National Football League (NFL)
The National Football League (NFL) was founded in 1920 by the American Professional Football Association (APFA). It started with ten teams from four states that existed in some form as participants of regional leagues in their respective territories. The NFL was the first professional football league to establish a nationwide presence successfully, after several decades of failed attempts. Only two of the founding members, the Decatur Staleys which is now the Chicago Bears, and the Chicago Cardinals which is now the Arizona Cardinals, are still in the league. Most importantly the Green Bay Acme Packers, founded in 1919 is now the oldest League franchise with continuous operation in the same location.NFL took on its current name in 1922.
membership for the League gradually stabilized throughout the 1920s and 1930s as NFL adopted progressively more formal organization and the first official championship game was held in 1933. The League stopped signing black players in 1927 but reintegrated in 1946 following World War II. Notably, many other changes followed after the war. The office of league President evolved into the more powerful Commissioner post, mirroring a similar move in Major League Baseball.
Moreover, FNL teams became more financially viable, the last team folding in 1952 and the league absorbing teams from the briefly more successful All-America Football Conference in 1950. Among them, only the San Francisco 49ers and the Cleveland Browns survive to the present day. When that season’s NFL championship game became known as “the most exciting game ever played” by 1958, the League was on its way to becoming one of the most popular sports leagues in the United States.
