  13. What if Bert Bell lived? An American Football Timeline

    How does Bert Bell living have such dramatic changes on the cities the AFL chooses early on?
  14. Confederate States of America: An Inviable Nation?

    I'll make one more post and then respectfully bow out because these threads never end up productive. "Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated." Things change. The...
