Modern era Football Leagues…It’s hard to Believe that the NFL began in 1920!
There have been SO many other PRO & SEMI-PRO teams since then that you can hardly even Count!
But, how did the “other” leagues turn out! (Only the Major Ones)
- American Football League: 1960–1970 -quality competition- Merged with the NFL in 1970!
- World Football League: 1974/75; 1991/92; 1995-2007; 2008-2010. - Gone.
- United Football League: 2009-2012. - Gone.
- Stars Football League: 2011-2013. - Gone.
- The Spring League: 2017-2021. - Gone.
- Alliance of American Football: 2019 - Gone.
- XFL: 2001/ 2020-2024…….
-
United States Football League: 1983-1985 / 2022-2024….
The reason that these “OTHER” Leagues will never MAKE IT is because their games are rarely entertaining… There are NEVER any “fans” in the stadiums…(Their QB’s basically get KILLED every game - because the O-Lines SUCK)! — And If ANY player in their league was GOOD enough- they would Flip to the NFL “IN A SECOND” - if given the opportunity!!!!!
And there is No interest & No $$ MONEY in it!!!!!!
