Cardinals in Chicago - Joe Ziemba Interview (Part 2)   Tweet  

This is the 2nd part of the Joe Ziemba interview covering the time when there were Cardinals in Chicago.  If you have not listened to the 1st part of the Joe Ziemba interview covering the Chicago Cardinals' early history, I recommend you go back here.  If you've already listened to that episode, then let's proceed with the 2nd part, covering the time period of World War II and beyond.

Here you can find the dedicated Joe Ziemba page.

Joe has spent many years learning about the history of the Arizona/St. Louis/Chicago/Racine Cardinals (oh, so many names).  The thing that sparked his interest was finding out his dad was drafted by the Cardinals back in the 40s, but the crazy thing is he never found out about this until his father passed away.  This led to him ultimately writing 2 books, When Football Was Football: The Chicago Cardinals and the Birth of the NFL and Cadets, Canons, and Legends: The Football History of Morgan Park Military Academy.
