Can we vote for a realignment? Im a Cowboys fan and it sucks having rivals with teams on the east coast that you never run into. If we played New Orleans and Texans twice a year that would be a great rivalry. We actually have family ties and competitive feelings towards our neighbors already. Maybe you could also schedule at least one game against a long time rival like the Redskins every year. So many teams have Rivalries with teams that are no where near them. Like Shouldn't the 3 Cali teams be in the same division? Florida also. forget the stupid NFC AFC none of us where alive to even give a damn about. Just divide the divisions by actual area. But still schedule old rivals at least once a year. Win win. Just have a West, East, South and MidWest division. Top 4 teams in each region go to playoffs. Imagine if the different regions actually squared off in the semi's !!! that would be lit. King of the East vs King of the West, or Midwest Champs vs Southern champs. Everybody would have a region to root for instead of two random teams that the other 30 team fans don't give a damn about. Now It would have some regional pride and history behind it. I know closed mined people will say "football is perfect dont change it". Glad they didnt think like that when they changed the game a million times in the last 100 years or we would have a shitty sport. What a dream to actually meet people you have rivalries with... maybe one day.

MLB was originally the most popular sport in America, with its history stemming from the Civil War. So a new sport trying to grow in popularity will do their best to grapple onto another popular sport. It was clearly successful.

