_________________
The oldest NFL team, dating back to the 19th Century!
Up through league formation in 1920, the team went by its second gen prefix, the avenue where they played -- Racine. Parochial identity proved to be a problem, compounded by the charter secretary mistakenly adding Wisconsin to the registration.
Enter the quartet of late arrivals that inaugural autumn, including Chicago Tigers. In short order, Cardinals' ownership saw the light, supplanting the Racine name with that of the metropolis.
The team uprooted to St. Louis in 1960 and moved again to Phoenix in 1988. Origin and singular league title, Chicago.
