The history of the football tee is a fascinating exploration into a device that is often taken for granted amid the fanfare of the game. We are joined by Timothy P. Brown from FootballArchaeology.com, who elucidates the evolution and significance of this essential kicking apparatus. Delving into its origins, we discover that the term "tee" is derived from a Scottish word denoting a circle, which reflects its early usage in golf. As we traverse the timeline of the football tee, we learn about the various adaptations and regulations that have shaped its design, from the rudimentary dirt mounds of the past to the sophisticated models utilized by contemporary kickers. This episode serves as a reminder of how even the most commonplace elements of football possess a rich and intricate history deserving of our appreciation.

This episode is based on Tim's Tidbit: A History of Football Tees
