Topic: Tex Maule


  
  Tex Maule
In the 1960s, Tex Maule and the magazine he was associated with, Sports Illustrated, were exemplary of the way many sports reporters forgot what should be the first rule of their profession: "maintain impartiality".
Maule was known to his contemporaries as "an NFL guy", and rather than report the pro football scene objectively, he resorted to ridiculing and belittling the efforts of the American Football League and its players.
The reasons for this treatment are not clear, but may have reflected what seems to be a common fault of the profession, all tied to that lack of impartiality: writers sometimes associate so closely with the teams and leagues they cover, that they evidently feel that they are representatives of those leagues and teams.

 THE FRANCHISE: A HISTORY OF SPORTS ILLUSTRATED MAGAZINE
Senior editor Andy Crichton was reviewing the copy that writer Tex Maule had submitted prior to the fight, to see what could be preserved and combined with the main part of the story, which Maule was scheduled to send by telex from Houston at 2:30 a.m.
By three a.m., with Maule's rougher-than-usual copy arriving by teletype and the fate of the photographs sealed (the Learjet was grounded until morning), the sketches were finished.
Tex Maule, right or wrong, was the pro football writer, and I was the college football writer.

 Some Prominent Members of the American Maule Family
The Maules had opposed Cromwell and the Protectorate, and it is speculated that Thomas, who went first to Barbados, went there to find his father, who might have been sent there by Cromwell as a prisoner.
The result in Thomas Maule's trial was cited as authority in the John Peter Zenger case, which is regarded as the threshold decision underlying the development of the First Amendment principle of freedom of the press.
Tex was born on March 19, 1915, in Ojus, Texas.

Some, like Big Tex, are native sons (but rarely daughters; it’s perceived as a manly moniker); others eagerly embraced their adopted state.

 Super memories, Super game
Gone is the time when a guy like me could spend an entire season tagging around the football community and not run into more than a handful of football writers.
Football’s leading oracle at the time of Super Bowl I was Tex Maule of Sports Illustrated, who had predicted a Green Bay triumph by something around 66-6.
I think of the year the Super Bowl’s press quarters was in a room in Newport Beach with a piano, and the supposed wretches of the media would gather ’round it and sing.

 Professional Football Researchers Association- Pro Football History
The late Tex Maule, who covered the NFL for Sports Illustrated, had trouble writing the game story for Super Bowl III because he felt the Jets had been more lucky than good in defeating the Colts.
Said Maule, "The Chiefs were playing defense from a different philosophical stance than that used by most NFL clubs."
It was a philosophy that developed from the AFL's early days, when defensive coaches slid huge, dominating tackles like Buchanan, San Diego's Ernie Ladd, and Buffalo's Tom Sestak from their tackle position to head-up on the center.

 Gowdy's finest hour was Super Bowl III - Sports - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
For me, though, it's Curt Gowdy, NBC's play-by-play man, calling Sports Illustrated's Tex Maule a word that can't be used in this newspaper after the telecast was over -- but before the videotape machine had been turned off.
The only reason I've heard it is that I managed, some time ago, to obtain a copy of the live feed of the game (in a plain brown wrapper, naturally).
You see, Gowdy, who died Monday at 86, was the voice of the fly-in-the-ointment American Football League, and he took a fair amount of grief for championing the league's cause.

Instead of reacting normally to a feint, he flinched instinctively with his whole being, and when he ventured a lead to his left, his recovery into a protective crouch was exaggerated and somehow pitiful.
