Brisco truly is criminally underrated. I’m so happy he made this list. What he did during that time was huge for America, and with one throw he changed the world. Thanks for putting him on the list.
I have another one for you (courtesy of one David Land): Maude Yagle, the first woman to win the Indianapolis 500 event as a car owner, all the way back in 1929!!
You should do a video on my alma mater Washington & Jefferson College, the smallest school to play in the Rose Bowl in 1922, featuring the first black quarterback to play a bowl game. The 11 man roster held Cal to a scoreless tie.
Actually the first black starting quarterback in the nfl was kind of Fritz Pollard but the forward pass wasn't a thing back then so he was basically a running back.
@@adambyrne1201 maybe, Pollard wasn't a QB he was. HB we Don't know if he ever 'started' a game at QB and many of his games were not in the NFL. but I hear ya👍
Moses Fleet Walker was also a really smart dude, an intellectual with a college education. This probably further alienated the typical player of that time - a rural, uneducated white guy with a probable drinking problem, also likely to be a first or second generation immigrant of Irish lineage. Truly and tragedy ahead of his time; while he’s been forgotten by the general public, at least any baseball historian worth 2 WAR knows his story
Wendell Scott was the first black driver to win a NASCAR race. He competed in the deep south during the 60s and 70s so you probably can't even imagine what he went through. His achievements, on and off the track, are worthy of much more attention than he's ever gotten.
It took NASCAR two years after the fact to recognize him as the winner of that race. He not only won that race, but was ahead of the second place driver by two laps. He died in 1990, but his family never got the trophy of the race he won until 2010 😢
Scott built and worked on his own cars too. And it's worth noting that the other drivers, even at the time, largely respected and appreciated what he was capable of doing.
Brisco didn't play Quarterback in the NFL. He played in 1968 and the merger wasn't until 1970. I'm kinda disappointed FPV, usually you get the details like these right
I still don't know how Jim caldwell isn't still coaching a team at this moment. He was showing some hope for the lions playoff chances and had a winning record the year they fired him.
5:30 It was NPB, JBL was the pre-1950 league. Also its Nippon-Ham Fighters, not Nippon Ham-Fighters. As the famous quote goes: "They have no quarrel with Ham"
Last time I was this early I was early. Edit: Not trying to be a sexist, but Sarah Fuller was legit leading Heisman voting earlier. This ain't Make-A-Wish.
@@YourAverageDolphinsFan Pretty much this. If a woman played a full season as a kicker and put up amazing stats that outclassed her fellow peers, yet another kicker was selected for the Lou Groza award despite not being as good as the woman, then I can understand being irritated. Fuller was not necessarily stellar nor did she even play a full season.
Actually some people think that William Edward white (who's career predated Walker) Was the first black player and the only former slave to play in the MLB again he might have been white but he should at least be mentioned
Louis Sockalexis, arguably the first Native American to play pro baseball, played for the Cleveland Spiders. It's argued that their name change shortly thereafter to the Indians was because of him. He also had a cousin that was an Olympian I believe. He was a Penobscott, the tribe from where Stephen King grew up.
I thought about Miguel Cobrera. I think he's from Puerto Rico. Playing with the Seattle Mariners and then heading to Detroit. Probably the most humble player and athelete.
Let’s give a shoutout to the Loyola Chicago and Cincinnati men’s basketball teams of the early 1960s. They were first team to win a title with a majority black starting lineup. Loyola in 62 would have 5 black players on the court. Hell when Loyola and Mississippi State played each other it was known as the game of change
In the NHL a player named Larry Kwong, who is of Asian heritage, played in 1948 which makes him the first non-white NHL player by 10 years. Willie O'Ree gets the focus for breaking the color barrier in hockey in 1958, but Kwong is a name that is truly unknown.
First black QB to play in the NFL was Willie Thrower who went in at QB for the Chicago Bears. He was also the first black QB in the Big Ten for Michigan State. Even on the scale of forgotten trailblazers, Willie Thrower is doubly forgotten.
You forgot one also The female kicker for the New Mexico Lobos. Katharine Anne Hnida. She's probably the first female to score points for a D1 program.
This is one of my favorite videos you have done so far. it was very informative and definitely made me pause and think a little bit. I hope you do a part two at some point.
It’s hard to convert a football (soccer) player into a football (American) player man or woman. I remember the Jets hired someone from team USA as a punter... and he wound up running away from the receiving team in terror!
For what it's worth Bernie Curtis was the first black CFL quarterback in 1951. Despite being named an All-Star he converted to running-back the next season - eventually winning the league championship Grey Cup in 1953 with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
Chuck Ealey of the CFL's Hamilton Ti-Cats was a victim of Racism from the NFL. The man was undefeated as a college QB playing for the University of Toledo. Never lost a college game in 4 years. Wasn't drafted. Ealey was told by NFL scouts that they would draft him if switched to defensive back. He told them no, if they wouldn't draft him as a QB, he wouldn't play for them. Came up to Canada and won a Grey Cup as a rookie QB. Ealey became a CFL Hall of Famer.
Kenny Washington: First black player to sign an NFL contract in the modern era Sara Christian: First female NASCAR driver Wendell Scott: First black NASCAR driver to win a race Fritz Pollard: First black NFL head coach Nat "Sweetwater" Clifton, Earl Lloyd, and Charles Cooper: First black NBA players (Cooper being the first black player drafted)
Fact that may surprise some people: the first black head coach in the NFL wasn't hired until 1989 (Art Shell), although he wasn't the first minority head coach. That was Tom Flores, and both of them were hired by Al Davis, who wasn't afraid to buck the trend. We had to wait until 1995 to see another black head coach on the sidelines. That was when the Eagles hired Ray Rhodes. Since then, the number of black head coaches has gone up, but as we keep seeing from time to time, plenty of qualified black coaches still don't get a fair consideration for the job, even with the Rooney Rule in place.
I met marlin briscoe in an elevator hotel in Atlanta a couple days before he was giving a speech at the college football hall of fame, really cool and down to earth guy. And he let me wear his sb ring
I knew who Isreael Bissel was. When I brought him up in class, the teacher glared at me like I had grown another head. And that was back in the day when you had to use the Dewey Decimal System and Microfiche to find things out. Yeah, I'm old ..
I’ve known about Briscoe for a number of years. I believe he still holds the Broncos record for most TD passes by a rookie. I also emailed him once to say I can’t believe he doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He emailed me back and thanked me for my email. Also, I believe the first Black to make a team as a QB was Willie Thrower (that was his real name) of the Bears. Unfortunately, his career never amounted to much.
Pretty sad that it took Willie O'Ree nearly 40 years after he played in the NHL to get into the Hall-of-Fame. Glad he has been honoured and shown the respect he deserves.
You make a video called forgotten trailblazers in sports but you forgot one also. The female kicker for the New Mexico Lobos. Katharine Anne Hnida. She's probably the first female to score points for a D1 program.
Reminiscent of Kathy Ireland in the movie "Necessary Roughness" as a soccer player turned college football kicker. (Yes, it was fiction, but a good movie.)

