Default What are the Oldest Football Programs Known?
Posted By: davidcycleback

Early football didn't resemble modern football, so it can be like the unanswerable 1830s town ball versus baseball debate. It's not just the date and the team names, but what is the game they are playing. Someone will post a pic of an 1830s card of kids playing a game and ask "Is this the first baseball card?" My question will be, "Is it baseball?"
