by Sports History Network
Each episode of “When Football Was Football” will take the listener back to the very early days of the National Football League. Your host, Joe Ziemba, will share a forgotten or lost story from one of the NFL’s two oldest teams: The Bears and the Cardinals. Team championships, individual exploits, or long-buried items of interest from the earliest years of the NFL will be dusted off and resurrected for the listener. Not for the football faint-of-heart since these programs will document when the struggling Bears nearly went out of business or when Cardinals’ players earned $15 a game and were proud of it! It’s NFL history—with a twist!

In other words, once the game or experience is over, we’re likely never to hear about these occurrences again. </p><p>As the months and years pass, the information becomes buried, if not simply forgotten. And many of these brief situations that were once in the spotlight soon completely fade, and probably deserve that fate!</p><p>Read the entire episode blog post and check out some other cool info regarding this <a href="https://sportshistorynetwork.com/football/nfl/forgotten-chicago-cardinals-stories" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">episode here</a>.</p><p><strong><u>WHEN FOOTBALL WAS FOOTBALL BACKGROUND</u></strong></p><p>Each episode takes the listener back to the very early days of the National Football League.