Thanks for this informative video. I'm in the UK and only recently have I gained an interest for the sport. I thought that learning about the history of the NFL would help me in choosing which team to support. I've settled with the Falcons as I like the animal, and was made when my dad was born, so it will be easy to remember when they started.
They dominated in the 50's racking up 3 championships to add to their first one in 1935. Their bad luck has really only been since right before the superbowl era.
Seahawks don't exist, its a reference to Eagles, Osprey and Seagulls that fly around the Puget Sound and the Pacific NW. Miami Seahawks from the AAFC in '46 were the first to have the name. They moved to Baltimore, and came into the NATIONAL-AMERICAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE (as it was known for a few offseason weeks after the ALL AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE league's MERGER in late 1949 into early '50, only to change back to the NFL in the late spring/early summer of '50) before that 1950 NFL season began. That Colts team had green and silver as their AAFC colors, the same as in Miami in '46. They folded wearing that color. Colts brought in blue and white three years later. Remember the quiz in DINER? The guy asked his fiancee to pass a Colts trivia test? If she failed they would not marry. And one question was the color of the 1950 NFL COLTS= GREEN, SILVER AND WHITE..
@@thatredsunburst it was an Osprey if it looked like an Eagle or Hawk, or it was a Hawk, not a SEAhawk, wasn't a Seagull. But, look it up, there is NO SUCH BIRD CALLED SEAHAWK.Now, is it a hawk that lives there and the city happens to be by the sea? Just as there is no Lakehawk, there is no Seahawk, live bird, or not. Don't believe me, look it up.
It's hard to process this history as it is so long, but I got this, and it's very interesting to learn about the founders, the culture, and people who made this sport what it is today. This video is amazing.
Can we give a shoutout to the OG'S who put in serious commitment just to meet somewhere to play? These guys built and kept this sport alive and laid the foundation for the absolutely amazing test of physical abilities we all enjoy and love today.
Al Davis copied the Los Angeles Chargers 1960 original shield logo. Al Davis was part of the Los Angeles Chargers coaching staff 1960 birth season through 1962. Al Davis then left the Chargers coaching staff in 1962 to become the manager of the Oakland Raiders in 1963. Al Davis obviously copied the the 1960 L.A.Chargers original shield logo and added it to the Oakland Raiders pirate logo in 1963 because coincidentally the original 1960-1962 Oakland born Raiders pirate team logo didn’t have the shield logo in their original birth year of 1960-1962 until Al Davis joined the Oakland Raiders in 1963 then added the shield logo to the pirate logo. Raiders copy cat shield logo but the true Original L.A.born Shield logo is the Original Los Angeles Chargers battle horse shield logo. Da Da Da Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈 Let’s Go Los Angeles Chargers! The true original 1960 L.A. born team now back playing in the original birth city L.A. Da Da Da Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈…..
The Chargers name and logo was created and originated in Los Angeles with a USC L.A.Memorial Coliseum historical connection and Tommy Walker aka”Tommy Trojan”and then owner Barron Hilton. The Chargers name originated from the USC football games and Tommy Walker aka (Tommy Trojan) famous historical Charge chant he created “Da Dah Dah Da“ Charge! “Da Dah Dah Da Trojans Warriors Charge! Tommy Walker then musician /team kicker helped inspire then owner Barron Hilton “R.I.P.” to name the Chargers football team from the famous Charge chant he created as a USC musician band member /team kicker. When Barron Hilton attended the USC football games the previous years as a football fan at the L.A.Coliseum he would hear the Tommy Walker Charge chant. When Tommy Walker would run out to the football field to attempt the extra point kicks as the team kicker the USC team music band would play Tommy’s Charge chant he created as the team musician and the football fans that attended the games would yell out his Charge chant “Da Dah Dah Dah Da” Charge! “Da Dah Dah Da “Trojan Warriors Charge! to motivate him to score the extra point kicks. So that’s where Barron Hilton got inspired and got the idea to name the Los Angeles Chargers football team. The proof is in the Chargers 1960 original shield logo with the horse charging into battle. The Charger is a horse charging into battle. very similar to the USC Trojan Warrior with shield and sword and horse mascot charging on to the field to battle. Hence the horse in the Chargers 1960 original shield logo. The lightning bolt idea came from Barron Hilton liking the Air Force College football team lightning bolt logo as a College football fan. Till this day that famous Charge chant is heard at the game’s and through out many other sporting game events. The Los Angeles Chargers r the true original L.A. born team now back playing in the original birthplace and not too many team’s can claim that fact. Rams were born in Cleveland 1936 and Raiders were born in Oakland 1960 And that’s a fact these other teams can’t ever claim. And also the Chargers r the true Southern California NFL team because they have never left Southern California unlike the Cleveland/ST.Louis Rams and the Oakland/Las Vegas Nevada Raiders. Let’s Go Los Angeles Chargers The true original L.A. born team now back playing in the original birthplace L.A. Da Da Dah Dah Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈 Born in L.A. in 1960 and played their first season ever in Chargers history at the L.A.memorial Coliseum finishing the season with a 10-4 record. Da Da Dah Dah Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈..
One interesting thing about the Vikings. Ole Haugsrud was one of the original owners. His high school teams were called the Vikings with colors purple and white. The question is how much did he influence the name and team colors?
yeah not many big cities in that area between them and denver, but it just looks a bit silly with those large stretches of land without a team at all, while the metro atlantic is just packed with teams
@@MoHimdi I know. It's basically why the league started in the midwest and nyc sort of area, but just glancing at the map, it looks a bit odd. like Seattle, Denver, and KC are basically by themselves.
Imagine a game (Xbox, etc) where you start with a franchise from the beginning in the 1920’s and can play to modern times and beyond. How awesome would that be?

Imagine the research needed to duplicate playbooks from NFL / AFL history, not to mention getting the bulk of the players correct. Someone please make it!!!

I got a really big kick out of seeing the Portsmouth Spartans on the map. My mother grew up in Portsmouth, and my grandfather lived there all his life. He occasionally mentioned that Portsmouth had a professional football team when the NFL was young, but never mentioned that they moved to Detroit and became the Lions. My mother graduated from Portsmouth High School, and the name of their sports teams was, and is, the Spartans.

Just some information you kind of missed. The Chiefs were quickly named after Harold Roe (not Roy) Bartle, who was an Honorary chief in the north Arapahoe tribe. His nickname was indeed “the Chief” and when the Texans came to Kansas City Lamar Hunt and Bartle were quoted as saying “there is no better name than Chiefs.”
If the Redskins is an offensive name, than so is the Chiefs. Every small town in America worth it's salt has a dude who is 16% percent Slapahoe Injun, and his nickname is "Chief."
@@kyngair2650 I think the main problem was having an actual person in the logo of a “redskin”. If the logo was more symbolic, like the Chiefs having a tribal arrowhead, think it would last a couple more years at worst.

