Talk:St. Louis Raiders

Gap
There is definitely no gap in the record. They simply became Paul Schultes which was not amateur. The St. Louis Major League was pro. FIFA may not have considered it a D1 league but they were nonetheless paid players. They then became the McMahons which became the Raiders again and then early in the 50-51 season (November) they were sponsored by Walter Zenthoefer. This team had a solid rivalry with Simpkins as the two dominant St.L teams. In 1949-50 the McMahons competed with the Simpkins, Dohles, and Breheny's. In 1950-51 the Zenthoefers wore maroon and competed along side the Simpkins, Kutis, and Mike Breheny's. Libro0 (talk) 02:30, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
