    A. I don't know who won for what year, but I'm pretty sure Buffalo won in '64 or '65, and the Chargers won one or two during that span...

    So we have the Browns winning all four AAFC titles, and the San Diego Chargers winning the '63 AFL Championship, and the Buffalo Bills winning the '64 and '65 AFL Championships (while playing at the Buffalo War Memorial Stadium, known to many as the home of the New York Knights in the movie 'The Natural'.)

  • I'm pretty sure the Houston Oilers won the title in one or both of the first two seasons of the AFL?

    A stretch I guess with presidents and football players and others but John Garfield was one of the classic WWII actors of his generation.

    I've seen almost all of his movies on TCM.....the greatest era of moviemaking in Hollywood's golden era.

    Reason for what?   Doing trivia?  Shits and giggles/entertainment.    Asking to match  NFL figures with Presidents?  When I try to come up with something every day, sometimes I have to get creative with the topics...and come up with some quirky, indiosyncratic questions .

    Why post the filmography of John Garfield?  Just because he is the only other (real) person I think any of us have ever heard of with that last name.  Unless you can think of someone else.   And, like I said,  I don't think I have ever heard of anyone else named Taft...that was not associated with the political Taft family.   

    The one name that I would have figured that no one else ever had would have been Roosevelt.  Clearly likely a rare name among the general populace, but since we have had 2 Presidents by that name, it does not seem terribly unusual...though it probably is.  There WAS one  NFL guy by that name though......Naman Roosevelt,  who  I do know  was African-American, and not of Dutch descent  (Roosevelt being Dutch....translation:  Rose Field).  His family  probably somehow adopted the name after being freed slaves as did so many who adopted the names  Washington, Jefferson, Jackson....after former Presidents.

    Last time I looked, none of those are or ever were football teams. 

    But, here we go:    There is one more  AFL champion to be named,   plus all the NFL champions from the 1920s.    Further hint:   there are  8  teams to be name here.   Four are defunct....but 4 are still going. 

  • Pretty Pathetic Effort boys:

    A.  Name each of the AFL  Pre-Super Bowl Champions   1960-1965.

    B. Name each of the AAFC Champions  1946-1949

    C. Name each of the NFL Champions....from 1920-1929!    Hint here:  Of the 10 Champions from that decade,  6 of them are now defunct. 

    Edit:  Clarifying....4 teams are defunct, but the account for 6 titles. 

    Answers:

    AFL   1960 and '61:  Houston Oilers      1962:   Dallas Texans   nka Kansas City Chiefs   1963 San Diego Chargers   1964 and '65  Buffalo Bills

    (interesting that now, only the Bills are in the same location as when they won their AFL title)

    AAFC   The Cleveland Browns.....all years

    NFL from 1920-1929:    

    1920 Akron Pros

    1921 Chicago Staleys (Bears)

    1922 and 1923  Canton Bulldogs

    1924  Cleveland Bulldogs

    1925 Chicago Cardinals

    1926 Frankford (Philadelphia) Yellow Jackets

    1927 New York Giants

    1928 Providence Steamroler

    1929 Green Bay Packers.
