Are You Ready for Some Football!!!

September 17,

American Professional Football Association is Established!

On September 17, 1920, the AP FA was established in Canton, Oh. Two years later it would become the National Football League, or the NFL! The original teams, which came from the Ohio and New York Leagues, for the 1920 season were:

Akron Pros

Decatur Staleys

Buffalo All-Americans 

Chicago Cardinals 

Rock Island Independents

Dayton Triangles

Rochester Jeffersons

Canton Bulldogs

Detroit Heralds

Cleveland Tigers

Chicago Tigers

Hammond Pros

Columbus Panhandles

Muncie Flyers

In 1950, the NFL acquired the All-American Football Conference. The NFL now has 32 teams.

Playoffs didn't begin until the 1932 season, and the the first Super Bowl would happen on January 15, 1967. The rest is history!

Today lift your glasses for your favorite team, for your favorite player, for your fantasy football league, or perhaps quiet Sundays with a husband out of the house!

Cheers!
