Re: Skins history in Boston & World Series
The problem for Marshall was that Pro Football was generally viewed as a 2nd rate sport all over the country in the 1930s - not just up there. At that time the college game was where it was at.
I think that he would have had similar troubles in Washington were it not for the emergence of Sammy Baugh as the biggest star in the entire NFL. I think it was Baugh that saved the franchise more so than the move to D.C.
