Art Folz Arthur F . Folz ( some sources refer to him as Art Foltz ) was a professional football player who played with the Chicago Cardinals of the National Football League from 1923 until 1925 . He is best known for a role he played in a scandal that involved Folz hiring a group of high school football players from his alam mater , Chicago ' s Engelwood High School , to play for the Milwaukee Badgers , against the Cardinals . During the recruitment , Folz reportedly told the high schoolers that the game was a " practice game " and would in no part affect their amateur status . The plan would ensure an inferior opponent for Chicago . The game was then used to help prop up their win - loss percentage and as a chance of wrestling away the 1925 NFL Championship away from the first place Pottsville Maroons . For his involvement , Folz was barred from playing football in the NFL for life by NFL President Joseph Carr . However in 1926 , Folz ' s lifetime ban was lifted , probably to prevent him from going the first American Football League , however he chose not to return to pro football . The scandal also played a role in the 1925 NFL Championship controversy .
New York Yankees ( 1936 AFL ) The New York Yankees of the second American Football League was the second professional American football team competing under that name . It is unrelated to the Yankees of the first AFL ( and the National Football League ) , the Yankees of the third AFL , the Yankees of the American Association ( then also called the American Football League ) and the ( later ) Yankees of the All America Football Conference . The Yankees played their home games in Yankee Stadium and Triborough Stadium in New York , New York . Jack McBride was the team ’ s head coach throughout its existence ; Yankees ' president James Bush served as president of the second American Football League in 1936 . Formed by signing National Football League players , primarily New York Giant s , the 1936 Yankees ( including back Elmer Strong and tackle Jess Quatse ) battled the Boston Shamrocks and the Cleveland Rams for the league title ( which Boston won ) . New York Giants - turned - Yankees also included end Les Borden and back Stu Clancy . The 1937 edition of the Yankees was never truly in the running as league newcomers Los Angeles Bulldogs were the only AFL team with a winning record as Los Angeles dominated the league with an unbeaten , untied 8 - 0 - 0 record ( the Yankees finished in third place for the second straight year , this time with 2 - 3 - 1 ) . While there was no " official " all - AFL team declared for the 1936 season , guard Alex Drobnitch was the sole Yankee to be named to the All - League team in 1937 . Other Yankees stars include Charlie Segal , Al Rose , and Irv " King Kong " Klein . The complete domination of the AFL by the Bulldogs decimated attendance in Yankee Stadium as LA played the second half of its season on the American West Coast ( while the Yankees averaged roughly 14 , 000 in attendance in 1936 , the number was cut to about 5000 in 1937 ) . With all the AFL clubs ( except Los Angeles ) deeply in the red , the second American Football League – and the Yankees – closed up shop at the end of the 1937 season . Link to AFL III Yankees ? Some sources indicate the Yankees of the third American Football League ( 1940 ) a continuation of the 1936 - 1937 Yankees , citing a common head coach ( Jack McBride ) and the continuing existences of two other AFL II teams , the Cincinnati Bengals ( which also competed in the third AFL ) and the Los Angeles Bulldogs ( which became a founding member of the Pacific Coast Professional Football League in 1940 – after competing with Cincinnati in the American Professional Football League , which ironically called itself the American Football League in 1938 ) . While circumstantial evidence hints at the Yankees having a similar continuation , there is no record of any Yankees games played in 1938 and 1939 , and the 1940 Yankees team had different ownership / management from its 1937 namesakes , aside from their common head coach .

American Football League ( 1944 ) The Northwest War Industries League , later renamed the American Football League , was a professional football league based on the West Coast of the United States that played for two nonconsecutive seasons during World War II . The Northwest Industries league began play in 1942 , with the Seattle Bombers , Portland Rockets , and teams in Spokane , Washington and Vancouver , Washington . Information on this league has mostly been lost to time , as the records of this league are incomplete . What is known is that only Seattle played in 1943 , and that plans to append to the Pacific Coast Professional Football League as a semiautonomous Northern Division fell through . In 1944 , Portland returned to play . Meanwhile , the league received a significant overhaul : the Pacific Coast Professional Football League revoked the membership of the Los Angeles Mustangs to protest owner Bill Freelove ’ s raiding of Jerry Corcoran ’ s Los Angeles Bulldogs roster . Freelove responded by reorganizing the old Northwest Industries league into a " new " league , the American Football League ( with famous Hollywood lawyer Jerry Giesler as president ) . In 1944 , an unprecedented five Los Angeles area teams were competing in either of the rival leagues . Both leagues had undefeated champions ( the PCPFL Bombers had won their third consecutive title ) . AFL members San Diego Gunners , Los Angeles Wildcats ( no relation to the 1926 AFL team ) , and Oakland Hornets folded before the end of the season . All three San Francisco Clippers losses were to the Rangers . On December 21 , 1944 , PCPFL league president J . Rufus Klawans announced a merger between the two leagues . Immediately afterward , the AFL champion Hollywood Rangers and PCPFL champion San Diego Bombers scheduled two games , one at each team ’ s home , to decide the “ unified ” Pacific Coast championship . Hollywood swept San Diego , winning 42 - 7 and 21 - 10 , for the bragging rights . However , what was trumpeted as a merger was in fact not much of a merger at all . Seattle and Portland declined to play in the new league . The PCPFL also demanded that the Rangers merge with the PCPFL ' s Hollywood Bears , something the Rangers were unwilling to do since the Bears hadn ' t even played football in two years . Nonetheless , the Bears ended up restocking themselves mostly on the Rangers ' players . One major point of contention between the two leagues went unaddressed : even though the leagues had agreed on a merger , they again refused entry to the Los Angeles Mustangs . In the end , of the five teams in the AFL at the end of the season , only one team ever played in the PCPFL , the San Francisco Clippers . The Rangers and Mustangs , having their league ( that they organized ) ripped out from under them , continued play as independents for 1945 and quietly folded .
