Alright, so today I was digging around the internet, trying to find some old-school football info. I’m a big fan of the history of the game, you know? And I stumbled upon this name – Cowboy Bill Watts. I knew him more as a wrestler, but the search results kept mentioning him playing football for the Indianapolis Warriors. This was news to me!
So, I started by just Googling “Cowboy Bill Watts Indianapolis Warriors.” It’s pretty basic, I know, but sometimes the simplest approach works best. The results were a bit mixed, some wrestling stuff, some football stuff, and a whole lot of nothing specific.
Then I refined my search a bit. I added “football” to the search terms, trying to filter out some of the wrestling noise. This helped a little, but I still wasn’t getting a clear picture.
Next, I decided to dig into some online football databases. I checked a couple of the big sports history sites, looking for player rosters and stats from that era. It was a bit of a long shot, I’ll admit, but I figured it was worth a try. This turned out to be a bit of a dead end, no detailed records of the team or Bill.
I even tried looking for old newspaper archives online. I figured maybe there’d be some local Indianapolis news coverage from back then. That was a real rabbit hole! I spent a good chunk of time sifting through digitized pages, but honestly, I didn’t find much that was helpful. It just confirmed that the Indianapolis Warriors might be less documented.
What I did was gather some information from various search engine results and put them together. This is the part where a bit of guesswork comes in, piecing together fragments of info. It’s not ideal, but it’s sometimes the only way to get close to the truth with these obscure historical topics.
So, after all that digging, I realized this task is not easy. The resources are limited. But at least I tried my best to figure it out!
