Report

An attempt at a Pro Football League (American Football) was made in 1917 by a Detroit representative (unnamed but possibly the Wolverines) that approached the owners of Major League Baseball teams such as Charles Comiskey (Chicago) and Frank Nevin.

Comiskey was interested in the idea, if it could be shown there was money in the College Game. At the time Baseball was still America’s Favorite Sport, with two Pro Leagues (National League and American League) and Football was still only big the Colleges.

The teams, based in Baseball Cities, and owned by Baseball Team Owners, would play in Major League Baseball Parks such as the Polo Grounds in New York, Navin Field, Forbes Field and Comiskey Park in Chicago, at the end of the Baseball season in October when the Stadiums were empty.

The League never happened in the end, the Philadelphia Inquirer called it unworkable, perhaps remembering the previous attempt in 1902, and the brief World Series of Football in 1902-1903. The Los Angeles Times also discussed the possibilty, although they were the only newspapers to do more than just reprint the original wire.

The League failed to get off the ground because of a number of factors: World War I, the cold weather in November and December putting fans off, and College Football still being by far the more popular version of the game than Pro Football.

In 1920, however, Pro Football would arrive in the form of the American Professional Football association, which in 1922 changed its name to the National Football League and by 1933 had become established as a Major League to rival the National League and American League in Baseball.

Report#

The 2020 American 7s Football League season, a no-pads full-tackle version of American Football, was played as a four-team four-week tournament in Yogi Berra Stadium in Montclair, New Jersey and televised by ELEVEN sports and For the Fans (FTF) Network, with additional broadcasting by Facebook Watch and Twitch.

Describing itself as the UFC of Football, the hard-hitting no-nonsense brand of Football culminated in the Back in Motion Championship Game (sponsored by Salus) in John Vianney High School Stadium with New Jersey Paterson University winning 49-7 against New Jersey Hawks. The season was late starting and shortened to four weeks with only four teams due to the COVID-19 Coronavirus Pandemic.

Report

The NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (originally Division 1AA) was introduced into American College Football in 1978, as the bigger Colleges (NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision) had become too competitive for the FCS Colleges. It is second-rank College Football, and third after NFL and NCAA FBS

There has been a number of dynasties, most notably North Dakota State which won the FCS Championship eight times in nine years from 2011 to 2019. Other dynasties have included Georgia Southern (six wins from eight championship appearances 1985 to 1990 and 1998 to 2000), Youngstown State (four wins from six appearances 1991 to 1999), and Appalachian State (three Championships in a row 2005 to 2007).