@@Vaedik43 Newspapers nicknamed Card-Pitt "The Car-Pitts/Carpets" because teams were walking all over them. They finished 0-10 and for every point they scored, they gave up 3.

as someone from wisconsin, the first ten minutes of this video is so interesting! crazy how green bay managed to stick around when there were much more populas areas that had potential teams popping up
Or teams joining others like Steelers we joined Cardinals and the Eagles you wonder why both of them have been in the superbowl years later . Well eagles won one and Have been too two wild
I bought season tickets. I missed the first game because I was involved in a blimp crash. After I recovered 2 days later, I found out the team folded. I never did get my money back.
In addition to breeding horses here in Maryland, there’s also a little race that’s run every year called the Preakness. Pretty important horse race. Might have been part of choosing the Baltimore Colts name too, perhaps.
I rather hear this as history about football than history in class. 25 years old and I know nothing about their deep history till now. Very enjoyable video

As an american and a football fan, this was very interesting. Thanks for making this video and sharing the info!
“They chose a Seahawk because it wasn’t being used.”
SEAHAWKS: “it’s free real estate”🤫
Old meme
Seahawks don't exist, its a reference to Eagles, Osprey and Seagulls that fly around the Puget Sound and the Pacific NW.
Miami Seahawks from the AAFC in '46 were the first to have the name. They moved to Baltimore, and came into the NATIONAL-AMERICAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE (as it was known for a few offseason weeks after the ALL AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE league's MERGER in late 1949 into early '50, only to change back to the NFL in the late spring/early summer of '50) before that 1950 NFL season began.
That Colts team had green and silver as their AAFC colors, the same as in Miami in '46. They folded wearing that color. Colts brought in blue and white three years later. Remember the quiz in DINER? The guy asked his fiancee to pass a Colts trivia test? If she failed they would not marry. And one question was the color of the 1950 NFL COLTS= GREEN, SILVER AND WHITE..
@@robertsprouse9282 yes they do the seahawks used to have an actual Seahawk for there run out
@@thatredsunburst it was an Osprey if it looked like an Eagle or Hawk, or it was a Hawk, not a SEAhawk, wasn't a Seagull.
But, look it up, there is NO SUCH BIRD CALLED SEAHAWK.Now, is it a hawk that lives there and the city happens to be by the sea?
Just as there is no Lakehawk, there is no Seahawk, live bird, or not.
Don't believe me, look it up.
And now the NFL has a team literally named the Football Team.
I call them Washington FT, just because it sounds more dignified. Like how some Soccer teams are called Barcelona FC
Christian Kallio Washington FC sounds better
And I love them
They should do a another name the team contest
Washington warriors?Washington braves,still using Indians.
Holy smokes it blows my mind that they televised the NFL in 1939
Vin Scully's debut
There was about 1,000 TVs in the whole world back then
membersonlydave I read your comment at the same time when the year popped up. Thought it was weirdly funny
Watched that and the Akron v. Louisville game at the same time on Black and White Zone
I like how the guy says the fans probably didn't notice the tv cameras. Shows the camera that the size of a Buick.
It's hard to process this history as it is so long, but I got this, and it's very interesting to learn about the founders, the culture, and people who made this sport what it is today. This video is amazing.
For a South African like myself learning the game, this is a brilliant video to introduce the history and traditions of each team. Very well made!
@Joe L tbh they might but some stupid gonna cost them
Which team do you think you'll be a fan of?

The 1944 Card-Pitt team was called the "carpets" because everybody walked all over them. They went 0-10 that season.
this is true- they sucked
Because real American men that year weren't playing football...

