The two myths: Gene Ronzani and Lisle Blackbourn each resigned from being the head coach of the Green Bay Packers. The truth: both were fired, and the Packer organization to this day continues to deny that both were dismissed. This fourth volume in the series on the history of the Green Bay Packers reveals the truth behind the headlines of the 1950s. Once again, the Packers survived the turmoil within the NFL and in their own back yard: achieved financial solvency - and even growth, - only to have this incredible feat soiled by underhanded dealings by the corporation's executive committee. The Packers did make some remarkable strides in the '50s, the most notable: The construction of a new stadium, which the corporation partially financed with the taxpayers of the city of Green Bay. - The Packers got their new stadium despite some wheeling-and-dealing by the corporation's own president that might have cost Green Bay its franchise in the NFL. On the field, the Packers went through a trio of coaches from 1950 through 1958. Gene Ronzani had the unenviable task of rebuilding a team that had been decimated by the Pro Football War between the NFL and the AAC. Wisconsin native son Lisle Blackbourn was hired away from his job as head coach at Marquette University to replace Ronzani. - Ray ''Scooter'' McLean, an assistant under both Ronzani and Blackbourn, was given the top post in 1958.
