NFL History
NFL was started in Canton,ohio on September 17, 1920 by a group
of enterprising men. Initially NFL was known as American
Professional Football Association (AFPA). American Professional
Football Association later got rechristened as National Football
League (NFL) in 1922 and became America's favorite sport. Jim
Thorpe who was a professional Football player was the first
president of NFL and helped add credibility and pouplarity for
the sport.
Actually Pro Football began in 1892 at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
when former Yale star William "Pudge" Heffelfinger was paid a
notable sum of $500 to play in a single game for the Allegheny
Athletic Association on November 12 1892. Then Pro Football was
played mostly in the small towns of Pennsylvania and was mostly
a Pennsylvanian sport before it started becoming popular in the
eastern and Midwestern states like Ohio.
Initial Pro Football days faced several problems including lack
of rules, keeping the players in order and professional
recognition. But with the formation of APFA all the problems
started to wade away. Actually there were 11 franchises were
presented at the first APFA meeting. They were
Canton Bulldogs Decatur Staleys Chicago
Cardinals Akron Pros
Cleveland Indians Dayton Triangles Massillon Tigers Hammond Pros
Muncie Flyers Rock Island Independents Rochester Jeffersons
On September 26, 1920, the first game featuring a team from the
APFA was played at Douglas Park in Rock Island, Illinois. The
Independents were victorious as they rolled to a 48-0 win over
the St. Paul Ideals. One week later, two league teams battled
head-to-head for the fist time. The Dayton Triangles beat
Columbus Panhandles, 14-0 in Triangle Park. The Akron Pros, with
an 8-0-3 regular season record, were crowned the league's first
champion.
Only two of the original franchises of APFA still exist today.
Decatur Staleys moved to Chicago and their franchise name was
changed to the current Chicago Bears. Chicago Cardinals moved
their home to Arizona and they are known as Arizona Cardinals.
