Hi. It looks to me like you made a mistake in the description of [[:File:Ray Rogers Pearl quarterback.jpg]]. I was getting ready to categorize it as being from 1921 in Mississippi, but I've never seen a football helmet like that from such an early era, so I did a quick google-- per [http://my.hsj.org/Schools/Newspaper/tabid/100/view/frontpage/schoolid/1660/articleid/212347/newspaperid/1646/Default.aspx], the team didn't even exist until 1948. So I removed the date -- if you have better info, please provide it. By the way, is he the same Ray Rogers as [http://billstatus.ls.state.ms.us/members/house/rogers_(61st).xml this politician]?

Hi. It looks to me like you made a mistake in the description of File:Ray Rogers Pearl quarterback.jpg. I was getting ready to categorize it as being from 1921 in Mississippi, but I've never seen a football helmet like that from such an early era, so I did a quick google-- per [1], the team didn't even exist until 1948. So I removed the date -- if you have better info, please provide it. By the way, is he the same Ray Rogers as this politician? Cheers, -- Infrogmation (talk) 06:22, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
