Question
What’s the only defunct team that’s won multiple league championships? (This team won two titles, then folded.)
Answer
Canton Bulldogs. They won league titles in 1923 and 1924 but played their last game in 1926. When the league started in 1920, Jim Thorpe was on Canton’s roster, but he wasn’t playing for them when they won their titles. Four other teams that won titles in the ‘20s no longer exist: Akron Pros, Cleveland Bulldogs, Frankford Yellow Jackets and Providence Steam Roller.
