Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) North division. It is the third-oldest franchise in the NFL, dating back to 1919, and is the only non-profit, community-owned major league professional sports team based in the United States. Home games have been played at Lambeau Field since 1957.
The Packers are the last of the “small town teams” which were common in the NFL during the league’s early days of 1925 and 1950. Founded in 1919 by Earl “Curly” Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun, the franchise traces its lineage to other semi-professional teams in Green Bay dating back to 1896. Between 1920 and 1953, the Packers competed against other semi-pro clubs from around Wisconsin and Upper Michigan, before joining the NFL in 1921.
Today, the Green Bay Packers are one of the most successful teams in the NFL. They have won 13 league championships (more than any other team in NFL history), including nine NFL Championships prior to Super Bowl IV and four Super Bowls (I, II, XXXI, XLV). The Packers have long enjoyed a strong rivalry with their historic NFC North foe, the Chicago Bears.
Detroit Lions
The Detroit Lions are a professional American football team based in Allen Park, Michigan. They are members of the North Division of the National Football League (NFL), and play their home games at Ford Field in Downtown Detroit. Originally based in Portsmouth, Ohio and called the Portsmouth Spartans, the team began play in 1929 as an independent professional team. For the 1930 season, the Spartans formally joined the NFL as the other area independent teams that had already been doing business for several years; it took them two more years to finish building their new stadium. Despite success within those two years (including two NFL championships), they could not survive without a regular income stream.
Chicago Bears
The Chicago Bears are a professional American football team based in Chicago, Illinois. They are members of the National Football League (NFL) as a part of the NFC North division. The Bears compete in the NFL as a club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) North division. They were a charter member of the Decatur Staleys, founded in 1919 by George Halas and Edward “Dutch” Sternaman. The team moved to Chicago in 1921, where they were renamed the Chicago Staleys and took on their current form as the Bears in 1922.
