McKeesport Olympics The McKeesport Olympics were a professional football team from McKeesport , Pennsylvania from 1896 until around 1940 . The Olympics were considered one of the top football teams in Pennsylvania from 1910 until 1919 . The Olympics played against many of the teams that would go on to form the National Football League . These teams included the Buffalo All - Americans , Rochester Jeffersons and the Canton Bulldogs . The primary reason the Olympics never joined the NFL during the early era was the state of Pennsylvania ' s blue laws which prevented football from being played on Sunday ; as a result , no Pennsylvania team joined the NFL ( which played most of its games on Sundays ) until 1924 , though because most teams were available to play on Saturdays , they were able to schedule exhibition games against NFL teams fairly easily . Why the Olympics never joined after that was unclear . The team also played against a current NFL team , the Pittsburgh Pirates ( renamed the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1940 ) twice . The first game between the two clubs was held on October 31 , 1938 . The Pirates , led by Byron White , would go on to win that game 21 - 6 . However almost a year later , on October 4 , 1939 in McKeesport , while the Pirates would go on to win that game too , the semi - pro Olympics held them to a much closer score , 9 - 6 . The Olympics also played against several strong clubs that never made it into the NFL . These teams included the Youngstown Patricians and the Shelby Blues . However the Olympics main rivals were the Pitcairn Quakers , another strong team from the Pittsburgh - area . In 1919 the Olympics had won the first game of the two - game series , 3 - 0 and had employed the entire Cleveland Indians team just for that game . However Pitcairn would win the second game due to a last minute field goal by Paul Rupp .
