The YouTube archives of Stump the Schwab only contain so many episodes. And the Schwab is the Schwab for a reason – he didn’t get a lot of questions wrong! So we need to go outside the show for our final question, which comes from a later ESPN interview with the Schwab. In that interview, he’s asked to name the first two black football players in the NFL, who both played in the 1920 debut season. Schwab could not give an answer for either one. One was a future Hall of Fame coach and player for the Akron Pros; the other was a multi-sport star from Minnesota. Name either man.
