The NFL was founded way back in 1920 following a meeting held by the ‘American Professional Football Conference’ a group whose mission in its own words was to "raise the standard of professional football in every way possible, to eliminate bidding for players between rival clubs and to secure cooperation in the formation of schedules".
While it is hard to ignore the monopolistic insinuations of the organization’s mission, there was validity to the need for cooperation.
At the time, professional football was just various clubs, spread primarily throughout middle America and the East Coast, who would play games all over, but followed no formal schedule or unified protocol.
The disparate nature of this era of professional football, prior to the formation of the NFL, created a ton of profit leaks and made it challenging for the teams to develop any sort of sustainability – instead they were effectively held hostage by whatever businesses were sponsoring the operation.
In the 100 years since the powers that be set out to create a unified professional football organization, the NFL has reached levels of financial success that are simply unfathomable to its founding fathers.
The league’s biggest revenue stream, its television contract, is part of a revenue sharing structure and pays each team over $250 million dollars a year, which is INSANE. This model truly embodies the founders’ vision for the league because by redistributing these profits, the NFL can ensure that one team won’t dominate the league through excessive earnings.
While there are detractors to this method who cite the potentially negative impacts that this has to the on-the-field product, one thing is undeniable – it has created a money making machine.
