Marshall was definitely a bigot, and greedy too. But as the article points out, he also did a lot of good for the game. There's a reason he was part of the inaugural class of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

i just read it on my trip from Ashburn back to Richmond. I thought it was a good read and found it kind of weird that they held camp in LA back in the 40s. I had also forgot the story about Sammy Baugh getting the new car and wrecking it the same day. Any of you that haven't read it; should.
