsburgh Pros football team (with Christy Mathewson included) that competed against Connie Mack's A's football team. The image is from the book: Illustrated History of Pro Football.
Whoa! Is the player in the middle of the photo an African-American?? If so, that is REALLY interesting considering several of the football players that were on these teams were actually baseball players from the segregated Major League.
