The Chicago Boosters was founded in 1920 as an independent professional football team, starting the season with a tie against the Green Bay Packers. Their second game's score is unknown. Their third game was a 0–0 tie against the Chicago Amos A.A.. The Boosters most of their games at home or at a neutral site near or in Chicago. They ended up playing 15 games in 1920. Their record was 7-1-6 (excluding their second game which had an unknown score). Their only game against an APFA opponent was a 27–0 win over the Hammond Pros. They used three different home stadiums in 1920; they played in Harrison Tech Field, DePaul Field, and Logan Square Park. The Boosters opened the 1921 season with a 13–0 loss against the Green Bay Packers. They then had a 3–0 win over the Moline Indians. They started 1921 playing the Green Bay Packers again meaning the first game the Packers played in the APFA (later to be the NFL) was against the Boosters, the Packers won 13-0. They finished the 1921 season with a 4-2-3 record. Losing their final ever game to the Chicago Opal A.A.. The 1921 season was their last season.
Pro Football Historian (PFH) is a blog page written by Flint Given. Pro Football Historian or PFH is a page to inform people on prior NFL events that people might not know about. Learning about teams from the 1920s or even the first few NFL World Championships in the 1930s fascinates me. It's these kinds of events that I want to discuss in this blog. Hopefully you are interested and will continue to check up on my blogs.