Good 411, I remember M. Briscoe in DEN but didn't know he was on the 72 undefeated MIA squad. Thanks for clearing up the 2 previous female kickers before Vanderbilt this year. Fleet Walker MLB C Tulsa was inspiring as is Dirk Graham NHL CHI Blackhawks. Appreciate the research/fact finding.
Sarah Fuller: the power five are no better than any other school, ask UFC, BOISE STATE, BYU. TCU OH yeah let not forget app. state victory over Michigan in the big house
Can we stop insinuating that Bieniemy isn't getting hired because he's black? There have been countless black head coaches in the NFL at this point, such as Tony Dungy, Todd Bowles, Anthony Lynn, Mike Tomlin, and Brian Flores just off the top of my head. He interviewed for at least 5 positions this offseason and didn't get offered any of them. Surely all five of those franchises can't be racist right? Let's talk about them one by one. Jets: Previously hired Todd Bowles (black) Jaguars: Owned by a person of color (Kahn is from Pakistan) Chargers: Previously hired Anthony Lynn (black) Falcons: Promoted Raheem Morris (black) to interim head coach after firing Quinn Lions: Previously hired Jim Caldwell (black) Every single one of these teams has had a black coach or a person of a minority race in a powerful position. Maybe Bieniemy just hasn't interviewed well, or teams don't think he's had as much to do with KC's success as it appears. Why would any of those teams hire a black coach and then blackball Bieniemy because he's black? There's enough bullshit going on right now related to race, can we stop making things that aren't about race, about race?
I'm just happy we get to learn about those who deserved it
I freaking love this guy. He makes me feel so smart.
Feelings can be wrong. Lol. Jk

This is true

Sarah Fuller, enters the NFL draft gets selected wins sits on the bench and wins 20 mvps
She’s better than Dan Bailey 😂
Her and Cody Parkey should have a kick off
She’ll probably get drafted by the pats
Wouldn’t be surprised if they made her a HOF in her first game
@@sadcowboysfan8864 Honestly she’d fairly go to the hall of fame for making history, Kendall Hinton is already in it

Splitting hairs here, James Harris was the NFL's 1st starting black QB Marlon Briscoe was the AFLs 1st starting black QB

@@adambyrne1201 Pollard was also the NFL's first black coach, or do i remember wrongly? I think je was a player-coach.
@@elephantyarn7378 yes he was, I think he player coached in the mid 1920s then came back as just a coach in the early 30s

There is an episode of the Dollop about Walker. It's such a troubling but fascinating story.
Always draft Mirakami in OOTP, more often than not he becomes a HoF reliever
The day is always better when a Five Points video is uploaded!
Another thing about Moses Fleetwood Walker was that his brother Weldy was the 2nd Black Major League player
Actually some people think that William Edward white (who's career predated Walker) Was the first black player and the only former slave to play in the MLB again he might have been white but he should at least be mentioned
I honestly had no idea that Dirk Graham was a POC. I’ll never forget the hat trick in game 4 of the 1992 SCF.
There was a kicker at new Mexico in the early 2000s too. Played in a bowl game and scored