Make that the Washington Commanders. They got their name from George Washington's military career.
@@joshuagamboaii741 Only gays and jews call them anything but the Redskins.
Can we give a shoutout to the OG'S who put in serious commitment just to meet somewhere to play? These guys built and kept this sport alive and laid the foundation for the absolutely amazing test of physical abilities we all enjoy and love today.
Shoutout to the persons who won the name the team contest, yall the mvp for life
It would be so cool to say, “yah I’m the reason for their name”
Al Davis copied the Los Angeles Chargers 1960 original shield logo.
Al Davis was part of the Los Angeles Chargers coaching staff 1960 birth season through 1962.
Al Davis then left the Chargers coaching staff in 1962 to become the manager of the Oakland Raiders in 1963.
Al Davis obviously copied the the 1960 L.A.Chargers original shield logo and added it to the Oakland Raiders pirate logo in 1963 because coincidentally the original 1960-1962 Oakland born Raiders pirate team logo didn’t have the shield logo in their original birth year of 1960-1962
until Al Davis joined the Oakland Raiders in 1963 then added the shield logo to the pirate logo.
Raiders copy cat shield logo but the true Original L.A.born Shield logo is the Original Los Angeles Chargers battle horse shield logo.
Da Da Da Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈
Let’s Go Los Angeles Chargers!
The true original 1960 L.A. born team now back playing in the original birth city L.A.
Da Da Da Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈…..
The Chargers name and logo was created and originated in Los Angeles with a USC L.A.Memorial Coliseum historical connection and
Tommy Walker aka”Tommy Trojan”and then owner Barron Hilton.
The Chargers name originated from the USC football games and Tommy Walker aka (Tommy Trojan) famous historical Charge chant he created
“Da Dah Dah Da“ Charge!
“Da Dah Dah Da Trojans Warriors Charge!
Tommy Walker then musician /team kicker helped inspire then owner Barron Hilton “R.I.P.” to name the Chargers football team from the famous Charge chant he created as a USC musician band member /team kicker.
When Barron Hilton attended the USC football games the previous years as a football fan at the L.A.Coliseum he would hear the Tommy Walker Charge chant.
When Tommy Walker would run out to the football field to attempt the extra point kicks as the team kicker the USC team music band would play Tommy’s Charge chant he created as the team musician and the football fans that attended the games would yell out his Charge chant
“Da Dah Dah Dah Da” Charge!
“Da Dah Dah Da “Trojan Warriors Charge!
to motivate him to score the extra point kicks.
So that’s where Barron Hilton got inspired and got the idea to name the Los Angeles Chargers football team.
The proof is in the Chargers 1960 original shield logo with the horse charging into battle.
The Charger is a horse charging into battle.
very similar to the USC Trojan Warrior with shield and sword and horse mascot charging on to the field to battle.
Hence the horse in the Chargers 1960 original shield logo.
The lightning bolt idea came from Barron Hilton liking the Air Force College football team lightning bolt logo as a College football fan.
Till this day that famous Charge chant is heard at the game’s and through out many other sporting game events.
The Los Angeles Chargers r the true original L.A. born team now back playing in the original birthplace and not too many team’s can claim that fact.
Rams were born in Cleveland 1936 and
Raiders were born in Oakland 1960
And that’s a fact these other teams can’t ever claim.
And also the Chargers r the true Southern California NFL team because they have never left Southern California unlike
the Cleveland/ST.Louis Rams and
the Oakland/Las Vegas Nevada Raiders.
Let’s Go Los Angeles Chargers
The true original L.A. born team now back playing in the original birthplace L.A.
Da Da Dah Dah Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈
Born in L.A. in 1960 and played their first season ever in Chargers history at the L.A.memorial Coliseum finishing the season with a 10-4 record.
Da Da Dah Dah Da Charge!!! ⚡️🐴 🏈..

Imagine a game (Xbox, etc) where you start with a franchise from the beginning in the 1920’s and can play to modern times and beyond. How awesome would that be?

Just some information you kind of missed. The Chiefs were quickly named after Harold Roe (not Roy) Bartle, who was an Honorary chief in the north Arapahoe tribe. His nickname was indeed “the Chief” and when the Texans came to Kansas City Lamar Hunt and Bartle were quoted as saying “there is no better name than Chiefs.”
If the Redskins is an offensive name, than so is the Chiefs. Every small town in America worth it's salt has a dude who is 16% percent Slapahoe Injun, and his nickname is "Chief."
If people knew the history the redskins wouldn’t be “offensive”
@@kyngair2650 I think the main problem was having an actual person in the logo of a “redskin”. If the logo was more symbolic, like the Chiefs having a tribal arrowhead, think it would last a couple more years at worst.
