The 1924 Kansas City Blues Football Team

Cool video of how the league morphed through time.

There were some amusing names.

The Tonawanda Kardex in 1921 was the shortest franchise team ever, playing only 1 game.

1920s NFL is one of my favorite periods of sports history.

It is fascinating how the league survived. PFRA has dozens of excellent articles.

Are any of the 1924 Blues available to play Sunday?

I had no clue there was that amount of changes in location and names over the years. Makes sense though...new league.

Maybe in spirit.

Blew me away that KC had a FB team that early.

It'd be cool to have jerseys of all of the teams, even though it appears that a bunch of them were pretty generic. I don't know why the NFL doesn't sell them, because I'd buy some.

I went to the Hall of Fame several years ago, and I bought a t-shirt that celebrates the Canton Bulldogs as NFL champions. I really like that t-shirt, though no one has ever commented on it. I figure 90 percent of people or more think it's some fictional thing.

Does anyone else think Jim Thorpe is like...the hottest male athlete ever?

That was great!

Some of those old time running backs were huge.
