	Remember the AFL
		The American Football League was the only league in North American pro sports ever to have merged with another major league and have all its teams continue to exist.
		The American Football League took advantage of the burgeoning popularity of football by locating teams in major cities that lacked NFL franchises, and by using the growing power of televised football games (bolstered with the help of major network contracts, first with ABC and later with NBC).
		Further, the league championships were evenly divided: five were won by Western Division teams, five by the Eastern Division; and of the original eight teams, all but two (Denver and Boston) won at least one AFL title, and only one did not make the playoffs at some time during the league's ten-year existence.

		Predating the formation of professional gridiron football and basketball leagues by many years, the ALPF presented a prime opportunity for the sport to become firmly enmeshed in the American sports landscape.
		In many ways, the United States’ first professional league presented a blueprint for all those that would follow--absentee ownership with interests other than the development of the sport, domination by foreign players, in-fighting within the soccer community, outside factors detrimental to the sport’s development, and lack of fan interest.
		For starters, the public was often teased with stories of various major league baseball players participating in the league; from the beginning, the owners were not confident that the public would support soccer unless they could view their favorite baseball players in the process.
