Well that was the Bears/Staleys argument and they are considered the 1921 AFPA Champions.

Buffalo should have not agreed to the game as they played the Akron Pros on December 3rd. Imagine a football team playing games on back to back days!!!!

Like I said doing these pages I am stunned the NFL ever survived those early years it was a joke.

I love the early days of the sport, when teams competed against other recreational groups, not just other college or pro teams. I believe Nebraska's first game was against Omaha YMCA.

To honor the sport's great legacy (and relive his teen years!), Bill Snyder now schedules KState for at least ONE game a year against the Manhattan School for the Deaf or VFW Hall #219.

True enough. But I'm pretty sure they didn't need to sneak the Texans out of Dallas in the middle of the night...

Because they were kicked out halfway through the season! I remember NFL Films doing a story on the Dallas Texans/Baltimore Colts.

I kinda wish the Canton Bulldogs hadn't been forced to fold. Imagine a Canton/Green Bay rivalry!

EDIT - why do I keep bumping a thread to the next page? What an odd coincidence...

Let's keep this thread dedicated to more broad olde tyme NFL discussion without pimping any websites.
